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

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

<em>The statement that is incorrect is :</em>

<em>Robert wanted to see if his theory was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders.</em>

Explanation:

A theory can be described as a descriptive explanation of a phenomenon which is supported by valid experiments and careful examination of facts. As Robert, has not conducted any experiments nor has proved his study with reference to facts, hence it cannot be considered as a theory.

Robert wanted to see if his observation was true that cigarette smoke will influence web-building in spiders will be the correct statement that could be used.

A string of lights in a series circuit is not working. Which of the following is most likely the cause?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

A. A light burned out and "opened" the circuit

Explanation:

In a parallel circuit if a light bulb goes out the rest are fine because they each have independent routes to the battery. But in a series circuit when a light bulb goes out the rest goes out because the current is going in one pathway. To tell the difference of if it closed or opened the circuit, you have to know what they mean. Closing a circuit means a complete electrical connection, the  light bulbs will light and electricity will flow. Opening a circuit means the opposite. If the all the light bulbs have stopped working then the circuit is not complete, therefore it's open.
