The egg cells have half as many chromosomes as the body cells.

The question is incomplete as it lacks the options which are:

1. The number of chromosomes depends on the size of the scorpion.

2. There are half as many chromosomes in egg cells.

3. There are twice as many chromosomes in egg cells.

4. The number of chromosomes is the same in both.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-2

Explanation:

The species of Scorpions are a diploid organism with a chromosome number ranging from 16 to 24.  The diploid organism contains homologous chromosomes in pairs which if fuses with another diploid cell will increase the ploidy level to tetraploid and more.

So to maintain the ploidy level, the organism produces gametes undergoing meiosis which reduces the chromosome number to half that is diploid cell becomes a haploid cell.

So, the egg cell contains half of the chromosomes as compared to the somatic cells ad thus option-2 is the correct answer.

If you were an electron, and your home town was your nucleus, what would you need to do in relation to your home town to emit li
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Option B, Move closer to your home town

Explanation:

The options for the given question are as follows -

A) Knock down your previous house and build a bigger one.

B) Move closer to your home town.

C) Move further away from your home town.

D) Stay where you are but speed up your daily life

Solution -

Electrons carry negative charge while nucleus carries positive charge due to the presence of positively charged proton ions and neutral ions (which has no charge). All the electrons are attracted towards the nucleus due to its positive charge. The orbit on which an electron revolves around a nucleus has higher energy level as compared to the energy levels located in between the space of electron and nucleus.  

While moving from a high energy orbital to a low energy level orbital, an electron releases some energy.  Hence, in order to move closer to home, electron needs to push itself toward the nucleus by releasing energy

Hence, the given option is B

Answer:

Water flowing over Earth's surface or underground causes erosion and deposition. Water flowing over a steeper slope moves faster and causes more erosion. Erosion and deposition by slow-flowing rivers create broad floodplains and meanders. Deposition by streams and rivers may form alluvial fans and deltas.
