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.

During respiration, a seed metabolizes sugars. what is the source of the sugar metabolized by the seed?
pashok25 [27]

The source of the sugar metabolized by the seed is photosynthesis.  

The procedure used by plants to transform light energy into a chemical form of energy is known as photosynthesis. The chemical energy can afterward be discharged to fuel the plants to perform their activities.  

During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water can be combined in the existence of chlorophyll and sunlight to generate oxygen and glucose (carbohydrates). However, the prime component generated in the procedure is glucose (sugar) that is the molecule, which generates energy to mediate the activities of the cell.
