Answer:

Option D, a group of organisms that can mate with each other and produce fertile offspring

Explanation:

Organisms belonging to a certain species are sexually compatible in mating or interbreeding. They have the natural potential to mate and produce offspring that can further mate with each other to produce further fertile offspring and this process must go on. An organism that reproduce asexually cannot be easily classified into  a species. Also  hybrid organism (that reproduce both sexually and asexually)  cannot be classified into species.

Hence, option D is correct

Choose the accurate statements about how communication by the nervous and endocrine systems differs. Check all that apply. Check
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The nervous system releases neurotransmitters at synapses at specific target cells & The endocrine system reacts more slowly to stimuli, often taking seconds to days.

Explanation:

The nervous system is very specific with where the neurotransmitters go so they will affect target cells. The endocrine system is slower than the nervous system because the hormones travel through the blood so it takes much longer to reach the designated area.

Human gametes should contain chromosomes each. This number would be considered the
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Human gametes should contain <u>23 </u>chromosomes each. This number would be considered the <u>haploid </u>number for humans. The symbol for this is <u>n</u>.

Explanation:

Gametes are an organism's reproductive cells. Female gametes are called egg cells, and male gametes are called sperm.

In most organisms, somatic cells (all cells except for gametes) are diploid, whereas the gametes tend to be haploid. Haploid cells have a single set of chromosomes, while diploid cells have two sets of chromosomes.

When it comes to human cells, somatic cells have 46 chromosomes. This means that each gamete has 23 chromosomes. This is called the haploid number and is marked by a lowercase <em>n</em>. This number refers to the total number of chromosomes found in a gamete (for human cells n=23).
