Answer:
1. 20 chromosomes
2. 10 chromosomes
3. 10 chromosomes
Explanation:
1. The process of mitosis results in the two daughter cells from the same parental cell with exactly the same genetic material. Thus the two cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Therefore if a cell with 20 chromosomes undergoes mitosis will result in the 20 chromosomes.
2. During meiosis I two daughter cells are formed with different ploidy levels as the number of the chromosome reduces to half. Therefore the cell with 20 chromosomes results in two cells with 10 chromosomes.
3. During meiosis II, the two daughter cells formed from meiosis I result in the formation of two more daughter cells with an exact number of chromosome number that is 10 chromosomes.
Answer:
0%
Explanation:
Achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant disorder that is expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous dominant genotypes. Since two affected parents have a normal girl child, both the parents should be heterozygous carrier for the disease. Let's assume that the dominant allele "A" is responsible for the disease. Genotype of both the parents of the girl would be "Aa". The genotype of girl with normal stature is "aa". Genotype of her normal partner is "aa".
A cross betwee aa X aa would get all the progeny with "aa" genotype. Therefore, all of their children would have normal stature and there is 0% probability for them to have a child with achondroplasia.
Two factors contributed to the success of the pteridophytes: the extreme miniaturization of the gametophytic generation and an important development of the sporophytic generation (development of the tree forms).
Pteridophytes are a group of plants that peaked in the Carboniferous (-300 million years). It is the first great terrestrial plant civilization. These plants would have appeared in the Devonian -400 million years ago, perhaps from certain primitive terrestrial plants which, unlike bryophytes, would have favored the diploid generation on the haploid generation.
Particularly well adapted to terrestrial life, they have created, thanks to the development of tree forms, immense forests whose fossilization is at the origin of coal deposits.
Pteridophytes are at the origin of an evolutionary lineage based on the extreme miniaturization of gametophytic generation and an important development of sporophytic generation, leading to all tracheophytes including current flowering plants. Pteridophytes are well adapted to terrestrial life, however fertilization still requires the presence of water since male gametes are swimmers.
