Meiosis creates gametes (eggs and sperm) with only a single chromosome set (haploid or n) from parental cells with two chromosome sets (diploid or 2n). During fertilization, the haploid sperm (n) and egg (n) fuse, producing a diploid zygote (2n). The cells of the zygote then divide by mitosis (which does not change the ploidy level) to produce an adult organism (still 2n) of the next generation. 
<span>In sexual life cycles, meiosis and fertilization keep the number of chromosomes constant from generation to generation. </span>

What drives deep ocean currents?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

B) difference in water density

Explanation:

The deep ocean currents are the cold ocean currents. They appear in the Arctic and Antarctic circles. As the warm ocean currents come from the low latitudes toward the high latitudes, they bring in warmer water on the surface. They start to cool off though as the near the high latitudes, so gradually they become cold ocean currents. As they become cold, the water is sinking below the less dense warmer water that is coming from behind, making a turn in the opposite direction and moving as deep ocean current toward the low latitudes. Once it reaches the low latitudes, this water will get warmer, and it will move toward the high latitudes, and the process constantly continues.

lana [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is -transfer fixed carbon dioxide to cells in which the Calvin cycle occurs

Explanation:

In C4 plants the light reaction and Calvin cycle occurs in two different cell that are mesophyll cell and bundle sheath cells. First, the CO₂ is fixed into 4- carbon oxaloacetate by an enzyme PEP carboxylase.  

Then this oxaloacetate is converted into a simpler form called malate. Malate molecule then enters into bundle sheet cell and there it releases one molecule of CO₂. This CO₂ enters the Calvin cycle which results in the sugar formation with the help of enzyme rubisco.

Therefore by releasing of CO₂ molecule by malate in bundle sheet cells, it transfer fixed carbon for the Calvin cycle to occur.
