About how long after fertilization do human cells lose totipotency

Biology
1 answer:
Oliga [24]3 years ago
5 0

The human cells will lose totipotency about 4 days after fertilization. The fertilized egg creates a single totipotent cell called  a zygote. The zygote divides into identical totipotent cells. Approximately about 4 days, the totipotent cells begin to specialize and becomes pluripotent.

Darwin examined remains of extinct organisms while on his journey. The remains had been preserved in rock for a very long time.
garri49 [273]
The remains are called fossils. Fossils are remnants of animals, plants, or microorganisms that have been solidified in the process of fossilization, where the organism is surrounded by sediment, minerals, and other solid objects which are compressed and heated around the organism over time. This forms a solid mass with the preserved organism inside, other known as a fossil.

In your own words, give a brief overview of the process of photosynthesis. Include where each phase place within a plant cell.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Photosynthesis has two parts: the light-dependent reactions and the dark reactions (the Calvin cycle). Photosynthesis in a general sense, uses CO2 and water to create C6H12O6 (glucose) and oxygen. The light-dependent reactions use water to make oxygen, and a reduced energy carrier (NADPH) is also created. The Calvin cycle uses carbon dioxide and ATP to create G3P for glucose.

The light-dependent reactions occur on the membrane of the thylakoid and also involve shuttling electrons across different complexes (photosystem II and photosystem I), eventually causing ATP to be created with a proton gradient.

The light-independent reactions/Calvin cycle occur in the stroma of the chloroplast and also involve shuffling carbons around. Carbon dioxide is processed in three stages, and glucose is made from 6 CO2.

timurjin [86]

A marine biologist is examining the effects of oil pollution on a population of birds known as seagulls (Larus canus). She is particularly concerned that oil pollution may reduce the number of eggs raised in a seagull nest. During one breeding season, she counted the number of eggs present in a sampling of six seagull nests near each of the 14 refineries throughout the state. She discovered that seagulls laid and raised an average of four eggs per season. To confirm her hypothesis, the researcher must now examine seagull nests that have not been exposed to oil pollution. The researcher believes she is correct, and so expects to find D) 4-6 eggs per nest.
