Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Robertsonian translocation occurs of 2 acrocentric chromosomes with no problems for the person carrying it in balanced form. In an unbalanced form, it produces chromosome imbalance leads to mental disorder or malformations.

In this translocation p arm or long arm join with other chromosome's long arm, carrier is normal due to the presence of 2 copies of all chromosome arms so there will be all the copies of essential genes.

Thus, the correct answer is - option A.

What is the atom structure?
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged). Atoms have different properties based on the arrangement and number of their basic particles.

Compare and contrast sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction?
notsponge [240]
Sexual reproduction is performed through gametes which means that each cell has half the number of chromosomes (for humans that's 23) . also called haploids, when the two cells combine the chromosmes cross creating a whole set of chromosomes. (46 in humans)

asexual reproduction is done through meiosis through somatic cells that already have two sets of chromosomes. (46 in humans) they duplicate the chromosomes and then spilt to create a perfect duplicate. the cells can also be know as diploids.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

They would be the enzymes that assimilate the presence of Q to generate a metabolism that encourages growth.

And also those that are X-forming, which is what is always present in cells.

Explanation:

Therefore, all the enzymes that assimilate the amino acid Q continue to function.

In simple words, in this situation, amino acid Q went from being a non-essential amino acid (because it was manufactured in-house) to being an essential amino acid (which, if or if, must be administered by the medium due to lack of own production in order to generate growth) .

Answer:

1. Aerobic respiration

2. Anaerobic respiration

3. 36 ATPs

4. 2 ATPs

Explanation:

According to the diagram attached to this question, the process of cellular respiration is described. Based on whether OXYGEN is present or not, cellular respiration can be divided into two:

- Aerobic respiration is the respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen. As shown in the top process, aerobic respiration starts with glycolysis → krebs cycle → Electron transport chain (ETC). At the end of these three steps, 36 ATP molecules results.

- Anaerobic respiration is the respiration that occurs in the absence of oxygen. As described in the bottom process of the diagram, anaerobic respiration starts with glycolysis and enters alcoholic or lactic acid fermentation depending on which product is formed (alcohol or lactic acid). At the end of the process, only 2 ATP molecules is synthesized.
