Answer:
10 chromosomes/sister chromatids
Explanation:
Prophase is the first stage of cell division (mitosis). Prior to the cell entering the actual division stage, it undergoes a phase where it prepares its content and most importantly undergo the duplication of its genetic material (DNA). This DNA are found as chromosomes. It undergoes replication of its DNA in the S-phase of interphase stage.
Since Arabidopsis thaliana has 10 chromosomes, and each chromosome holds one DNA molecule, 10 molecules of DNA will be present in the mustard plant's genome. These 10 molecules of DNA will be replicated on another copy of chromosome which is identical to the template. This chromosomes are called SISTER chromatids i.e. replicated chromosome. Each sister chromatids are held together at the centromere and are considered one individual chromosome until they separate during anaphase stage.
Hence, at the Prophase stage, before separation, each sister chromatid (replicated chromosome) is considered as one chromosome. Thus, in the mustard plant with 10 chromosomes, it will possess 10 sister chromatids or chromosomes at the Prophase stage.
N.B: When sister chromatids separate during anaphase stage, they will be regarded as individual chromosomes.
Answer:
<em>Exceptions to Mendel's principles:
</em>
Does exceptions mean that Mendel was "wrong"? The answer is "NO". It means that we know more today about diseases, genes, and heredity than compared to what he expalined 150 years ago. Here I have summerized the exceptions with examples:
<em>Incomplete dominance</em>: When an organism is heterozygous for a trait and both genes are expressed but not completely.
<em>Example</em><em>:</em> SnapDragon Flowers
<em>Codominance</em>: When 2 different alleles are present and both alleles are expressed.
<em>Example</em>: Black Feathers + Whites feathers --> Black and white speckled feathers
<em>Multiple alleles</em>: Three or more alternative forms of a gene (alleles) that can occupy the same locus.
Example: Bloodtype
<em>Polygenic traits</em>: more than one gene controls a particular phenotype
Example: human height, Hair color, weight, and eye, hair and skin color.
Answer:
There are 64 fish, 8 ducks and 4 turtles.
Explanation:
From the question, there can be from 2 to 99 fish in the pond. However, there cannot be fractions in the number of fish, ducks or turtles. Hence, the number of fish must have both of a perfect square and perfect cube. The perfect squares from 2 to 99 are 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64 and 81. The perfect cubes from 2 to 99 are 8, 27 and 64. Since only 64 fits both criteria, the number of fish is 64. The number of ducks is the square root of number of fish, which is the square root of 64. The square root of 64 can be either positive 8 or negative 8. However, there cannot be negative numbers, so there are 8 ducks in total. The number of turtles is the cube root of the number of fish, which is the cube root of 64 and it is 4.
<span>This organelle is the nucleolus.
The nucleolus is made of proteins, DNA, and RNA. They form around specific regions of the chromosomes called nucleolar organizing regions. These regions of the chromosomes contain some the genes needed for ribosome production.</span>
I believe the answer to this would be A. True
