Answer - D
Gametes always have half the number of chromosomes compared to the somatic cells, hence an unfertilized egg would have half the chromosomes from the mother, and a fertilized egg will contain diploid number of chromosomes. Half of them from inherited from each of the two parents.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The fertilized egg has 46 chromosomes since it is fertilized by the sperm which makes 23 + 23= 46 so, it is fertilized by both parents. HINT: The sperm is produced in the uterus by the father. An unfertilized egg has 23 chromosomes since it is not fertilized by it's father. Therefore, it is only fertilized by it's mother since the mother produces the egg through the ovaries.

Which of the following statements is true about isotopes?
kirill115 [55]
Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, although all isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons in each atom. The term isotope is formed from the Greek roots isos and topos, meaning "the same place"; thus, the meaning behind the name is that different isotopes of a single element occupy the same position on the periodic table.
