The answer is autosomes.

<span>In a human diploid somatic cell (2n), there are 22 chromosomes present in two copies and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. This means there are 23 pairs of chromosomes - 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes. There are in total 46 chromosomes (23 pairs in 2 copies: 23 × 2 = 46).</span>

What product do all three reactions in Model 2 have in common?
belka [17]

Answer;

-They all provide water

Explanation;

In reaction A, the reactants are glucose and fructose , and the products are Sucrose and water. This is a condensation reaction, following the combination of two monosaccharides (glucose and fructose) forming a dissaccharide (sucrose) and water.

In reaction B, the reactants are two amino acids, that results to formation of a dipeptide and water; this is also a condensation reaction joining two amino acids monomers, to form a dipeptide and water.

-In reaction C, a monoglyceride combines with a fatty acid to form a diglyceride and water. This is also an example of a condensation reaction that results to formation of a diglyceride and water.

Therefore, the similarity of all the reactions is that they are all condensation reactions, with water as a common product.

The sternal angleis the least likely part of A. the sternum to fracture in the elderly. B. occurs at the sternoclavicular joint.
Bumek [7]

Sternal angle marks the joint between the sternum and the 2nd rib.

Option E.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Sternum is the breast bone which is a dorsi ventrally flattened bone present in thorax of human. It gives the support for the ribs where the ribs join. A sternum has three parts - Manubrium sterni, body of sternum and the xyphoid process.

The sternum has attachments of a total of 10 ribs and clavicle. The clavicle and the first rib joins in the Manubrium sterni, and the 3rd to 10th rib joins in the body of sternum. The 2nd rib joins in a facet which is partly in Manubrium sterni and partly in body of sternum. This place id also called the sternal angle. So the sternal angle marks the joint of 2nd rib to sternum.

Which scientists was the first to suggest that growth of cancerous cells was a result of abnormal chromosomes?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The correct answers are B and C. Walter Sutton and Theodor Boveri were the first to suggest that growth of cancerous cells was a result of abnormal chromosomes.

Explanation:

The chromosomal theory of inheritance is a scientific theory that relates chromosomes with the transmission of inheritable characters. It is also called the chromosomal theory of Sutton and Boveri in honor of the two people who independently developed it in 1902, Theodor Boveri and Walter Sutton. This theory states that the alleles, the Mendelian genetic factors, are on chromosomes.

Theodor Boveri and Walter Sutton independently developed the chromosome theory in 1902, Boveri, studying embryonic development in sea urchin and Sutton in this work on meiosis in grasshopper.

Sutton and Boveri's proposition in 1902 that chromosomes are the factors of Mendelian inheritance was controversial until its demonstration in 1915 by the work of Thomas Hunt Morgan in the Drosophila melanogaster fly.
