The correct answer is that ferns have two part in their life cycle: Diploid phase and haploid phase
The life cycle of a fern has two parts: sporophyte stage and gametophyte stage. The gametophyte stage of ferns are haploid which releases gametes and the sporophyte stage are diploid that produces spores. This kind of life cycle is known as the "alternation of generation".
Answer:
Explanation:
Each chromosome represents a twin.like pairs of socks.
This is an analogous problem: you have 2 pairs of socks, one white, one black. Each of the sock is tailored to a specic foot, right or left. How many different ways can the socks be mixed and matched , one for each foot?
Here are the possibilities : left = black, right = black is one such match. Left = white, right = black is another.
so also we will have 23 chromosome pairs
Answer:
C
Explanation:
All living organisms' cell are composed of genetic material in form of DNA. The DNA encodes the information needed for the production of useful products (proteins). The way in which the information is encoded is called the GENETIC CODE. It consists of all the triplet nucleotides in DNA or RNA that encodes an amino acid.
This genetic code is universal i.e. the same genetic code is employed by virtually all living organisms, as a codon does not encode another amino acid in another organism. It is universal that AUG specifies Methionine in all living organisms. This shows that all organism share a common evolutionary history.
Hence, it is possible for an organism to express a gene from another organism since the same genetic code will be used to read the information in the gene.
