Gametes carry around half of the genetic information required to make a new individual, so each gamete contains 23 chromosomes.


To add, a gamete<span> is a haploid cell that fuses with another haploid cell during fertilization (conception) in organisms that sexually reproduce.</span>

Stels [109]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. prokaryotes

Explanation:

Archaea and bacteria are the organisms that come under prokaryotes. In Prokaryotes, pro indicate before and karyote indicate nucleus. So these organisms do not have a true membrane-bound nucleus in which they can store their genetic material.

As archaea and bacteria do not have membrane-bound nucleus their genetic material freely moves inside the cytoplasm in their cell. All the prokaryotes are unicellular organisms.

The organisms that have a well membrane-bound organelle like nucleus are called eukaryotes. The genetic material of these organisms are packed in their nucleus. They can be unicellular or multicellular.

Therefore the correct answer is B. prokaryotes.

Answer:

By using carbon-14 in the experiment in order to prove the statement.

Explanation:

Translocation occurs in the plant body in order to transport amino acids and sucrose from one part to another by the phloem tissues. In order to prove this, we have to incorporate radioactive element in the amino acid or sucrose which shows us that through which layer the amino acids and sucrose move in the plant body. For this purpose, carbon-14 can be used to trace the path of the translocation of amino acids and sucrose. Through this experiment we will find out that phloem layer is the path used by the plant to move amino acids and sucrose from one part to another.

What causes the refractory period in sodium channels after an action potential has been initiated? The sodium channel CANNOT be
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is because once a Voltage Gated Sodium Channels closes up after depolarization, they can not be reopened.The  transmission  of action potential is such a way that  they are propagated one after the other in a forward direction, and never backwards. Thus once a sodium channel depolarizes,it closes up,  to under go a shot rest.No matter the strength of the next stimulus it will not open. Then the channel ahead of it opens to depolarise  to conduct action  potential, this again after shut opening closes up for the channel ahead to open.  This short period of rest when the sodium channels closes up  is called refractive period.  However after sometime of rest the rested sodium channels open, from the inactivated stage to conduct action potential.
