A diploid cell in a plant undergoes chromosome duplication but fails to divide properly, initiating a tetraploid (4n) branch. Th

is branch produces a 4n flower. What can happen next?
The 4n flower produces 1n (haploid) gametes, which then cross-fertilize with gametes from the original diploid parent species to produce fertile offspring.
The tetraploid (4n) flower produces 2n gametes and may then be able to self-pollinate to produce fertile 4n offspring.
The 4n flower produces 4n (tetraploid) gametes, which then self-fertilize to produce fertile offspring.
The 4n flower produces 2n gametes, which then cross-fertilize with gametes from the original diploid parent species to produce fertile offspring.

The correct answer is: The tetraploid (4n) flower produces 2n gametes and may then be able to self-pollinate to produce fertile 4n offspring.  

Gametes are produced via meiosis, which is reduction cell division, meaning that cell from diploid (2n) becomes with haploid (n) number of chromosomes. In the example above, 4n flower will produce 2n gametes. Ovary of the flower produces ovule-the female gamete which is ready for fertilization. The anther produces pollen that lands on a mature stigma of a flower and grows a pollen tube down into the flower. Pollen then produces male gametes-sperm by mitosis and releases them for fertilization.

Considering the body’s organization from atoms to organ systems, in which level of organization are proteins like collagen? Desc
storchak [24]

Answer:

According to the levels of organization in the body, the level of organization in which proteins, like collagen, are found is the molecular level, allowing the structural support and the performance of other essential functions.

Explanation:

Proteins are biological macromolecules, polymers of units called amino acids. These molecules belong to the molecular level of organization in living organisms.

The level of organization where proteins are found allows them:

  • <em>Form an essential part of cells.</em>
  • <em>Contribute to the construction of tissues and organs.</em>
  • <em>Participate in metabolic reactions, as enzymes. </em>
  • <em>Defense of the organism, in the form of antibodies.</em>
  • <em>Regulation of vital functions, forming hormones.</em>

Other functions of proteins are to integrate the cell membranes and perform transport function, to form receptors and to be an energy reserve.

D. Explain the relationship between the pulse recorded in the finger and heart muscle contraction ______________________________
Setler [38]

Answer:

D. Heart contraction and pulse are connected with one another.

E. Atrial diastole and ventricle diastole.

Explanation:

Heart construction and pulse of an individual are connected as one can hear the pulse every time contraction of the heart is completed. Pulse can be understood by this that it represents the number of the contractions is completed by heart each time.

In the pulse tracing, there are two parts of the heart that are discernible which represents the contraction of the heart that are Atrial diastole and ventricle diastole.
