Gametes, or sperm and egg cells are both haploid cells, meaning that they have half the amount of chromosomes that regular body cells do, meaning that the sperm cell of this bird would have 32 chromosomes.
Answer:
recessive
Explanation:
A lethal allele is a gene variant associated with a mutation in an essential gene, which has the potential to cause the death of an individual. In general, lethal genes are recessive because these alleles do not cause death in heterozygous individuals, which have one copy of the normal allele and one copy of the allele for the lethal disease/disorder. In recessive lethal diseases, heterozygous individuals are carriers of the recessive lethal allele and can eventually pass the 'defective' allele on to offspring even though they are unaffected; whereas dominant lethal diseases are caused by dominant lethal alleles, which only need to be present in one copy to be fatal. In consequence, the frequency of recessive lethal alleles is generally higher than dominant lethal alleles because they can be masked in carrier individuals. Some examples of human diseases caused by recessive lethal alleles include, among others, Tay-Sachs disease, sickle-cell anemia, and cystic fibrosis.
Answer:
The correct answer is - A. phototropic and gravitropic.
Explanation:
A plant seedling grows usually two-direction shoots or stems towards light and roots towards the soil or in the direction of gravity. The movement of the plant toward a specific stimulus or effect parts is called tropism and different parts move in a different direction.
The movement of the roots of the plant is usually towards the direction of soil or gravity and this is called gravitropic. The shoot or stem grows from the seedling towards the direction of light and it is called phototropic.
Environmental impact and radioactive waste
Answer:
An ionic bond.
Explanation:
A strong electrostatic force of attraction will develop between the oppositely charged ions. For example, sodium chloride (salt) is essentially made of a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion.
