c would be your answer i just took the test
Answer:B.) Global warming causes air to be moister, resulting in more frequent blizzards.
Explanation:
Answer:
Replicated chromosomes at metaphase I = 66
Sister chromatids at metaphase I = 66 x 2 = 132
Sister chromatids at prophase II = 66
Chromosomes in each sperm cells = 33
Explanation:
Metaphase I of meiosis I would have 66 replicated chromosomes in the testicular cells of the bird. Each of the replicated chromosomes would have two sister chromatids. So, a total of 66 replicated chromosomes would have 66 x 2 = 132 sister chromatids.
Due to segregation of homologous chromosomes towards opposite poles in anaphase I, each daughter cell formed by the end of meiosis I would have 33 replicated chromosomes. So, each of the daughter cells would have a total 33 x 2 = 66 sister chromatids at prophase II.
Since meiosis II maintains the chromosome number, each sperm cell formed by the end of meiosis II would have 33 chromosomes.
In fetal life, the lungs are not expanded, so most of the blood from the right ventricle is shunted from the pulmonary artery to the aorta through the patent ductus arteriosus. With a few breaths the lungs expand, and blood flows from right ventricle to pulmonary artery into the lungs. Withdrawal of circulating prostaglandin from the mother plus bradykinins released from the expanding lung of the infant cause the ductus to close over a few minutes to hours. The closed ductus remains as the ligamentum arteriosum.
