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)

A pure sample of a new chemical compound was analyzed and was found to have the following mass percentages: Al 31.5 %; O 56.1 %;
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The answer to your question is empirical formula   Al₃O₉S

Explanation:

Data

Al = 31.5 %

O = 56.1 %

S = 12.4 %

Process

1.- Look for the atomic masses of the elements

Al = 27 g

O = 16

S = 32

2.- Represent the percentages as grams

Al = 31.5 g

O = 56.1 g

S = 12.4 g

3.- Convert these masses to moles

                               27 g of Al ----------------- 1 mol

                               31.5 g ----------------------  x

                                x = 1.17 moles

                               16 g of O ----------------  1 mol

                               56.1 g of O -------------  x

                                  x = 3.5 mol

                               32 g of S ---------------  1 mol

                               12.4 g of S -------------   x

                                x = 0.39 moles

4.- Divide by the lowest number of moles

Al =   1.17 / 0.39  = 3

O =    3.5 / 0.39 = 8.9 ≈ 9

S  =   0.39 / 0.39 = 1

5.- Write the empirical equation

                                Al₃O₉S

What would happen if our intestines were not coiled (twisted) inside our body?
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

If there is a change in the natural shape of the intestines, this can be known as a twisted bowel. A twist in the small intestine is referred to as a volvulus. Twists in the large intestine are known as a colonic volvulus. These abnormal twists or loops can cause an obstruction or other medical conditions which could be fatal. If signs of twisting bowel present, it is important to seek medical attention as quickly as possible.
