Meiosis produces cells (germ cells or gametes) with only half the DNA, or chromosomes, as normal cells (somatic cells). This is called haploid or referred to as "n" number of chromosomes. Normal body cells have doubke that, called "2n," or diploid. For humans our n = 23, so germ cells (haploid) have only 23 chromosomes, while somatic (normal body) cells have "2n" or 46 chromosomes. It is important to only carry half the number of chromosomes or DNA (n), because it is going to combine with another half (n) when sperm meets egg during fertilization. This n + n = 2n restores the diploid number of chromosomes (DNA) in a zygote, the first cell of a future embryo, fetus, and new human being.
The answer is TRUE because the process of a fish need to be in freshwater at its first parts of the growing process of a fish.

The correct answer is - 1/2
Explanation:
the ability to roll the tongue is dominant over those who can not roll the tongue. The man is Rr (man), heterozygous. The woman is recessive and can not roll
Rr (man) x rr (woman)---Parents
r
R Rr (roll)
r rr (cann't roll)
The probability of their children to able to roll = 1/2 = 50%
