Could receiving extra chromosomes happen to the tasmanian devil? Why or why not?

Biology
1 answer:
Kazeer [188]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Yes, extra chromosomes can be received by the tasmanian devil.

Explanation:

Extra chromosomes can be received by the tasmanian devil due to tumor disease in the tasmanian devil. In the beginning the old genome of tasmanian devil has 13 chromosomes but with the tumor disease, it receives one extra chromosome and completed 14 chromosomes. Tumor occurs when the dead cells are not removed from the body and the new ones are formed.

The sole of a gecko's foot is covered with millions and millions of small, dry "hairs" that make direct contact with surfaces, a
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: Van der Waals forces

Explanation:

Van der Waals forces are weak intermolecular forces that depend on the distance between two particles. They are caused by correlations in the change in polarization between two nearby particles. To put it in other words, when a particle changes its polarization (becomes more positive on one end and more negative on the other), so does the adjacent particle, and the next one, and so on. This causes these particles to stick together weakly.

The tiny "hairs" increase the surface area of the gecko's feet in contact with the wall, which makes the bond stronger and allows it to support all of its weight.

Because experiments have shown that geckos stick well to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces, we can assume there aren't any hydrogen bonds present.

Ionic bonds can't be present either because geckos wouldn't stick to electrically neutral surfaces, as these bonds require charged molecules.

1. Does a scientific theory ever become a law? Explain

Answer:

a theory cannot become a law

Explanation:

the difference between a scientific theory and a scientific law because a theory is an in depth explanation of an observed phenomenon. a law is a statement about an observed phenomenon or an unifying concept (i.e.: newtons law or gravity - no explanation on how it works or what it is just that it exists.)
