Answer:
The correct answer is - 2n = 41 chromosomes.
Explanation:
It is given that the cat has a diploid chromosome number of 38 while the rabbit has a diploid number of 44 chromosomes and if they form a hybrid then their expected chromosome number in somatic cells would be -
Cat (2n=38) produces haploid gametes with 19 chromosomes (n-19).
Rabbit (2n=44) produces haploid gametes with 22 chromosomes(n=22)
19+22= 41 chromosomes in the particular hybrid as half number of chromosomes come from each parent.
Answer:
b. making an observation and asking a question
Explanation:
In scientific method there need to be a situation to be study. In this description, the scientist first observed that in a certain region there is some kind of trees and the other variable is the great amount of deer.
After making different observations, and some research of other areas similar to the one that is study, she is asking what is the relation among the animals and the trees.
The next step will be to formulate a hypothesis using all the data and the two variables that she observed.
Pap smear (Papanicolau smear) is a procedure that involves swabbing the endocervix (inner part of the cervix), ectocervix (outer part of the cervix), and the vaginal walls. This smear will then be fixed and then viewed through a microscope to check for atypical cells (or cancer cells). Pap smear has a 95% sensitivity so pap smear can detect cervical carcinoma 95% of the time.
Answer:
explanation below
Explanation:
A) Biodiversity is simply known as the number and variety of organisms found in a definite environment or region. Scientists have devised several ways of measuring biodiversity and the methods to be used depend on the type of organisms they are to count.
Canopy fogging – one of the ways of measuring biodiversity, has remained an effective way of obtaining details about the biodiversity of insects. It involves the act of spraying low dose of insecticides on a tree top, and when the insects fall from the trees, they are being collected on a large screen, that looks like a funnel.
Transact sampling is another way of measuring biodiversity and this time, with a transact line. The transact line is usually a measuring tape or rope that has been marked at set intervals.
b) Ecosystem stability is the ability of the ecosystem to maintain its steady state, even after it has experienced stress or disturbances. The biodiversity of an environment makes huge impact on the ecosystem stability in that particular area. It has been known that certain areas that have high levels of species and genetic diversity, are more likely going to an ecosystem that is complex, with varying food webs and biotic interactions. The increase in this complexity makes it more likely that the ecosystem of that area will rightly move back to a stable state whenever disturbances are experienced.
There are evaluated scientific evidence that shows that reduced biodiversity affects the transmission of communicable disease in agricultural crops, animals and humans. Loss of biodiversity usually increases susceptibility to diseases in plants and humans.
