Answer: The correct option is A (chromosome Number is reduced from diploid to haploid)
Explanation:
In sexual reproduction, offspring are produced by fusion of two different sex cells which usually come from two different parents. These sex cells are know as gametes.
Meiosis is a type of cell division that gives rise to gametes in which the chromosome number is halved. Thus, the gamete cell is said to contain a haploid number (n) of chromosomes.
A diploid cell has two sets of chromosomes: one from the male parent and the other from the female parent. When a diploid cell undergoes meiosis the following occurs:
--> the chromosomes replicate once and
--> the nucleus and cell duplicate ( divide equally) twice.
As a result, the diploid parent cell gives rise to four haploid gamete cells. Therefore the statement "chromosome Number is reduced from diploid to haploid ' is true concerning meiosis I.
Answer:
The net annual primary productivity of a particular wetland ecosystem is found to be 8,000 kcal/m2. If respiration by the aquatic producers is 12,000 kcal/m2/year
Gross primary productivity in a region of tropical forest is 1,200 kcal/m-Tyr. In this ecosystem, producers are. 25% efficient. 16,000 kcal/m²/yr
