Differences between eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells are _____.

1 answer:

6 0

The best answer is the third option namely an enclosed nucleus. One major difference between these two types of cells is that a prokaryote cell has no distinct nucleus enclosed with a membrane whereas in a eukaryote cell the genetic material, which is DNA, is packaged into chromosomes and found within a distinct nucleus that is enclosed with a membrane Examples of prokaryotes are bacteria such as staphylococcus species found as commensals on the skin of man and Streptomyces soil bacteria from which the antibiotic streptomycin is derived. Examples of eukaryotes are an amoeba, which is a unicellular protozoan that lives in water and a hepatocyte which is a liver cell in man.

Answer:

Genes coding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Explanation:

Chiasma is the connecting link between two non sister chromatids from homologous chromosomes. At chiasma chromosomal crossover takes place in which the genetic material is exchanged between the chromatids. During meiosis aneuploidy occurs if chiasma is absent or impaired due to a mutation in genes encoding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Aneuploidy is characterised by presence of abnormal number of chromosomes in cells. They can be 45 or 47 in number apart from the usual 46. Due to impaired chiasma, chromosome pair fails to separate and is passed on to the egg or sperm as it is hence there is one gamete with an extra chromosome and one gamete with a less chromosome. Aneuploidy can result in many genetic disorders like three copies of chromosome 21 can result in Down syndrome.
