If a Cod Fish Parent has 82 Chromosomes in its Body Cells, how many

Chemistry
1 answer:
MakcuM [25]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

41 chromosomes each

Explanation:

Meiosis is the means by which sexually-reproducing organisms produce gametes /sex cells used during reproduction. Meiosis is a kind of cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) with a reduced number of chromosomes (by half). This means that meiosis reduces the chromosomal number of parents cell in the gametes.

Based on this, if a cod fish that possesses 82 chromosomes in Its somatic or body cells undergo meiotic division in order to produce gametes. The chromosome number of the sex cells will be reduced by half i.e. from 82 chromosomes (diploid, 2n) to 41 chromosomes (haploid, n)

Calculate the molar concentrations of H+ and OH− in solutions that have the following pH values:
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

pH = - log[ H⁺]

8.26 = - log[ H⁺]

[ H⁺] = 10⁻⁸°²⁶ mole / l

= 5.49 x 10⁻⁹ moles / l

[ H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ / 5.49 x 10⁻⁹

= .182  x 10⁻⁵ moles / l

b )

10.25 = - log[ H⁺]

[ H⁺] = 10⁻¹⁰°²⁵ mole / l

= 5.62 x 10⁻¹¹ moles / l

[ H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ / 5.62 x 10⁻¹¹

= .178 x 10⁻³ moles / l

c )

4.65 = - log[ H⁺]

[ H⁺] = 10⁻⁴°⁶⁵ mole / l

= 2.24 x 10⁻⁵ moles / l

[ H⁺] [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴

[OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ / 2.24 x 10⁻⁵

= .4464 x 10⁻⁹ moles / l

What type of consumer are bears?
sashaice [31]
Bears are omnivores (and scavengers), meaning they eat both plants and animals.
it can be both a primary consumer (if it eats plants) and secondary & tertiary consumers (if it eats a plant-eating animal). so it depends on what it eats.

Iron pyrite, FeS2, is known as Fool's Gold because it is a shiny yellow solid which is similar in appearance to gold. Iron pyrit
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero.

In order to know the formula of the negative Sulfur ion in pyrite, we must determine its oxidation state.

Let us make the make the oxidation number of sulfur = x

Therefore, FeS₂:

                      +2 +2x = 0

                      +2 = -2x

                       x = -1

The formula of the negative ion is S⁻

The density of mercury is 13.5 g/mL and the density of water is 1.00 g/mL. If a mercury barometer reads 805 mmHg, what is the ba
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Barometric pressure will be 1086.75 cm H_{2}O

Explanation:

We know, P=h\rho g

where P is barometric pressure, h is height of liquid inside barometer, \rho is density of liquid and g is gravitational constant

If barometric pressure is x cm H_{2}O for 805 mm Hg then-

x\times (1.00g/mL)\times g=(805\times 10^{-1}cm Hg)\times (13.5g/mL)\times g

So, x=1086.75 cm H_{2}O

Hence barometric pressure will be 1086.75 cm H_{2}O
