<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option B) The parent cell has 24 chromosomes.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

This is because:

In Asexual reproduction only one parent is required, unlike sexual reproduction which needs two parents. Since there is only one parent, there is no fusion of gametes and no mixing of genetic information. As a result, the offspring are genetically identical to the parent and to each other.
The parent cell simply divides to form two daughter cells that are identical to the parent. In sexual reproduction, meiosis produces haploid gametes that fuse during fertilization to produce a diploid zygote.
Haploid gametes are not involved in asexual reproduction. A parent passes all of its genetic material to the next generation, and hence the number of chromosomes remains same.

Result: The number of chromosomes remains same in asexual reproduction.

The greater the concentration of sulfur and nitrogen oxides, the higher the pH of precipitation. True False

OLEGan [10]

False

Nitrogen and sulfur dioxide are acidic oxides in nature. The burning of fossil fuels and other sources are responsible for addition of these oxides in the atmosphere of earth. These oxides mixed with water vapor causes acid rain. Being acidic in nature they will have low pH value. Therefore, greater the concentration of sulfur and nitrogen oxides, will lower the pH value of precipitation.

hope this helps:)sorry if it doesnt

Depending on what you've been learning in bio so far, the glucose is used in a process called glycolysis, which basically turns the glucose into ATP (Energy) which the cell can use.

Answer: A Fixed Action Pattern

Explanation:

A fixed action pattern is an ethological term and off course a natural activity pattern that causes animals to act in a specific behavior pattern distinctive to their species. It is a pattern that is relatively unchangeable within the species and usually ends even when it is interrupted. You can say that, it is innate releasing mechanism or network where sign stimulus exists, once released from neural network; fixed action pattern leads to completion as well.

Answer:

Recessive

Explanation:

When there is a skipped generation, the trait must be RECESSIVE. For dominant trait, having 1 dominant allele will give you affected phenotype. It can never give a skipped generation.

A gene mutation is a change in the sequence of nucleotides that occurs during cell replication (mitosis and meiosis)within a sin

Shalnov [3]

True

Changes in the transcription of mRNA or the translation of a polypeptide are not considered to be mutations because they are not permanent changes to the cell.

Explanation:

The half-life of mRNA and proteins is short. mRNA has an average of 10 hours of life span while proteins have an average of several days. Therefore mutation in these biomolecules will only persist as long as this mutated mRNA of protein exists. After its life-span, the molecule is degraded and replaced by a non-mutated mRNA or proteins. This is because the piece of DNA that codes for the mRNA and subsequent protein is not mutated. A mutation on DNA is the permanent kind of mutations because DNA is a highly stable molecule that stores information about the cell.
