Answer:

Daughter cells with abnormal number of chromosomes will be produced (aneuploidy)

Explanation:

Ideally, homologous pair of chromosomes are meant to separate into opposite poles during the anaphase I stage of meiosis. However, a failure to separate, a process called MEIOTIC NON-DISJUNCTION, will cause some daughter cells to have more than the required/normal chromosome number while some daughter cells will have less than the normal or no chromosome.

This abnormality in chromosome number caused by failure of chromosome to separate is called ANEUPLOIDY. In a nutshell, when this occurs, the daughter cells will possess abnormalities in chromosome number i.e trisomy, monosomy etc.

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the complete part is asking to identify the variables of the experimental statement i.e. dependent and the independent variables.

Independent variable: different amounts of time light is on

Dependent variable: Number of eggs laid by chicken

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment, variables, which are factors that can be altered, are used. These variables are independent and dependent variables.

An independent variable is that variable that is subject to manipulation or control by the experimenter in order to bring about a change in the dependent variable. For this experiment, the independent variable is the DIFFERENT AMOUNT OF TIME LIGHT IS ON.

On the other hand, a variable is said to be dependent if it is the measurable or responding variable. The response of the dependent variable is dependent on the independent variable. In this experiment, the dependent variable is the NUMBER OF EGGS LAID BY CHICKENS. The number of eggs laid (dependent variable) is dependent on the amount of time light is on (independent variable).

How do i know if i am transgender or not? i feel like i am but do not want to be made fun of
vlabodo [156]
I'm not positive this would be the best place to ask that, I would suggest consulting either a close family member or friend or maybe a therapist. Or if you know someone who is transgender, talk to them, they most likely have the most insight. <span />
