During your summer internship at a laboratory, you are given the opportunity to view a chimpanzee zygote under a microscope. You

see that it has 48 chromosomes. How many chromosomes would you expect to find in a chimpanzee’s egg cell?

Answer:

If the chimpanzee’s zygote has 48 chromosomes, one would expect to find 24 chromosomes in a chimpanzee’s egg.

Explanation:

In a living organism, somatic cells are diploid and possess the full chromosome load, while gametes -sex cells- possess half of the total chromosomes, they are haploid.

The zygote of any organism that reproduces sexually results from the union of a male gamete and a female gamete, so its chromosome load is complete.

<em>This means that if the chimpanzee has 48 chromosomes in its cells, the female sex cell - the egg - has 24 chromosomes.</em>

During transcription the DNA base sequence is transcribed into a complementary mRNA sequence. A codon table like the one shown b
DIA [1.3K]

Answer: Option B) No, even though the DNA sequence changed, the sequence still codes for the same amino acid, so no change in phenotype will occur.

Explanation:

Since the triplet codon ACG codes for the amino acid threonine, so also ACA codes for threonine, the single base change of Guanine (in ACG) to Adenine (ACA) is insignificant due to the degeneracy of the genetic code.

Thus, the sequence still codes for the same amino acid, so no change in phenotype will occur

What are some ways in which the structure of a compound influences its function?
Art [367]
 structure of a compound influences its function in many ways like we take example of phospholipid bilayer  1. The fact that the tails are hydrophobic means that they do not interact with water. When a bunch of phospholipids are floating around in water, they try to arrange themselves in a bilayer that shields the hydrophobic parts from water-based, or aqueous, surroundings.

2. The heads are hydrophilic and can then interact with water and other polar or charged substances on either side of the bilayer. The bilayer acts as a barrier that allows cells to maintain internal conditions that are different from external conditions, which is monumentally important for cells to operate properly. 

3. Phospholipids demonstrate the intersection of structure and function in another way, too. We already know that fatty acids can be saturated or unsaturated and that unsaturated fatty acids have bends in their chains. Those bends prevent fatty acids from packing close.

Which statement describe what happens with ATP during glycolysis
Delvig [45]

The first stage of cellular respiration is glycolysis. It does not require oxygen. During glycolysis, one glucose molecule is split into two pyruvate molecules, using 2 ATP while producing 4 ATP and 2 NADH molecules.
