C. They are able to be divided by a chemical reaction.
Before carbohydrates are absorbed, the enzymes sucrase,
maltase and lactase digest disaccharides into monosaccharides in the small
intestine. Sucrase breaks down sucrose into glucose and fructose, maltase
breaks down maltose into two glucose, and lactase breaks down lactose into
glucose and galactose.
Rotational symmetry is radial symmetry which means that the shape is the same after several rotations. In five-fold rotational symmetry<span> the number of distinct orientations in which the object looks the same is five. </span>
Living organisms whose shapes have five-fold rotational symmetry are sea stars (starfish) and sea urchin. They <span>can be mapped onto itself through rotation about a central point by an angle of 2π/5. </span>
Answer:
2n=46(duplicated)
Explanation:
Prior to cell division, which can either be meiotic or mitotic, the DNA content of the cell gets doubled in the Synthesis phase of the Interphase stage. In humans like myself, our cells consist of 23 pairs of chromosomes or 46 chromosomes. The DNA doubles in order for each daughter cell to get the correct number of genetic material.
After the S-phase, the chromosome number in the human cell does not change, just that each individual chromosome gets replicated or duplicated to form sister chromatids. Therefore, the human cell will contain 46 duplicated chromosomes or 92 sister chromatids after Synthesis phase and before the meiotic division.
Note that, humans are diploid organisms (2n) i.e. two set of chromosomes. Hence, they undergo meiosis to reduce their ploidy level from diploid (2n=46) to haploid (n=23).
