A male giraffe has 31 chromosomes in each of its sex cells. How many would be present in its body cells?

Answer:

62 chromosomes.

Explanation:

Sex cells are formed undergoing meiosis, which means that they contain a haploid number of chromosomes. (Half the number that somatic/body cells contain). 31 is half of 62, which means that the diploid number of chromosomes in the body cells of a giraffe would be 62.

❖ Your body might need new cells to replace the old, damaged, cells that need to be repaired, or dead cells. Your body might also need more cells for you to grow.

A few years after a devastating forest fire, pioneer trees become established. after another 50 years, those trees are replaced
Keith_Richards [23]
Abiotic factors composed of water, light, temperature and air etc. due to fire's this primary succession was completely destroyed. Their remaining organic bodies were decomposed in soil texture.

In order to establish secondary succession there is need of water and light, because water help in translocation of food and nutrients in plants while light is important for photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis need three major components. these are H₂O, CO₂ and light, all these components are abiotic part of ecosystem. However, when secondary succession occurs, then light play a key role in changing the composition of plant community. The best example is the difference in height of plants of different community.

Answer:

I'm thinking observation vs inference

Explanation:

she does her research about the situation and then comes up with an idea. the idea can be seen as an inference since at the end of the article it says "proving to be more impossible than not", which leads me to believe it's more of an observation vs inference situation.

Within a given species, which two types of cells have the equivalent amounts of dna?
kiruha [24]
The original question has a set of choices. This is within the context of cell division. The choices are:

A. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell in G2 of interphase
B. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell immediately after the completion of meiosis II
C. A cell in G1 of interphase and a cell in metaphase II of meiosis
D. A cell in G2 of interphase and a cell in metaphase II of meiosis
<span>E. None of the above.
</span>
The correct answer is C. A cell in G1 is diploid and the cell in meiosis II is haploid but the amount of DNA still equivalent as each chromosome in the haploid cell consists of two chromatids. G2 cells already had been through the S phase therefore the genetic material is already doubled. A cell immediately after meiosis II has half the genetic material.
