Answer:

Unlike the queen bee, which has 32 chromosomes, drones have half the chromosomal charge (n= 16), so they are considered haploid.

Explanation:

The system of determination of the sex in the bees —like in other insects— is called haplodiploidy, and consists of which the females of the species possess complete charge of chromosomes, whereas the males only possess half. This is what happens with the queen bee with 32 chromosomes, while drones only have 16 chromosomes, so they are considered haploid.

Additionally, as a characteristic of haplodiploidy, males only proceed from female gametes, so they can only contribute gametes to produce females of the species.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <em>Drones, with half of the chromosomal charge, </em><u><em>cannot be diploid</em></u><em>. </em>
  • <u><em>Monosomy and trisomy</em></u><em> are defects in the distribution of chromosomes during meiosis, which imply one chromosome less or one chromosome more in the normal chromosome charge respectively.</em>

First thing to remember is that interphase is a stage associated with replication of DNA, and growth.


Once meiosis starts, the purpose is to produce a haploid gamete. So there is no further need of replication or growth.

Foreign invaders have proteins called _____, which antibodies lock onto to neutralize.
stich3 [128]
Foreign invaders have proteins called antigen, which antibodies lock onto to neutralize. The foreign proteins are different from proteins in our own body, so the immune system can recognize them and finally eliminate them.

Answer:

<h2>Its true!!</h2>

Explanation:

Actually the haemoglobin molecule consists of 2 parts, the haem which is a prosthetic group and the other globin which is a protein. So the haemoglobin as is a protein so, is arranged in quaternary structure of protein which contains 4 subunits. The subunits depend upon the organism whose haemoglobin is being talked about. So the normal haemoglobin found in red blood cells contains 2 alpha subunits + 2 beta subunits. At the centre of each subunit there is the haem part attached. To the centre of haem the Fe3+ ion are present which actually attaches to 1 Oxygen molecule. So as 4 subunits are present and each subunit has 1 Fe3+ ion, so total 4 Oxygen molecules can bind to the 1 Hb molecule!!
