Answer:

Bioluminescence is light produced by an organism using a chemical reaction. While usually blue in color, because this is the light that travels best through the water, bioluminescence can range from nearly violet to green yellow and very occasionally red.

Answer:

Because the red end of the visible light spectrum is absorbed before reaching the deep sea, most of the light emitted is blue and green. However, there are species that emit red and infrared light, and one genus has been found to emit yellow bioluminescence.

Most of the bioluminescence produced in the ocean is in the form of blue-green light. This is because these colors are shorter wavelengths of light, which can travel through (and thus be seen) in both shallow and deep water.

Using the illustration above, why are the chromosomes in two of the sex cells different from the chromosomes in the parent cell?

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: A the chromosomes from another parent cell were introduced

Explanation: A child is created when the male sex cell joins the female cell. If the male and female sex cells had the standard number of chromosomes, as is found in body cells then the zygote (baby) would have double that number of chromosomes. The number of chromosomes would keep doubling every generation. To avoid this doubling the parent's body cells split by miosis which halves the number of chromosomes and so when the sex cells join the total number of chromosomes is the same as that found in the parent's body cells.

Hallo~~

Your question is related to genetics.

Have you ever done a Punnett Square? This question forces you to make one. If your cross a homozygous type A (AA) and homozygous type O (OO) you should get 100% AO. Understanding genetics, an AO gene means a type A blood. Therefore, it's 100% type A blood (AO).
