Answer:
Shows the flow of food and energy
Answer choices:
- A frame shift mutation in the X chromosome of a cheek cell
- A chromosomal mutation in the Y chromosome of a kidney cell
- A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
- A substitution mutation in the third chromosome of a uterus cell
Answers:
A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
Explanation:
Only mutations that affect the germ line are passed on to the next generation. Therefore, only mutations in the egg and sperm of an individual have the potential to affect the next generation.
Mutations in cheek cells, kidney cells, and uterus cells might cause cell death or cancer. This genetic material is not passed on to the next generation, only the egg and sperm contribute this material. Therefore, only mutations here will affect the generation.
Answer:
The location in which it stores its genetic material.
Explanation:
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.
Mitosis results in two cells that are duplicates of the original cell. This kind of cell division occurs throughout the body, except in the reproductive organs. This is how most of the cells that make up the body are made and replaced.<span>Meiosis results in cells with half the number of chromosomes, 23 instead of the normal 46. These are the eggs and sperm. </span>
