Answer:

The correct answer is - a. If these two mite chromosomes have different genes at different loci.

Explanation:

If it is 2n= 2, it means that it is diploid and has two sets of chromosomes in which one set comes from mother and the other from father which means parent's genes contribute to diploid equally. Both sets of chromosomes form homologous chromosome pair. Each homolog of the pair has the same gene at the same loci in diploid and if it has not the same homologous gene at the same loci these are haploid.

The body can be invaded by pathogens , which are harmful microorganisms that cause infection diseases. The body then initiates a
pochemuha

Answer:The term "disease" refers to conditions that impair normal tissue function. For example, cystic fibrosis, atherosclerosis, and measles are all considered diseases. However, there are fundamentally different causes for each of these diseases. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is due to a specific genotype that results in impaired transport of chloride ions across cell membranes, leading to the production of abnormally thick mucus. Thus, CF is most accurately called a genetic or metabolic disease. Atherosclerosis, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes, may be considered a disease of aging, because it typically becomes a problem later in life after plaques of cholesterol have built up and partially blocked arteries. In contrast, measles is an infectious disease because it occurs when an individual contracts an outside agent, the measles virus. An infectious disease is a disease that is caused by the invasion of a host by agents whose activities harm the host's tissues (that is, they cause disease) and can be transmitted to other individuals (that is, they are infectious).
