Answer:

The study of fossil mammals comes under vertebrate paleontology.

Explanation:

Paleontology is the study of fossils which tries to explain the evolution of organisms, their environment and interactions with each other. The various sub divisions of paleontology are vertebrate paleontology, invertebrate paleontology , micropaleontology, paleobotany, palynology etc.

The study of vertebrate fossils, from primitive fishes to the immediate ancestors of modern mammals is known as vertebrate paleontology. Invertebrate paleontology deals with the study of invertebrate animal fossils, such as molluscs, echinoderms, arthropods and annelid worms. Paleobotany studies fossil plants which includes the study of fossil algae and fungi in addition to land plants.  Micropaleontology is the study of microscopic fossil organisms, regardless of the group to which they belong.

A zonkey comes from a zebra(46 diploid chromosomes) and a donkey (62 diploid chromosomes).
MAVERICK [17]
Q1. The answer is 53 chromosomes

Zebra has 44 diploid chromosomes (2n = 44). Zebra's gametes are haploid, so they will have 22 chromosomes (n = 22).
Donkey has 62 diploid chromosomes (2n = 62). Zebra's gametes are haploid, so they will have 31 chromosomes (n = 31).
After fusion of zebra's gamete (n = 22) and donkey's gamete (n = 31), the zonkey's zygote will have 22 + 31 = 53 chromosomes


Q2 and Q3. In the meiosis, the number of chromosomes is reduced by half. Since zonkey has 53 chromosomes, after meiosis it should have 53/2 chromosomes, which is not the whole number. This is the reason why they cannot produce normal gametes that will result, after the fusion, in the production of normal diploid zygote

If the unknown is heterozygous for a trait, then approximately half of the offspring will display the recessive phenotype. If all the offspring carry dominant phenotype, Then the unknown genotype is homozygous.
