Explanation:
Xenopus laevis is allotetraploid: it has 2 sets of homologous chromosomes originally from one species and 2 sets of homologous chromosomes originally from another species, making a total of 4 sets of chromosomes. During meiosis, every chromosome has another homologous one with which it can pair, producing viable gametes that have the complete genetic information of the species.
Mules, however, are allodiploid: they have one set of chromosomes from a donkey and another set from a horse, making a total of 2 sets of chromosmes. But those two sets are not homologous, so during meiosis the chromosomes can't pair and the gametes will have errors that make them inviable, making mules sterile
C is the only bad sounding thing out of this bunch.
Answer:
The correct answer is - true.
Explanation:
Primates are the third diverse group of mammals after rodents and bats. It is considered that it has diverged from other terrestrial mammals about 65 million years ago.
Defining and identifying the primates on the basis of certain anatomical and behavioral traits is not an easy task. There are almost 400 living species of primates are known.
