<u>Answer</u>: Sperm cell
<u>Explanation</u>:
Amongst all the 4 options given, only the Sperm cell is a gamete (sex cell) while all the three are somatic cells.
- A <em>somatic</em> cell is the one which forms the body of an organism and contains all the genetic information.
- A <em>gamete</em> is the one which is required for the purpose of fertilization. A gamete of male fuses with the gamete of female in a process called fertilization to form a zygote to give rise to a new individual.
- A Sperm cell is basically a <em>male gamete.</em> It contains only half the amount of genetic information as the other half is contributed by the female gamete.
- This difference in the amount of genetic information arises due to the type of cell division that occurs. The somatic cells undergo mitosis whereas a gamete requires meiosis to occur for its formation.
- During mitosis there is a single round of cell division which divides the parent cell into two daughter cells each with the <em>complete genetic information</em>.
- During meiosis the cell undergoes two rounds of cell division such that a total lf 4 cells are produced each <em>with half the amount of genetic material </em>as present in the parent cell.
Since, <em>sperm is a male gamete and is formed by meiosis it contains only half the genetic information as compared to the other cells.</em>
Yes it is home to jellyfish
Because the species of finches on the Galápagos island have various appearances but still mate with other finches and produce fertile offspring making it is difficult for scientists to distinguish between two groups of individuals as separate species.
<h3>What is the island of Galápagos?</h3>
The Pacific Ocean island of Galápagos is located to the west of Ecuador. It is a volcanic island known for its diverse and endemic types of living things.
<h3>Why is it difficult to find new species in Finches?</h3>
Charles Darwin spent several years studying the many species of finches on the Galápagos island. He saw a great deal of variation in these finches, which supports the hypothesis of natural selection.
However. it is challenging for scientists to discern between two separate species because the species of finches on the Galápagos island have a variety of features that are different but still mate with other finches and produce fertile offspring.
