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.

In many plants, stomata are found only on the lower surface of the leaf. The most likely explanation for this fact is that
sergejj [24]
D. Plants have adapted to deal with the sun in many different ways, and this is one. The stomata are regulated by guard cells, which are activated by different things depending on the species of plant, and guard cells are supposed to keep the stomata from staying open all the time and losing too much water to evaporation. So, the solution is to have the stomata on the bottom of the leaf to prevent direct sunlight contact (and therefore more evaporation), and guard cells to protect the stomata.

How do plasma cells form, and how do they help fight pathogens
xz_007 [3.2K]
<span>Plasma cells, they are also called  plasma B cells,  or effector B cells, are white blood cells that secrete large volumes of antibodies. They are transported by the blood plasma and the lymphatic system. Plasma cells originate in the bone marrow; B cells differentiate into plasma cells that produce antibody molecules closely modeled after the receptors of the precursor B cell. Once released into the blood and lymph,</span>

Determine whether each of the following is a characteristic of the life cycle of a seed plant, a seedless plant, or both. Double
Gnoma [55]

Double fertilization-plants with seeds (flowering plants), two male gametes joining with female gametophyte

Gametophyte generation-both (haploid, sexual stage stage-gametophyte, and the diploid stage that produces spores – sporophyte)

Endosperm formed-plants with seed because it is a tissue formed inside the seed which surrounds the embryo and provides nutrition

Mitosis-both (mitosis occurres in spores)

Spores develop into gametophytes-both but, in seedless plants sporophyte produces spores that will develop into a new organism (multicellular gametophyte) using mitosis, while spores of seed plants are produced internally and develop into more complex structures.

Which one of the following is a requirement for a good primer? Select one: a. Guanine and Cytosine should make up less than half
Alex

Answer: B. Melting temperatures of primer should be between 55-80 degree Celsius.

Explanation:

Bacause the melting temperature controls the binding of the primers to your template DNA. At melting temperature 50% of the primer molecules are bound to their corresponding target sequence. If the difference in melting temperature between the two primers is too high, it might be difficult to find experimental conditions where both primers can bind to their target.
