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

Advocard [28]

The adaptive advantage of a fungus producing and secreting a bacterial inhibitor would be that it protects against microbial competitors: is an extensive surface area well suited for invasive growth and absorptive nutrition.

Fungus

A fungus is any eukaryotic organism that includes microbes like yeasts and moulds, as well as the more recognisable mushrooms. These organisms are classed as a kingdom distinct from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista in one traditional taxonomy.

The presence of chitin in fungi's cell walls distinguishes them from plants, bacteria, and some protists. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they obtain nourishment by absorbing dissolved molecules, usually by secreting digestive enzymes into their surroundings.

Fungi, like plants, use chemical defence, which involves the creation of poisons that affect the growth, development, or viability of the antagonists.
