The answer is 250 miles per hour.

To communicate, neurons send impulses to other neurons or muscle cells. Depending on the nature of information needed to be sent, some impulses are faster than the other. For example, if a person burns its hand, the information must be quickly sent to the central nervous system for quick reaction. Some impulses can achieve 250 miles per hour. But, for this, axon must be well insulated and very thick.

If a hamster has 22 chromosomes in its somatic cells, how many chromosomes would it have in its gametes

amm1812

Normally a hamster has 44 chromosome in its body but since it’s cut in half which leaves it 22 chromosomes (as stated above) the answer will be 11 gametes
22 divided by 2 = 11

EXPLANATION:
The sperm of the father, when it fuses with the egg, the embryo has 22 chromosomes
To find the number of chromosomes for each gamete, divide the total number by two eggs. The egg and sperm have half of the genetic information for an embryo

“The test of any theory is whether or not it provides answers to basic questions. Some well-meaning but misguided people think evolution is a reasonable theory to explain man’s questions about the universe.”Where did the space for the universe come from? Witch can be experimented to answer.
