Answer:

The correct answer is B the extra chromosome has typically undergone significant rearrangements.

Explanation:

Trisomy is a type of aneuploidy which is characterized by the presence or occurance of an extra copy of a particular chromosome.As a result the chromosomes in which the trisomy is occurring contain 3 arms instead of 2. Trisomy occur due to non disjunction  of a particular chromosome during meiosis.

 As a result a second copy of chromosome is present inside the cell containing that abnormal chromosome.If the same thing occur in the cell of gamet undergoing fertilization then there is a high chance that the embryo will carry that extra chromosome.

 In case of humans  Trisomy result in the rearrangement extra chromosome which ultimately give rise to

1 Trisomy 18 occur due to extra copy of chromosome no 18

2 Trisomy 13 occur due to extra copy of chromosome no  13

3  Trsomy 21 occur due to extra copy of chromosome no  21  which is also called down syndrome.

Why are individual chromosomes more difficult to see during interphase than during mitosis?
bogdanovich [222]
In the interphase, they are really thin, just one strand which is only a few atoms wide (very challenging for an optical microscope and not too easy for the electronic one)

Naddik [55]

Answer:

A & B

Explanation:

Leucine and phenylalanine have hydrophobic side chains, which means that they can interact with valine in the pocket. All other aminoacids on the list have polar (two electrically charged) side chains and cannot form hydrophobic pockets.

Two reasons why it is easy to harvest perlemoen
lianna [129]

Perlemoen is reasonably easy to take available of the ocean and do not really required huge and expensive equipment. The poachers take out millions of rands worth of Perlemoen with relatively simple and cheap equipment such as wet suites, googles and flippers. The most expensive equipment they use are their boats and vehicles. In comparison with the lucrative industry the costs of poaching are low. Perlemoen are often the smaller, younger abalone of the species that are taken because they are quite simply and easier to harvest.

 

1.       The younger perlemoen are found closer to the shoreline and often bunched together and they can get a whole whack of them at one spot.


2.       The strandlopers harvested the perlemoen from the rocks during low tide without the need for diving.
