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

Physics
1 answer:
Bogdan [553]3 years ago
3 0

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.

Guitar string has an overall length of 1.22 m and a total mass of 3.5 g before being strung on a guitar. Once it is used on the
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Fundamental frequency= 174.5 hz

Explanation:

We know

fundamental frequency=\frac{velocity}{2 *length}

velocity =\sqrt{\frac{tension}{mass per unit length} }

mass per unit length=\frac{3.5}{1000*1.22}=0.00427\frac{kg}{m}

Now calculating velocity v=\sqrt{\frac{255}{0.00427} }

                                           =244.3\frac{m}{sec}

Distance between two nodes is 0.7 m.

Plugging these values into to calculate frequency

f = \frac{244.3}{2 *0.7} =174.5 hz

How does the gravitational force between two objects change if the distance
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The Gravitational Force is reduced 4 times

Explanation:

The equation of Gravitational force follows:

F = (G*m1*m2)/r^2

Assume that G*m1*m2 = 1 and r = 1:

F = 1/1^2 = 1 N

Multiply the radius by 2

F = 1/2^2 = 1/4 N

So doubling the distance reduces the force 4 times.

Three heavy rods are all made of the same uniform material. These rods have lengths 3 m, 4 m, and 5 m, and compose the sides of
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

[ 2.67 , 1 ] m

Explanation:

Given:-

- The side lengths of the rods are as follows:

                             a = 4 m , b = 4 m , c = 5 m

                             a = Base , b = Perpendicular , c = Hypotenuse

- All rods are made of same material with uniform density. With

Find the coordinates of the center of mass of the triangle.

Solution:-

- The center of mass of any triangle is at the intersection of its medians.

- So let’s say we have a triangle with vertices at points (0,0) , (a,0) , and (0,b).

  • Median from (0,0) to midpoint (a/2,b/2) of opposite side has equation:

                                       bx−ay=0

  • Median from (a,0) to midpoint (0,b/2) of opposite side has equation:

                                      bx+2ay=ab

  • Median from (0,b) to midpoint (a/2,0) of opposite side has equation:

                                     2bx+ay=ab

  • Solve all three equations simultaneously:

                                     bx−ay=0  , bx = ay

                                     ay + 2ay = ab , 3ay = ab , y = b/3

                                     bx = b/3

                                     x = a / 3

  • So the distance from the median to each leg of the triangle is 1/3 length of other leg.

- So the coordinates of the centroid for right angle triangle would be:

                                   [ 2a/3 , b/3 ]

                                   [ 2.67 , 1 ] m

As light from a star spreads out and weakens, do gaps form between the photons?<br>​
Zolol [24]

Answer:

There are no gaps in space between the photons as they travel. If you were to look at a wave then you'd come  to a conclusion that indeed that there aren't any gaps unless they are specifically placed.The light from a distance star indeed spreads out and weakens as it travels, but this just reduces the wave strength and does not introduce gaps.
