An organism has gametes that contain 18 chromosomes how many chromosomes are in each of its body cells

Biology
1 answer:
Viefleur [7K]3 years ago
8 0
The number of the chromosomes in each of its body cells from the number of chromosomes of its gametes would be 9. It is because the number of chromosomes in a gamete must be halved in order to achieve the number of chromosomes present in each body cell which is important for cell division.

5. Which of the following is an example of active transport?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

D (proteins moving ions from low to high concentration across a cell membrane)

Explanation:

Active transport, by definition, is a type of substance transport that requires energy (typically in the form of ATP). Having said that, we can immediately eliminate B (aka water diffusion throughout the cytoplasm of a cell), as diffusion (osmosis in this case) does not require any expenditure/spending of energy. Next, we can cancel A and C because although they do require energy, there is no transport involved. Thus that leaves us with D. D is not only the answer because of the process of elimination but also b/c the ans. choice says that ions are being moved from low to high concentration, which is against the concentration gradient and thus requires energy. Hope you found this helpful! :)

What are glaciers? A glacier is a huge mass of ice that moves slowly over land.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

What do they look like?

Glaciers look like solid blocks of ice.

What climate do they exist in?

Regions that have high snowfall in winter and cool temperatures in summer.

Where can you find them?

Most of the world's glacial ice is found in Antarctica and Greenland, but glaciers are found on nearly every continent, even Africa.

What do you think we can learn from glaciers?

Glaciers preserve bits of atmosphere from thousands of years ago in these tiny air bubbles, or, deeper within the core, trapped within the ice itself. This is one way scientists know that there have been several Ice Ages. Scientists are also finding that glaciers reveal clues about global warming.

(The last question is unclear to me, so I'm going to take a guess as to what you meant)

Why is sea ice so important?

Arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and helps moderate global climate.

I hope this helps!! :3

why are you allowed to use the coarse adjustment when you focus the low power objective lens but not when you focus the high pow
FinnZ [79.3K]
Because you will focus past ("overshoot") your specimen. (Like using a race car as a shopping cart: it's too fast, and you'll fly past the cereal and never even see it before you realize you need to stop.) Also: you risk crushing the slide and objective against each other (on older or cheaper scopes), and that would be a costly (and embarrassing) mistake.
