Subtropical climate with summer highs near 77F and winters near 50F. They found fossils of palm trees on the shores but inland there were conifers& beech trees. The Antarctica circumpolar current took shape millions on years later resulting in polar climates.
16 x 2 = 32
Since chromosomes in the nucleus exist in pairs, human body cell contains 46 chromosomes arranged in 23 pairs.
Gametes are haploid, so their nucleus only contains a single set of 23 unpaired chromosomes.
Answer:
44
Explanation:
A somatic cell is diploid - it has 46 chromosomes. Half of these are from the mother, so there are 23 maternal chromosomes
A sex cell (gamete) is haploid - it has 23 chromosomes. There are (usually) two sex chromosomes in a diploid genome, either XX or XY, so there is one 1 in a haploid cell, giving a total of 22 autosomes
Barr bodies are inactive X chromosomes in a female somatic cell. This occurs to control dosage compensation (otherwise all the genes on the X in females would be expressed twice as much as they are in males). In a healthy female, there is normally one Barr body
A person with Kleinfelter's syndrome has two X chromosomes and one Y (XXY). They are biologically male, but have two X chromosomes. Therefore, one of these becomes a Barr body, as in females.
23 + 22 - 1 = 44
Gray matter consists of the <u>unmyelinated axons</u> of neurons.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The outer layer of the brain consists of the grey matter and white matter. The grey matter gets its name by the pinkish grey colour obtained by the greyish colour of the neurons and the red colour from the capillaries.
The grey matter consists of the dentrites, axons and cell bodies and this is essential for memory, attention and learning.
The unmyelinated axons are not covered by the fat protein myelin and these axons carry signals.They are the ones to help the processing of information in the brain.
