Answer: Tsunami

A tsunami is a large wave that is caused by underwater earthquakes, or tectonic plates shifting on the bottom of the ocean, or a sudden underwater volcano eruption. Tsunamis travel at extremely high speeds and can destroy shores and even cities.

If a cell has a diploid number of 8 (2n = 8) before meiosis, how many chromosomes will be in each of the four daughter cells aft
Naddik [55]

Answer:

The final product is four gametes, two of them with 5 chromosomes, and the other two with 3 chromosomes each.

Explanation:

If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis 1, a pair of homologous chromosomes fail to separate, and one of the daughter cells will have the two chromosomes while the other cell will not get any chromosome from the pair.

If meiosis 1 occurs normally, but nondisjunction occurs in meiosis 2, sister chromatids fail to separate.  

The usual process of meiosis produces four daughter haploid cells (n) from a diploid germ cell (2n). Each daughter cell is haploid because they have half the number of chromosomes of the original one.  

If the diploid number of the original cell is 8 (2n=8), then under normal conditions, each haploid daughter cell should have 4 chromosomes (n = 4).  

But in the exposed example, one pair of homologous chromosomes experiences nondisjunction during meiosis I (in the attached file, you will recognize this pair as the red one). The other chromosomes separate as usual. So one of the daughter cells will have one extra chromosome than expected (five instead of four), and the other daughter cell will lack one chromosome (three instead of four). Meiosis II occurs normally. The final result is the formation of four gametes, two of them with 5 chromosomes, and the other two with 3 chromosomes each.

If an object turns but maintains the same speed,has its acceleration changed?explain
Andreas93 [3]
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity
Since velocity is a vector, it has both speed and direction.
So, if the object is travelling in a straight line at a constant speed, then it will not be accelerating. Both Magnitude and direction are constant.
However, if the object is travelling in a circle at a constant speed, then it'll be accelerating. An Object going in a circle is constantly changing it's direction, which means velocity is changing, so there is an acceleration caused by a net force.
Hope this Helps :)
