Answer:

Basically this depends on the type of cell division the cell undergoes.

if the cell undergoes reduction division of meiosis(n) the chromosome number will be reduced to 20 so the centromere will be 20, However if the cell undergoes multiplication division of mitosis,(2n) the centromere will be 40, since the chromosomes number will increases and sister chromatids holding the chromosomes are held at centro mere.

Which of these is correct regarding the permeability of a specific capillary type?

Vsevolod [243]

Red platelets are too vast to leave any capillaries. As capillaries are just a single cell thick and have thin porous dividers this implies substances can diffuse out of them effortlessly. Helpful substances, for example, oxygen and sustenance diffuse out of the blood in the vessels into the tissue liquid where it is then taken to the cells.
