Answer:
Random segregation of homologous chromosomes makes the two siblings differ from each other for 0-23 chromosomes.
Explanation:
Sexual reproduction adds genetic variations in the progeny by crossing over, independent segregation of homologous chromosomes and random fusion of gametes. Without crossing over, independent segregation of homologous chromosomes towards opposite poles during anaphase I of meiosis may result in two siblings to vary from each other for 0-23 chromosomes.
There is an equal probability of each of the two siblings to get a chromosome from mother or father. Hence, irrespective of the variations provided by crossing over, random segregation of homologous chromosomes makes the two siblings differ from each other for 0-23 chromosomes.
Law of thermodynamics states that matter and energy cannot be destroyed or created, but can be converted from one form to another. A balanced equation ensures that this basic principle is observed.
On the left-hand side of the equation (the reactants), there are 2 Nitrogen moles and 8 Hydrogen moles. After the reaction, the molecules are rearranged. Nonetheless, the moles of Nitrogen and Hydrogen in the products remain the same.
Answer: Option C) Reduction is the gain of electrons.
Explanation:
Reduction is a process involving a gain of electron(s), while oxidation involves a loss of electron(s).
Thus, an oxidizing agent is a substance that accepts electron(s) and become reduced, while a reducing agent is a substance that donates electron(s) and so becomes oxidized.
Thus, reduction is the gain of electron(s)
Answer:
<h3>C. microorganisms is your answer </h3>
Explanation:
- Minerals and gases are abiotic
- Microorganisms are biotic or living things.
- Bacteria, protozoa, algae, and fungi are microorganisms. And there're living organisms.
Answer:
The original water sample contains 830,000 cells per milliliter.
Explanation:
A sample of well water is tested for its bacterial content in a plate count assay. A one-milliliter sample of the water is diluted in a 1:10 dilution series. One milliliter of the fourth dilution tube is plated in a pour plate. After incubation, the plate has 83 colonies, indicating that the original water sample contained 830,000 cells per milliliter.
