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

Explain why the size of a new moon would affect the appearance of a solar eclipse.
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

A solar eclipse can occur only when new moon occurs close to one of the points (known as nodes) where the Moon's orbit crosses the ecliptic. ... Therefore, the Moon's apparent size varies with its distance from the Earth, and it is this effect that leads to the difference between total and annular eclipses.

igomit [66]

Answer:

Obtain specimen before antibiotics are given.

Explanation:

Antibiotics may be defined as the chemicals given to kill or restrict the growth of the bacterial infection. The antibiotics are not available for virus as they can change their DNA.

The sensitivity results can be accurate if the nurse is able to ensure the successful culture of the antibiotics. Throat culture specimen is taken from the pharyngeal area. The aseptic technique can be used by the nurse for obtaining the blood and urine specimen.

Thus, the answer is obtain specimen before antibiotics are given.

Please help can anyone write a summary about Antibiotics
rjkz [21]
Antibiotics are powerful medicines that fight bacterial infections. Used properly, antibiotics can save lives. They either kill bacteria or keep them from reproducing. Your body's natural defenses usually take it from there. Antibiotics do not kill viruses.
