Which is not a characteristic of homologous chromosomes? A. Same length B. Same centromere position C. Exact same type of allele

s D. Same genes
Biology
1 answer:
noname [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Homologous chromosomes do not necessarily have to have exactly the same type of alleles.

<em>Homologous chromosomes consist of a pair of chromatids with the same length, centromere position, and more or less the same gene. However, the gene can have the same or different alleles, meaning that the genes can be expressed differently in individuals. Dominant alleles are usually expressed while recessive alleles remain in the background. </em>

The correct option is, therefore, C.

Which statements describe the effects of the solar wind on Earth? Check all that apply. The solar wind produces the northern and
Andrei [34K]

The correct answers are:

• The solar wind produces the northern and southern lights

• The solar wind disrupts communication systems.  

• The solar wind distorts Earth's magnetic field.

Solar winds are geomagnetic stream of charged particles radiated from the outer atmosphere of the sun. All planets are protected from solar winds via magnetic fields but planets that are positioned closer to the sun can experience degeneration of the magnetic field.

Solar winds are capable to distort and even destroy the functioning of communication satellites  in outer space, such as radio and tv communication and satellite based internet services.

The effects of solar winds that are visible to naked eye are the Aurora Borealis (the Northern lights) and the Aurora Australis (the Southern Lights).

Describe one way osmosis and osmotic pressure is important to medicine.
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Since the beginning of life of the first multicellular organisms, the preservation of a physiologic milieu for every cell in the organism has been a critical requirement. A particular range of osmolality of the body fluids is essential for the maintenance of cell volume. In humans the stability of electrolyte concentrations and their resulting osmolality in the body fluids is the consequence of complex interactions between cell membrane functions, hormonal control, thirst, and controlled kidney excretion of fluid and solutes. Knowledge of these mechanisms, of the biochemical principles of osmolality, and of the relevant situations occurring in disease is of importance to every physician. This comprehensive review summarizes the major facts on osmolality, its relation to electrolytes and other solutes, and its relevance in physiology and in disease states with a focus on dialysis-related considerations.

Describe the movement in the amoeba
Oliga [24]
Amoebae move by growing an extension of their bodies in the direction of movement and then flowing into it. This extension is called a pseudopod because when it's fully extended it resembles a limb, despite being only an extension of the amoeba's plasma membrane.
