Answer:
8 possible combinations
Explanation:
In a diploid organism (2n), there are two sets of chromosomes in each cell. Each set of chromosome is contributed by each parent i.e one set of chromosome from the father and one set from the mother.
To determine the number of possible combinations in each gamete of a cell, we use the formula 2^n, where n = number of chromosomes in haploid gametes. In this case, the cell contains 3 pairs of chromosomes, meaning that each gamete will have 3 chromosomes. However, there will be 2³ = 8 possible combinations of chromosomes in each gametes.
Answer:
The 14°C sample is more dense than the 25°C sample.
Explanation:
Warm water rises, cooler water falls. Warm water is less dense than cooler water. The actual density of water changes about .4% as the water temperature changes from near zero at 0°c up to about 30°c. That may not sound like much. However, that is enough density change for cold water to flow below warm water. This can have an impact on ocean currents and other phenomena in the ocean.
