Soaring and gliding birds like eagle, vulture, albatross, sea gulls etc are efficiently adapted to utilize the air currents in their flight.
Explanation:
The soaring flight and gliding movements are special adaptation developed by birds to meet the challenge of increasing turbulent air current.
Birds have the extraordinary skill of flying smoothly and effortlessly even at very high altitudes
Birds soar by using thermal and dynamic soaring techniques.
Gliding movements help the birds to deflect the wind downward which helps to lift their bodies in the air. They do not flap their wings during gliding but just dive straight into the air which helps to increase their speed.
The adaptation of the bird’s structure with very light but strong bones on their wings helps to soar and glide in the air.

Answer:
47
Explanation:
We all know that gametes like egg cell and sperm have haploid set of chromosomes but here as per this question she has produced 2 copies of chromosome 21. For the sake of maintaining haploidy, she was supposed to have only a single copy of chromosome 21 as a result of which her egg cell was supposed to have 23 chromosomes not 24.
But, this is a case of non dis-junction. Also, in a normal sperm there are no such copies of any chromosome i.e. there is a haploid set of chromosomes. It means that sperm must be having only 23 chromosomes. So we can easily infer that when the egg cell and sperm will fuse, the zygote will have 47 chromosomes (24 from egg cell and 23 from sperm).
Answer:
38 ATP
Explanation:
On complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose yields 38 ATP. Break up of energy production is given below:
- During glycolysis 2 ATP and 2 NADH is produced.
- During formation of Acetyl CoA, 2 NADH is produced.
- During Citric Acid Cycle, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH₂ are produced.
Finally during Electron transport chain, reduced coenzymes NADH and FADH₂ oxidised to release ATP. Each NADH produce 3ATP and each FADH₂ produces 2 ATP. Altogether 10 NADH is produced during entire process of cellular respiration which yield 30 ATP and 2 FADH₂ yields 4 ATP. Therefore, on complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose yields 38 ATP.
