The process that reduces the number of chromosomes in half is called Meiosis
Answer: Lysosome
Explanation:
The lysosome is an organelle found in cells of eukaryotes.
Its functions include:
I) It contains several hydrolytic enzymes such as
- glycosidases that break down complex sugars (polysaccharides),
- proteases that break down proteins,
- and sulfatases that hydrolyze sulphur-containing compounds,
- other enzymes for lipids and Nucleic acids
II) it also digest worn out organelles, and engulfed viruses and bacteria.
III) and helps to remove wastes from the cell.
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic condition that distorts the shape of the hemoglobin. This reduces the capacity of the red blood cells to carry oxygen. Another effect is that the distorted red blood cells come together forming a heavy and compact collection of cells that can block the flow of blood. The sedimentation rate is increased by sickle cell anemia.
Answer:
Cation-exchange capacity is a measure of how many cations can be retained on soil particle surfaces. Negative charges on the surfaces of soil particles bind positively-charged atoms or molecules, but allow these to exchange with other positively charged particles in the surrounding soil water
