Enzymes and acidic juices in the stomach, which break proteins down into smaller molecules, is known as proteolytic enzyme.

Proteolytic enzyme (also known as protease) is any group of enzymes that break down the long chainlike proteins molecules into smaller molecules (peptides) and later into amino acids. In the stomach, protein digestion takes place. The three main proteolytic enzymes; pepsin (produced by the stomach), and trypsin and chymotrypsin (produced by the pancreas) breaks down proteins into polypeptides which are eventually broken down into amino acids by several exopeptidases and dipeptidases.

Aneli [31]

Answer: a. Genetic recombination (crossing over)

b. Can also be explained in terms of crossing over

c. Non disjunction of homologous chromosomes in meiosis 1

Explanation:

The process that allows for the transfer of both the paternal and maternal materials to is the crossing over process that takes at meiosis 1 changing them to secondary spermatocytes. While they are still primary spermatocytes, they are still diploid cells having both the maternal and paternal chromosomes. But since the spermatozoon is an haploid cell, it is able to retail some of both parents chromosome by the crossing over event which takes place between homologous paternal and maternal chromosomes allowing them to exchange materials. Thus the chromosomal contents of the primary spermatocyte differs from that of the spermatozoon.

C. This can occur as a result of the one of the homologous chromosome pair refusing to separate at meiosis 1 with one gamete containing 4 chromosomes/8 sister chromatids and the second having 2 chromosomes/4 sister chromatids.
