Which statement explains the difference in chromosomes in fruit fly (2n=4)?

Biology

Aloiza [94]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

O Fruit fly gametes have 2 chromosomes while parent cells have 4 chromosomes.

Explanation:

The fruit fly is a diploid (2n) species with a chromosome number equal to 4, which means that somatic cells have two sets of homologous chromosomes, each set composed of two chromosomes (2n = 4). Moreover, fly gametes are haploid (n) cells, containing each a complete set of two non-homologous chromosomes (i.e., half the amount of DNA compared to parent cells). During meiosis, a single cell divides twice following one complete round of DNA replication, producing thus four gametes with a haploid number of chromosomes.

Both animal and plant cells have mitochondria, but only plant cells have chloroplasts. Plants don't get their sugar from eating food, so they need to make sugar from sunlight. Because animals get sugar from the food they eat, they do not need chloroplasts: just mitochondria.

OleMash [197]

After four divisions, the zygote becomes a morula- the stadium that consists of 16 blastomeres. By the fifth day of development the form of the blastocyst is formed through the processes of compaction, cell division, and blastulation. Later, specialized cells in the embryo are derived from the inner cell mass (ICM) of the blastocyst.
