Why do sex cells contain only half the number of chromosomes needed for offspring? Explain

Physics

Bogdan [553]3 years ago

Answer:

None, egg cells don't have chromosomes. No, sex cells do have chromosomes. Meiosis reduces chromosome number so that sex cells (eggs and sperm) have a half set of chromosomes–one homolog of each pair. This is the haploid number.

Arada [10]
If you are under a tree, they kind of act like lightning rods, so stay away from trees, so roll in dat grass. Fun Fact: Lightning comes from the ground more than it comes from the sky, its like when you rub a blanket on your head, some lil' lightnings come from your head while a little come from the blanket, its the same with grass and clouds only, 10000 volts stronger and deadly.

What is the speed of terminal velocity?
ivann1987 [24]
The so-called "terminal velocity" is the fastest that something can fall
through a fluid.  Even though there's a constant force pulling it through,
the friction or resistance of plowing through the surrounding substance
gets bigger as the speed grows, so there's some speed where the resistance
is equal to the pulling force, and then the falling object can't go any faster.

A few examples:
-- the terminal velocity of a sky-diver falling through air,
-- the terminal velocity of a pecan falling through honey,
-- the terminal velocity of a stone falling through water.

It's not possible to say that "the terminal velocity is ----- miles per hour".
If any of these things changes, then the terminal velocity changes too:

-- weight of the falling object
-- shape of the object
-- surface texture (smoothness) of the object
-- density of the surrounding fluid
-- viscosity of the surrounding fluid .

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

92.81 psia.

Explanation:

The density of water by multiplying its specific gravity by the density of sea water.

SG = density of sea water/density of water

ρ = SG x ρw

1 kg/m3 = 62.4 lbm/ft^3

= 1.03 * 62.4

= 64.27lbm/ft^3.

The absolute pressure at 175 ft below sea level as this is the location of the submarine.

P = Patm +ρgh

= 14.7 + 64.27 * 32.2 * 175

Converting to pound force square inch,

= 14.7 + 64.27 * (32.2ft/s^2) * (175ft) * (1lbf/32.2lbm⋅ft/s^2) * (1ft^2/144in^2 )

= 14.7 + 78.11 psia

= 92.81 psia.
