Answer:

c  haploid gamete cells

Explanation:

The vast majority of cells in the body are diploid, meaning they have two copies of every chromosome. However, like the question says, if during fertilization, the diploid cells fuse, then there will be 4x copies of every chromosome in the first generation, 8 in the second, and so on.

Meiosis creates haploid cells from diploid cells through one round of DNA replication and then two cell divisions to create haploid cells, one copy of each chromosome.

During fertilisation, when the gametes fuse, they make a diploid cell that develops into a new organism.

Transcription in bacteria differs from transcription in a eukaryotic cell because __________________________. (a) RNA polymerase
Serggg [28]

The correct answer is: (a) RNA polymerase (along with its sigma subunit) can initiate transcription on its own.

More differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic transcription:

• In prokaryotes transcription occurs in the cytoplasm (unlike in eukaryotes in nucleus) and it is simultaneous with translation,

• In prokaryotes there is only one type of RNA polymerase (in eukaryotes there are three types of them).

• There is no sigma subunit in eukaryotes, the initiation of transcription begins thanks to initiation factors.

• Promoter region in prokaryotes contains pribnow box, while in eukaryotes it contains TATA and CAT box.
