Answer:
(B) calmodulin
Explanation:
Calcium in cells acts as second messenger molecule which regulates the very important physiological and cellular process of cell-like neurotransmission, cell migration, secretion, fertilization and many others.
Calcium acts as a messenger by binding to a calcium-binding protein called calmodulin. Calmodulin forms complex with 4 calcium ions through the side amino acids present in the structure of calmodulin.
Thus, calmodulin is the correct answer.
Chromosomes exchange genetic material in step 3.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>
The meiosis is the type of cell division that takes place for gametogenesis. The meiosis has two phases - meiosis I and meiosis II.
The meiosis I has the events like crossing over and independent assortment which leads to the mixing of genes between homologous chromosome pairs and separation of homologous chromosome pairs. So the two cells that are produced from the meiosis I are genetically different. The step 3 shows the crossing over of prophase 1 of meiosis I. So, it shows the genetic difference between the offsprings and leads to genetic variation.
The oxygen in the water molecule attracts the most electrons and in so doing attracts a slightly negative charge.
