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.

Answer:

B. The city park contains fewer natural predators of the red squirrel than the nature reserve.

Explanation:

When compared to a nature reserve a city park really doesn't have any predators apart from some cats or birds. There really isn't much that can challenge the squirrel in order for their numbers to go down. There is no threat from food shortages and no threat from being eaten by larger animals that could live there.

Multiple sclerosis is a disease in which the myelin sheath is destroyed. What will happen to nerve conduction speed in affected
fredd [130]

Answer;

It is slowed down dramatically

Explanation;

-The myelin sheath can be described as an insulating layer that is composed of wrappings of the plasma membrane of glial cells that encloses the axons outside the brain and spinal cord. It is a fatty material that coats, protects, and insulates nerves, enabling them to quickly conduct impulses between the brain and different parts of the body.

-In multiple sclerosis the T cells either partially or completely strip the myelin off the fibers, leaving the nerves unprotected and uninsulated. These nerves are not as able to pass messages from the brain to the other body parts. The messages the nerves try to send are delayed or distorted and the messages the brain receives may be misinterpreted.

What do you call the overall force acting on a object
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

It's called a resultant force.

Explanation:

You see, there may be more than one direction of a force acting on an object so if both forces are of equal strength, the object doesn't move, but if one force is stronger than the other, the resultant force would tilt towards that force and the object would move that direction. It is the resultant force that decides where the object would go based on the forces acting on it.
