Answer:

allopolyploidy

Explanation:

Polyploidy is the condition by which a cell might have more than two chromosome sets that form homologous pairs. It might occur due to a failure or abnormality in cell division.  

Autopolyploidy

Refer to a type of polyploidy in which an organism has more than two copies of homologous chromosomes. It results from the duplication of a group of chromosomes of the same species. Autopolyploid individuals have <u>at least three groups of homologous chromosomes</u>. Autopolyploidy is produced by the<u> gamete fusion of the same progenitor - same species</u>-, duplicating the number of chromosomes of diploid species. The autopolyploid cell has groups of homologous chromosomes. Autopolyploidy is produced mainly due to non-disjunction during meiosis.

Allopolyploidy

Refer to another type of polyploidy in which species have more than three sets of chromosomes in their cells. Allopolyploidy <u>occurs when two different species mate</u>, leading to the fusion of gametes that belong to different species and produce a new hybrid. The chromosomic complement has more than two copies of chromosomes. The hybrid is infertile with the parental species. The allopolyploid cells have chromosome groups that are not homologous.  

In the exposed example two different species mate and produce a hybrid species.

Answer:

Two heterozygous parents have a <u>50%</u> chance of contributing one of their alleles to each offspring.

Explanation:

Individuals who are heterozygous for a specific trait have two different alleles in the gene that determines that trait. This characteristic makes their chances of contributing each of their alleles to the offspring 50%.

The alleles of a gene are distributed in the gametes by the process of meiosis, which results in daughter cells with half the genetic charge, so each gamete can only have one copy of the allelic pair of a gene.  

On the other hand, if an individual has two equal alleles for a characteristic in a gene, he has a 100% chance of passing that allele on to his descendants.

Ganglion cells and Lateral geniculate nucleus.

- Ganglion cells: Also called ganglion neurons, are essential nerve cell for vision; they receive information from photoreceptors using bipolar, amacrine and horizontal intermediary neurons.
- Lateral geniculate nucleus: It is the primary processing center of the visual information received by the eye, in addition it is in charge of the regulation of the flow and intensity of the visual signals that are transmitted to the visual cortex.
