Answer:
lithosphere
The lithosphere is the outermost mechanical layer, which behaves as a brittle, rigid solid. The lithosphere is about 100 kilometers thick. The definition of the lithosphere is based on how earth materials behave, so it includes the crust and the uppermost mantle, which are both brittle.

Answer:
DD or Dd
Explanation:
Dimples is the dominant trait (D). Your friend has dimples so that means he or she should have at least one allele of the dominant trait to express that trait. So your friend would either be homozygous dominant (DD) or heterozygous dominant (Dd). Notice that there is a recessive allele in the second. Even with that present, dimples would be still expressed.
Answer:
patella bone
Explanation:
Although, the condyles articulate with the tibia to form the knee joint. But, Anteriorly, the smooth surfaces of the medial and lateral condyles join together to form a wide groove called the patellar surface, which provides for articulation with the patella bone. The epicondyles(a protuberance above or on the condyle) provide attachment for muscles and supporting ligaments of the knee.
Posteriorly, the medial and lateral condyles are separated by a deep depression called the intercondylar fossa. The combination of the medial and lateral condyles with the patellar surface gives rise to the distal end of the femur a horseshoe (U) shape.
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).
In mitosis, the chromatin condenses to form chromosomes during prophase.
