You divide the number of chromosomes in half, just like humans. So the female zygote has 28 chromosomes and the male sperm have 28 chromosomes. This way each set of chromosomes contributes the same amount to each sex cell.

The right answer is The zygote has 56 chromosomes, 28 inherited from the mother and 28 from the father.

In diploid organisms such as mammals, each individual has two copies of each gene, one from the mother and the other from the father (exception: sex chromosome genes). If these two versions are identical, the individual is said to be homozygous for the gene considered. In the opposite case, it has two different versions (two different alleles), and it is heterozygous for this gene.

Answer:

1. Liver

2. Liver and Kidneys

3. Mitochondria

4. Lumen of the small intestines

5. Liver

Explanation:

1. Glucose is phosphorylated into glucose-6-phosphate which is the first step of both glycogen synthesis and glycolysis, this process occurs in the liver

2.   Glucose 6-phosphate is a product of a process named gluconeogenesis which occurs in the liver it serves as a substrate for glucose-6-phosphatase in the liver.

3. Creatinine kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the phosphorylation of creatine. In regeneration process of ATP, creatine phosphate transfers a high-energy phosphate to ADP which produces ATP and creatine

4. Initially lipase digestion lipase digestion happens in the small intestine where the bile salts reduce the surface tension of the fat droplets allowing the lipases to attack the triglyceride molecules. These molecules are taken up into the epithelial cells that line the intestinal wall, where they are resynthesized into triglyceride

5. The job of the liver is to produce ketone bodies. If the liver had this enzyme, the ketone bodies it produces would be immediately broken down by the liver before they are released, thereofore, no release of ketone bodies into the bloodstream
