The different number of maternal and paternal chromosomes possible will be 8. that is option A is correct.
Chromosomes are defined as the genetic material within the body. They are thread like structures within the DNA and are made of proteins. In general human body has 23 pairs of chromosomes out of which 22 are numbered while 1 is the sex chromosome. Gametes are genetic material that are generally haploid in nature and they carry only one chromosome along with them. According to the question, there are 6 diploid chromosomes present which means there are 3 pairs of chromosomes. So each gametes will have a total number of 3 chromosomal pairs irrespective of their type that is maternal or paternal. Therefore combination of maternal and paternal chromosomes are given by
Combination = 2ⁿ where n is pair of chromosomes and here n = 3
Combination = 2³ = 8

E. 6
Answer:
We can immediately cross-out C
We can also cross-out A.
Now we have B and D. Commensalism and Mutualism. Now, commensalism is an association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither benefit nor harm.
Mutualism is the doctrine that mutual dependence is necessary to social well-being.
I would say D: Commensalism. Both fish can survive without each other.
The plant with the root system is called the rootstock
the portion of the plant with the buds is called the scion
Answer:
The answer to the question is C ectothermy
Explanation:
The answer to the question is C ectothermy
The traits which all organisms with no internal thermoregulation have are called an Ectothermy. Ectothermy is an organism in which the inner behavioral heat sources are significant in the regulation of body temperature. This organism depends on their ecological heats source, which allows them to work at an efficient rate. Some of this organism stays in an area where temperatures are nearly constant.
