Each person carries 23 pairs of chromosomes in every cell that makes up their body, with the exception of gametes, which contain 23 SINGLE chromosomes. So when a sperm and egg meet, they then have 23 pairs. In the process of meiosis 'crossing-over' occurs, which means that the chromosomes get "shuffled". This means that the child can receive random traits not only from the parents, but also the grandparents. so there is about 2⁴⁶ possible pairings, excluding the risk for things such as Down-Syndrome
Answer:
whats the answers ??? it says the following so it has to be multiple choice
Explanation:
Answer:
Genetic drift
Explanation:
Genetic drift can also be referred to as allelic drift, it refers to the variation in allelic frequencies within a particular population over a period of time. It can also be referred to as the random fluctuations in the number of genotypes within a population. Genetic drift is not influenced by the environment and is usually more pronounced in a small population of organisms.
For example, a population of birds can consist of green feathers and blue feathers with the green feathers as the dominant allele, but as a result of random fluctuations, the offspring may all be with green feathers and hence could eliminate or reduce the allele responsible for blue feathers over time.
Answer:
the third one is correct
explanation
because atomic number and proton &electron number is same . neutron number is solved as atomic mass minus atomic number ( N=atomic mass - atomic number)
