Answer: different organisms have different chromosome numbers
Explanation: eukaryote cells have more than one chromosome
chromosomes are present in most cells all the time (not in erythrocytes), but cannot be visualised except during telophase of mitosis or meisosis
bacterial cells don’t have a nucleus
Answer:
a. Biomagnification
Explanation:
Biomagnification is the name given to the progressive accumulation of substances from one trophic level to another along a food chain. Thus, the substance will have its highest concentration in individuals who occupy trophic levels furthest from producers.
For biomagnification to occur, substances must be fat soluble (lipid soluble) and thus adhere to living tissues. Another feature of substances that undergo biomagnification is that they are generally not biodegradable or metabolized by the body.
The phenomenon is quite common with heavy metals (lead; mercury) and certain chlorinated and aromatic organic compounds with higher molecular mass, such as the insecticide DDT.
Answer:
64.
Explanation:
It is 64 because there are 20 amino acids with four bases ( A,T,C and G).
and genetic code can be read in triplets and also the four bases can occupy the positions. Eachh amino acid can be coded by the triplet codons. A triplet codon shows three nucleotides of the mRNA template that can code for amino acid
Therefore the number of codons is 4×4×4= 64.
