How can independent assortment help explain genetic diversity in humans? How many pairs of chromosomes are in a human diploid ce

dybincka [34]3 years ago

Independent assortment states that all alleles are inherited independently of other alleles. This helps diversity because it helps to further the randomization of traits. If traits were always inherited together, as a "package deal", there would naturally be less diversity than the situation that exists. For example, one may never see a person with blue eyes and brown hair if the alleles for the two traits, hair and eye color, were inherited together. However, it is worth noting that there is "genetic linkage", meaning full or partial violation of independent assortment among certain trait groups. 

There are 46 chromosome in a normal human diploid cell, 23 inherited from the mother's egg and 23 inherited from the father's sperm.

Explain why the force of muscle twitch can vary?
padilas [110]

Answer

Frequency of stimulus can change the force of muscle twitch.

Explanation

Twitch is tension produced by the contraction of a small muscle or it is muscle fasciculation. Its strength depends on the stimulation frequency. If the frequency is higher then temporal summation takes place and produce higher tension in the muscle. If the frequency is weak then less tension is produced in the muscle. This force also depends on the cross-sectional area of muscle.
