You may have heard through various media of an animal alleged to be the hybrid of a rabbit and a cat. Given that the cat (Felis

domesticus) has a diploid chromosome number of 38 and a rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) has a diploid chromosome number of 44, what would be the expected chromosome number in the somatic tissues of this alleged hybrid

Answer:

The correct answer is - 2n = 41 chromosomes.

Explanation:

It is given that the cat has a diploid chromosome number of 38 while the rabbit has a diploid number of 44 chromosomes and if they form a hybrid then their expected chromosome number in somatic cells would be -

Cat (2n=38) produces haploid gametes with 19 chromosomes (n-19).

Rabbit (2n=44) produces haploid gametes with 22 chromosomes(n=22)

19+22= 41 chromosomes in the particular hybrid as half number of chromosomes come from each parent.

What is the correct sequence of events along an axon that follows a membrane reaching threshold potential?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

As sodium ions diffuse inward, sodium channels open.

Membrane depolarization occurs.

Potassium ions spread outward as potassium channels open.

Membrane repolarization occurs.

<h3>What happens along an axon in the right order ?</h3><h3 />

An action potential, which is a fast change in membrane potential, develops when the membrane potential of a neuron's axon hillock hits threshold. There are three steps to this shifting change in membrane potential. Depolarization occurs first, then repolarization, and then there is a brief phase of hyperpolarization.

  • A depolarizing current causes an explosion of electrical activity known as the action potential. This indicates that the resting potential shifts toward 0 mV as a result of some action (a stimulus).

Identify the function of two endocrine glands.
brilliants [131]

Pituitary gland: Responsible for growth and reproduction, it secretes and stores hormones and influences how other glands act.

Adrenal gland: It’s responsible for producing certain steroid hormones, including aldosterone and cortisol.

It's a vague description of the two.

Monosaccharides are the most basic form of carbohydrates. Monosaccharides can be linked together to form long, compact chains ca
Kruka [31]

Polysaccharide formation allows organism to store energy efficiently. The storage form of food in animals is glycogen and in plants it is starch. Both glycogen and starch are polysaccharides of glucose. Many glucose units are linked together by condensation reaction to form polysaccharide. Compared to having several molecules of glucose in a bulk it is better to store it in the form of condensed bulk i.e polysaccharide. Thus polysaccharides which are formed by condensation reaction i.e by the loss of water molecules are easy to store.

Polysacchrides are: a) stored in the form of condensed bulk

b) they are chemically non-reactive

c) they are osmolytically inactive
