professor190 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation: In facilitated diffusion, molecules diffuse across the plasma membrane with assistance from membrane proteins, such as channels and carriers. A concentration gradient exists for these molecules, so they have the potential to diffuse into or out of, the cell by moving down it.

A scientist crossed a tall pea plant with a short pea plant. Of the offspring, 13 were tall and 12 were short, write the ratio o
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Tall offsprings: 13/25

Short offsprings: 12/25

Explanation:

According to this question, a cross between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant gives rise to the following:

13 tall pea offsprings

12 short pea offsprings

This means that a total of (13 + 12) = 25 offsprings were produced by this cross. To get the ratio of each phenotype to the total number of offspring, we say the number of each phenotype (tall or short) / total offspring the produced.

That is;

Tall offsprings: 13/25

Short offsprings: 12/25

In percentage, this can be represented as:

Tall offsprings: 13/25 × 100 = 52%

Short offsprings: 12/25 × 100 = 48%

If a cell has 40 chromosomes, how many centromeres would it have when it is in metaphase? a. 1 b. 2 c. 20 d. 40 e. 80
Alla [95]

Answer:

Basically this depends on the type of cell division the cell undergoes.

if the cell undergoes reduction division of meiosis(n) the  chromosome number will be reduced to 20 so the centromere will be 20, However if the cell undergoes multiplication division of mitosis,(2n) the centromere will be 40, since the chromosomes number will increases and sister chromatids holding the chromosomes are held at centro mere.
