Answer:
To complete the question: a diploid organism has four pairs of chromosomes what proportion of gametes would be expected to contain some chromosomes from both parental and maternal origin? assume that there is no crossing over
Answer: 7/8
Explanation:
A diploid organism with four pairs of chromosomes...
Assume that the organism receives chromosomes A, B, C and D from the female parent and A', B', C' and D' from the male parent.
Proportion of gametes from patterns origin is the same as that of matters origin, this we have:
(1/2)^4 = 1/16 where 4 reps the number of possibilities, 1/2 rep the chance
Thus, the proportion of gametes expected to contain some chromosomes from both parental and maternal origin would be
(1 - (1/16 + 1/16)) = 14/16 = 7/8
Answer:
B. The part of an aquifer where surface water reaches the water table
Explanation:
The recharge area of an aquifer, is the area where the aquifer comes in touch with the surface water. At this area, the aquifer is receiving new and fresh water reserves from the surface, thus replenishing the water that it has lost. Most of this water comes from the rainfall and runoff, though rivers and streams can also contribute to it. The recharging of the aquifer is crucial for its existence, as it constantly loses water, and the recharging in giving back water to it, thus balancing the lost and gained water in it.
Answer:
<u> Neuromuscular Junction -</u> It is a chemical synapse formed by the contact between a motor neuron and a muscle fiber.
<u>Function- </u>As the motor neuron are <em>able to transmit the required signals</em> to the muscle fiber, which causes the muscle contraction.
Explanation:
<u>Steps in neuromuscular transmission:</u>
- calcium entry into the presynaptic terminus.
- diffusion of Ach across cleft.
- combination of Ach with post-synaptic receptors and Ach breakdown via esterase.
- opening of Na + /K + channels (cation channels).
- postsynaptic membrane depolarization (EPP).
Walking upright.
You can make a case for all of them, but for three of them indirectly.
But the answer, I think, is walking upright.
You can look at the pelvic bones and femur orientation in the hips. You can also look at the way the skull sits on the vertebra.
Chimpanzees have a skull that sits more downward, because they walk on all fours most of the time. While humans have skulls that sit more horizontally on the vertebra, which allows us to see out on the horizon more easily. We can do that because we stand on two feet.
I hope that helps.
