Plants absorb me from the soil through assimilation, I am eaten by animals the animals and plants die and decompose where I am released back into the soil, weathering and erosion cause me to release out of rocks, I then find my way into the ocean being carried by water, I then return to the soil through the water.
Re-posting some old information I found on this website
<span>When a fungus infects a body, it attacks the host by destroying and often taking over cells. When a person has an allergic reaction (to anything) the substance triggers the body to send histamines and excess water to the affected area, swelling and closing the area to prevent infection. - Answer Provided by ChaoticPiece</span>
Answer:
The question lacks options, the options are:
A). the body cell has 2n; the sex cell has 1n.
B). the body cell has 26; the sex cell has two.
C). the body cell has 1n; the sex cell has 2n.
D). the body cell has 24; the sex cell has 26
The answer is A
Explanation:
According to the question, the snapping turtle possesses 52 chromosomes in its cell. This means that the chromosomal number of its body cell is 52. However, the turtle, which reproduces sexually will produce gametes or sex cells via meiosis. Meiosis is the kind of cell division that results in daughter cells (gametes) that have a reduced number of chromosomes (by half).
Based on this, the diploid cells (2n) of the turtle with chromosome number 52 will undergo meiotic division to produce haploid gametes or sex cells (n) with chromosome number 26.
N.B: Diploid (2n) means two complete sets of chromosomes while haploid (1n) means one complete set of chromosome.
The body cell of the turtle contains two set of chromosomes received from each parent, hence, making it Diploid (2n). However, meiosis will reduce the chromosome number to one set in each gamete i.e. haploid (n).
NOT TRUE statement is <span>Both the genus and species are capitalized in binomial nomenclature.
In binomial nomenclature, BOTH the genus and species are ITALICIZED but ONLY the genus is CAPITALIZED.
Humans are classified as <em>Homo sapiens. Homo </em>is the genus. It's capitalized. <em>sapiens is the species. </em>But both terms are in italics.</span>
