Biology

larisa [96]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

8

Explanation:

I am assuming that this organism reproduces sexually. The body cell of the offspring will be the same as the parent. The reproductive cell of the organism will have half the amount of chromosomes as the body cell.

So if the parent has 8 chromosomes in its body cells then the offspring will have 8 chromosomes in its body cells.

When growing, as a cell gets bigger, what happens to its surface area to volume ratio?
marysya [2.9K]

<u>Answer</u>:

Surface area to volume ratio decreases.

<u>Explanation</u>:

When the cell enlarges beyond its capacity, it fails to supply enough material that can cross the membrane sooner so as to occupy the cellular volume. Hence the diffusion rate also decreases so as the ratio. The cell carry out its various functions to sustain through diffusion when diffusion rate is low it will ultimately affect the ratio. Bigger size affects the diffusion of the material to the out of the cell. as we know the diffusion occurs across the surface of the cell.

The human body contains roughly 100 trillion cells. approximately what percentage of those cells are independent microorganisms?
Lady_Fox [76]
I think the answer is 90%. According to the recent National institute of Health, Microbes in the human body estimates that 90% of the cells in human body are bacterial, fungal, or otherwise non-human. Despite the arguments that bacteria enjoys a commensal relationship with the humans hosts, only a fraction of the human microbia has been characterized.
