Let me explain something that can make you easily understand ok?

So as you know, humans has 46 chromosomes right?

Also, you know that when a gamete is formed there are 2 cell infused to form that 46 chromosomes. (The human cell and sperm)

IF the cells has 46 chromosomes each and it infused with another 46 chromosomes then the total will be 92 chromosomes and not 46 chromosomes. That's why the cell produced only has 23 chromosomes which is fewer so that when it form a genetic material, the total chromosomes will be 46 chromosomes.

Sorry if my english sucks, hope you understand REEEEE

you Are welcome

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

It would certainly make a difference.

Explanation:

The mass of a planet determines how thick the planets atmosphere would be, if it can even sustain an atmosphere. If all the masses are the same, all of the large planets would not be able to sustain life, while all of the smaller, denser planets still have a chance.

The mass of a planet also affects it’s gravitational pull. If all of the planets had the same mass, they would all have the same gravitational pull, meaning that they would all attract the same amount of asteroids, meteors, and other spacial objects.

Overall, the simulation would certainly be different, for many, many reasons. The above are only two, and if you would like more, just add a comment and I can give you more.

rusak2 [61]

Answer:the component materials and their arrangement

Explanation:

Bone are important for movement in animals.bones is made up of 15% water,30% collagen fibres and 55% mineral salts..bone cells are widely separated. The Collagen makes bones soft and flexible. Mineral salts makes it fragile and strong.

The osteogenic cells builds the bones and the osteoclasts breaks down older bone tissue, in order to keep the body strong.

Spongy bones contains tiny spicules that helps in strength.

It also reduces the weight of the bones .

The cells of Compact bones are arranged in the direction of stress to keep the bone strong.

They are constantly changing throughout life
