Answer:

2n to n, n to 2n

Explanation:

Meiosis is known as reductional division because in meiosis the chromosome number gets reduced to half in daughter cells so when sperm and egg cells undergo meiosis than the chromosome numbers get reduced from 2n to n. In humans, the chromosome number is 46 and it gets reduced to 23 after meiosis.  

When egg is fertilized by the sperm than the two chromosomes comes in the same cell and the number goes from n to 2n that mean in human it goes from 23 to 46.

Answer:

A. The synthesis of triose phosphates from 3-phosphoglycerate

Explanation:

ATP and NADPH are produced during light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis in chloroplasts. These molecules serve as an energy source and reducing power respectively during the Calvin cycle. Calvin cycle includes fixation of carbon into 3-PGA followed by reduction of 3-PGA into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (a triose phosphate).

The reduction step also uses NADPH as an electron donor. Two molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate make one molecule of glucose. A reduced ATP production during light-dependent reactions in chloroplast would not allow the reduction of 3-PGA into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Without the formation of triose phosphate, glucose synthesis will also reduce.

Population of Rabbits based on Leg Length
stich3 [128]

Answer:

B) The rabbits with medium length legs are the most stable and thus will out survive the others.

D) It is unlikely that evolution is occurring because none of the traits have disappeared from the population.

Explanation:

The graph shows that rabbits with longer legs are more likely to have a selective advantage that allows them to survive and reproduce than shorter  legs. Throughout the generations, it shows that the number of short legs have decreased, and the number of medium length legs neither have advantage or disadvantage.
