Answer:

D. the 23rd pair of chromosomes

Explanation:

Humans have a total of 23 pairs of chromosomes. Out of a total of 23 pairs, 22 pairs are autosomes. Autosomes are the chromosomes that carry the genes for all the genetic traits but are not involved in the sex determination of the individuals.

The 23rd pair of chromosomes in humans is of sex chromosomes as these chromosomes carry the genes to regulate the gender of the individuals. A human female has two copies of the X chromosome as sex chromosomes while human males have one X and one Y chromosome as their sex chromosomes. The Y chromosome carries "SRY" gene that codes for testes determining factor and regulates the development of testes in the embryo.

Define cell conjunctions
tamaranim1 [39]
It means that two or more cells connected together. 
You can look at the word 'cell' and 'conjunctions' separately. 'Cell'  is a tiny particle. 'Conjunctions' means 'two or more things connected', so just put the two meanings together.
Hope this helps. :)

Some interphase cells contain twice as much DNA as other interphase cells within the same tissue sample. Is this normal? Why?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Yes, Since the interphase cells in G2 would have twice the DNA as the interphase cells in G1 phase or start of S phase.

Explanation:

Interphase has three stages: G1, S and G2 phase. DNA replication occurs in the S phase and doubles the DNA content of the cell. So, the DNA content of the interphase cells of the same tissue depends on stages of interphase.  

The interphase cells which are in the G1 phase has half the DNA content as it is present in the interphase that has entered the G2 phase after completion of DNA replication in S phase.
