Answer:

25 and 21

Explanation:

if a homologous pair does not separate, then the homologous pair (when the spindle fibers are dragging it over to the other pole), then that chromosomes DNA will be the exact same as the paternal and maternals' DNA. During Meiosis I, there is the stage where the homologous pairs are lined up and pulled apart (where an exchange tends to happen), but if there pair doesn't mix, then the exact same DNA is duplicated, and thus, the same traits can be found in the daughter cell. If you are talking about an entire homologous pair being pulled over to one side of the nucleus, depriving the other side of a chromosomal pair, the daughter cells would then have 21 chromosomes, and the other one would have 25 chromosomes. The gametes, similarly, would have 21 chromosomes and 25 chromosomes.

Which of the following situations or phrases most accurately describes the citric acid cycle?
Bond [772]

The correct answer is: B) "All roads lead to Rome"

Citric acid cycle also called tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and Krebs cycle is a central process in cellular respiration. Citric acid cycle that connects carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism so “all the roads” from the different metabolic pathways come to this cycle.

Acetyl-CoA which is produced through the oxidation of pyruvate (pyruvate is a product of glycolysis) enters the cycle which then produces reduced electron carriers NADH, FAD2 and energy molecule ATP. These electron carriers will then pass their electrons into the electron transport chain and, through the process of oxidative phosphorylation, will produce more ATP.
