When a cell divides by way of mitosis, it produces two clones of itself, each with the same number of chromosomes. When a cell divides by way of meiosis, it produces four cells, called gametes. Gametes are more commonly called sperm in males and eggs in females.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
A rainforest is humid, therefore, water uptake would likely not be an issue. However, rainforests have a huge number of trees, often these are very tall. These large trees might block out the sun from the smaller plants nearer the ground. This means they would struggle to properly photosynthesise, as they wouldn't have the necessary light energy.
Therefore, as a survival adaptation, it is likely that an allele that produced broader leaves for photosynthesis would be selected for in this population. Broader leaves would give a larger surface area for the plant to absorb light energy to perform photosynthesis.
Answer:
32 different gametes can be produced
Explanation:
The possibilities of formation of the number of different gametes in a population are determined by the number of heterozygous alleles for a given gene in the organism.
The formula to calculate the number of gametes is- 2ⁿ where n represents the number of heterozygous alleles
In the given question, the five genes of the organism are considered which form five type of heterozygous allele like A, a, B,b and so on. Therefore five types of heterozygous alleles is possible.
So using the formula we have 2⁵= 32 gametes.
Thus, 32 gametes is correct.
True.
Without the sun there would be no life on earth.
