Dog gametes contain 33 chromosomes. What is the genetic content of a dog body cell?

Biology
1 answer:
aleksandrvk [35]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

If a dog's gametes have 33 chromosomes, the somatic or body cells have a genetic content of 66 chromosomes.

Explanation:

Gametes are the sex cells of sexually-reproducing organisms, with the characteristic of being haploid, that is, their<u> genetic content is reduced by half</u>. Unlike gametes, somatic or <u>body cells</u><u> contain the complete charge of chromosomes</u>, so they are called diploids.

If the genetic content of a dog's gamete is 33 chromosomes, its body cells must have twice as many, which means 66 chromosomes.

<em>     </em><em><u>An additional note</u></em><em>: a dog really has 78 chromosomes, so its gametes have 39 chromosomes. </em>

Disruptive selection events select for _______.
Natalija [7]

The right option is; extreme traits

Disruptive selection events select for extreme traits.

Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection in which organisms with extreme traits are favored (such as in reproduction) over organisms with intermediate traits. This type of selection results in increased traits differences with increase in frequency of the alleles for the extreme traits. Disruptive selection can lead to the digression in a species line.

Do we classify viruses as living? give support for both yes and no arguments.

Viruses are classified as non-living. Although they have DNA or RNA as genetic information, a protein coat, and some, a lipidic envelope, they do not have the machinery to multiply on their own and therefore are non-living. <span>A </span>virus<span> is simply an </span>infectious agent<span> that, through different ways, many times only by releasing its genetic information inside the cell, </span>replicates<span> using other living-cells machinery</span><span>.
