Answer:

The somatic cells of fruit flies contain eight chromosomes, which means they have two sets of four chromosomes. Meiosis is the process by which sex cells are produced. Sex cells are haploid, which means they have one set of chromosomes.

Explain how the nucleus works with the ribosome to create proteins for the cell.
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

They receive their “orders” for protein synthesis from the nucleus where the DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA). This mRNA travels to the ribosomes, which translate the code provided by the sequence of the nitrogenous bases in the mRNA into a specific order of amino acids in a protein.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

a. midbrain

b. thalamus; hypothalamus, epithalamus

c. cerebral aqueduct

d. medulla oblongata

e. choroid plexus

f. pons; medulla oblongata; midbrain

g. hypothalamus

h. cerebrum

i. epithalamus

j. cerebrum

k. cerebellum

Explanation:

The brainstem is the posterior part of the brain that connects the cerebrum with the spinal cord. The brainstem can be divided into three parts: midbrain (i.e., mesencephalon), the pons (i.e., metencephalon), and the medulla oblongata (i.e., myelencephalon). The mesencephalon is a region of the brain composed of the tectum and tegmentum, which play fundamental roles in motor movement, auditory and visual processing. The corpora quadrigemina is found at the tectum region of the midbrain. The diencephalon is a small part of the brain located above the brainstem (between cerebral hemispheres); which contains the thalamus, hypothalamus, subthalamus, and epithalamus. In turn, the epithalamus is composed of the habenular nuclei, pineal gland, and the stria medullaris thalami. The cerebral aqueduct is a narrow channel (approx. 15 mm) in which the cerebrospinal fluid flows between the third ventricle and the fourth ventricle. The medulla oblongata is a long stem-like structure located in the brainstem of the brain, just in the place where the brainstem connects the brain to the spinal cord. The choroid plexus is a complex network of capillaries located at the cerebral ventricles of the brain, which serve to produce cerebrospinal fluid through ependymal cells that line the ventricles of the brain. The cerebellum is a major structure of the hindbrain and consists of the cerebellar cortex and a core of white matter having the cerebellar nuclei.

b. In 1979, the estimated elephant population was 1.3 million and in 2007 it was 640,000. By approximately what percentage did t
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The initial amount, 1.3 million = 1,300,000 is the 100%.

now, 640,000 is a given percentage (lower than 100%) of that.

How we can find it?

suppose that 640,000 represents an x%.

Then we have that the quotient between the actual quantities and the percentages must be the same

(640,000/1,300,000) = x%/100%

x% = (640,000/1,300,000)*100% = 49.23%

Then the percentage declined is:

100% - 49.23% = 50.77%

The other question can not be answered with the given information.
