Answer:

47 chromosomes

Explanation:

Meiosis is a kind of division that reduces the chromosome number of the daughter cells by half i.e. 2n - n. It occurs only in reproductive cells to produce sex cells or gametes. In humans, meiosis occurs to produce gametes (egg and sperm) that have 23 haploid chromosomes.

N.B: Somatic human cells have 46 chromosomes

According to this question, a meiotic error occurred during gamete formation, resulting in an egg that has 24 chromosomes. If that egg is fertilized by a normal sperm i.e. sperm with 23 chromosomes. A zygote that posseses (23 + 24) = 47 chromosomes will be produced.

Answer:

head of the humerus, Acromial end of the clavicle

Explanation:

The shoulder is made up of three bones: the scapula, the clavicle and the humerus (upper arm bone).  Two joints in the shoulder allow it to move: the  acromioclavicular joint, where the highest point of the scapula (acromion) meets the clavicle at its acromial end (the sternal end of the clavicle is bounded to the sternon), and the glenohumeral joint. The scapula also bounds to the head of the humerus, it is, the distal superior end.

What can be done in the future for the greenhouse effect?
andrezito [222]

Second thoughts:

I don't think doing anything in the future will be of use, because we should have already done it, and we didn't, so we have to do it now.

And what we should do is:

To find and actually use and apply new energy sources.

To do more (or less, depending on what the problem is).

To clean the mess we have done / recover the gap in the ozone layer /fix the damage that we have caused.

If you're interested:

I don't think protesting (like we're currently doing) will be of help for two simple reasons:

1. - I don't know for sure, but I don't think politicians care, like or pay attention to protests (unless it's something like the Yellow Jackets).

2. - The time we spend protesting is more valuable than we think. We should leave that aside.

Hope it helped,

Answer:

Pancreas secrets two hormones called insulin and glucagon which helps in maintaining the glucose level in the blood.

Explanation:

Pancreas secrets a hormone called as insulin, which helps the cell in absorbing the glucose by reducing the blood sugar and providing glucose for energy. On falling of the sugar level pancreas releases a hormone called glucagon. This glucagon informs the pancreas about the presence of low sugar in blood, after which it releases the stored glucose, and helps in raising the blood sugar level. Alpha cell of pancreas produces glucagon.
