I believe he is looking for an allele
An allele is a variant form of a gene. Some genes have a variety of different forms, which are located at the same position, or genetic locus, on a chromosomes. Humans are called diploid organisms because they have two alleles at each genetic locus, with one allele inherited from each parent.
ATP is required for muscle contraction. Four sources of this substance are available to muscle fibers: free ATP, phosphocreatine, glycolysis and cellular respiration. A small amount of free ATP is available in the muscle for immediate use.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
The correct answer is both.
Explanation:
- Each chromosome is made up of a pair of sister chromatids which remain attached to each other at the centromere.
- During DNA replication the DNA duplicates, which means that if initially in the parent cell 'n' chromosomes were present then, after duplication, the number of chromosomes in the cell will be '2n'.
- As mentioned above, each chromosome has a pair of sister chromatids, that is, two chromatids per chromosome. So, 'n' chromosomes will have '2n' chromatids. Hence, '2n' chromosomes will have '4n' chromatids.
- In a parent cell,
- Before duplication, number of chromosome = n, number of chromatid = 2n.
- After duplication, number of chromosome = 2n, number of chromatid = 4n.
- The cell cycle proceeds as, G0, G1, S, G2, M.
- G0 represents the interphase. It occurs before replication or duplication of the chromosomes, which occurs in the S phase.
- So, in G0 phase, the chromosome number is 'n' and chromatid number is '2n'.
