Answer: 16 different gametes

  1. ABCD
  2. ABCd
  3. ABcD
  4. ABcd
  5. AbCD
  6. AbCd
  7. AbcD
  8. Abcd
  9. aBCD
  10. aBCd
  11. aBcD
  12. aBcd
  13. abCD
  14. abCd
  15. abcD
  16. abcd

Explanation:

Gamete formation involves the random and independent segregation of alleles. During anaphase 1 (meiosis), occurs the independent separation of homologous chromosomes that migrate to opposite poles of the cell. This separation generates different chromosomal combinations in the daughter cells. There are two alternatives per homologous pair.  

The number of gametes with different combinations is 2ⁿ, where  

n = number of homologous pairs.  

In the exposed example there are 4 pairs of chromosomes, so

the number of possible combinations of chromosomes = 2ⁿ = 2⁴ = 16

Individual: AaBbCcDdEe

You can make use of the fork line method to easily figure out the possible gametes.

A.......B.........C........D → ABCD

                     ........d → ABCd

          ...........c.........D → ABcD

                       ........d → ABcd

           b.........C........D → AbCD

                     ........d → AbCd

          ...........c.........D → AbcD

                       ........d → Abcd

a.......B.........C........D → aBCD

                     ........d → aBCd

          ...........c.........D → aBcD

                       ........d → aBcd

           b.........C........D → abCD

                     ........d → abCd

          ...........c.........D → abcD

                       ........d → abcd

Which biotic and abiotic factors are different between a lion and a deer?
nevsk [136]
They are both biotic factors because they affect living organisms. The abiotic factor a lion and deer needs is water because they need to stay hydrated but water is not living . Deers eat plants, plants are known as biotic factors too. And lions eat their prey which are living animals and once they are preyed upon they are still considered biotic because they were once living before getting consumed by the lion.
