There's 39 chromosomes in the sperm cell. Why? Because sperm cells are gametes and therefore they are haploid cells meaning they have half the number of chromosomes of a regular cell or diploid cell.
78 / 2 = 39
Well , run off water plays a big part in this.
run off water is usually when water is in a puddle or on the ground and ran off into the sewer.
i hope this helps you a lot
Dalton's theory of atoms are invisible was later proven false. An atom can be further divided into protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The presence of an additional chromosome
Explanation:
Look at "pair" 21. See how there are THREE chromosomes instead of TWO? Normally, there would only be two chromosomes in each pair but this karyotype shows a trisomy (see def. below) of the 21st pair. This was caused by a nondisjunction mutation of the 21st pair. The is also the karyotype of a person with Down's Syndrome.
Definition of Trisomy:
A condition of the presence of three chromosomes in a pair instead of two. This normally causes developmental irregularity.
Answer:
The parent's genotypes are:
Ddpp - tall, white parent
ddPp - dwarf, purple parent.
Explanation:
This question involves two different genes coding for height and flower color in pea plants. The alleles for tallness (D) and purple color (P) are dominant over the alleles for dwarfness (d) and white color (p) respectively.
According to this question, a tall plant with white flowers is crossed with a dwarf plant with purple flowers to produce the following proportion of offsprings: 1/4 tall purple, 1/4 tall white, 1/4 dwarf purple, and 1/4 dwarf white.
Since some of the offsprings contain recessive alleles for both or either genes, the dominant traits of the parent is controlled by an heterozygous genotype. This means that the tall plant with white flowers has a genotype: Ddpp while the dwarf plant with purple flowers has the genotype: ddPp. In a cross between Ddpp × ddPp, 1/4 of each combination of alleles is produced in the offsprings (see punnet square in the attachment).
