The answer is A. The Y chromosome doesn't experience crossing-over.

The crossover of chromosomes is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. In males, X and Y chromosomes pairs but they cannot exchange genetic material except at the ends of the chromosomes called pseudoautosomal regions. So, greatly, the Y chromosome doesn't experience crossing-over.

Through the process of elimination:
B. A mother gives X chromosome and a father gives Y chromosome to the son.
C. The mitochondria cannot be passed in the nucleus of a cell since it is another organelle.
D. It is thought that mitochondria is passed only from mother to her offspring, so they cannot vary greatly.

Answer:

The right answer to this question is option D. Convergent evolution.

Explanation:

Convergent evolution is a process defined by when an organism develops the same, or at least near that, characteristics, for a specific reason, but they don't have the same origin. In this case, the cacti in both deserts have pretty much the same characteristics, and this happens because both these plants need water to survive, and in order to save it, they have barrel-shaped stems, short-lived leaves, and spines. All of these things help them in saving the water and capturing it when it's possible.

The convergent evolution is when both these organisms develop equally, but are not originally from the same place, the environment being the one to shape this.

When an animal confronts a "fight-or-flight" situation, the release of epinephrine promotes glycogen breakdown in the liver, hea

nika2105 [10]

Answer: and Explanation:

A.)The reason for the different products of glycogen breakdown in the two tissues is that glucose 6-phosphotase which is

a known enzyme that brings about hydrolysis of glucose 6-phosphate as a result of the creation of a phosphate group and free glucose is not available in heart and skeletal muscle, therefore,any glucose 6-phosphotase that is produced will just enters the glycolytic pathway and get converted to lactate through pyruvate, in the absence of Oxygen O2.

B) Whenever a situation involving fight or flight arises, the concentration of glycolytic precursors becomes high in order to prepare for muscular activity. Since the membrane is impermeable to any charged species, and at the same time glucose 6-phosphotase enzyme cannot be moved through the glucose transporter, then there cannot be a release of Phosphorylated intermediates from the cell. The blood glucose level must be maintained by the liver by releasing of glucose.

glucose that is later formed from glucose 6-phosphotase then enters the bloodstream.
