If a species normally has 52 chromosomes, the cells it produces by Meiosis will each have ____ chromosomes. 104 52 26 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm I can't decide between dividing the number by two or adding it. Give me a second to go double check.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its divide?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think by the wording you would add it because it says "by meiosis"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry I meant "produces by meiosis" that seems like addition to me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what would it be @jessiehuang_

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well 2(52) = 104

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have some more i need help with is that ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It just doesn't make sense to deduct when it says "produces by Meiosis"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Go ahead I'll see if I can help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How many pairs of chromosomes are in a human cell? 30 18 23 46

OpenStudy (anonymous):

23

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you take a look at what i sent to you @jessiehuang_

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes found in the original parent cell. Therefore, if a species normally has 52 chromosomes, the cells it produces by meiosis will each have 26 chromosomes. Meiosis Listeni/maɪˈoʊsɨs/ is a special type of cell division necessary for sexual reproduction in eukaryotes, such as animals, plants and fungi. The number of sets of chromosomes in the cell undergoing meiosis is reduced to half the original number, typically from two sets (diploid) to one set (haploid). see more at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiosis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh where can I find that? The last question? Bc I answered 23 for that one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what was the right answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first question, it was 26

OpenStudy (anonymous):

23

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just had all my wisedom thee puled and then all my k9's pulled so thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@HeatDude Oh so it was divide? xD I got confused. Second one is definitely 23 tho

OpenStudy (anonymous):

23 is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what is one and then the second one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1st one is 26, 52/2=26 second one is 23

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are genes? Proteins inside the nucleus of a cell. The part of a chromosome that determines inheritance. A female sex cell A male sex cell last one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm going to go with B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and what you think @HeatDude

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are two types of cell division: Mitosis and Meiosis. Most of the time when people refer to "cell division," they mean Mitosis, the process of making new body cells. Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells. Mitosis is a fundamental process for life. During Mitosis, a cell duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells. Because this process is so critical, the steps of Mitosis are carefully controlled by a number of genes. When Mitosis is not regulated correctly, health problems such as cancer can result. The other type of cell division, Meiosis, ensures that humans have the same number of chromosomes in each generation. It is a two-step process that reduces the chromosome number by half-from 46 to 23-to form sperm and egg cells. When the sperm and egg cells unite at conception, each contributes 23 chromosomes, so the resulting embryo will have the usual 46. Meiosis also allows genetic variation through a process of DNA shuffling while the cells are dividing. The passage is a review of Mitosis and Meiosis. Answer the following: a. What is one way Mitosis and Meiosis are similar? b. A human skin cell has 46 chromosomes. After Mitosis, how many chromosomes will each new skin cell have? c. What types of cells are produced from Meiosis?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

genes are what makes the person, it determines the eye color, skin color, length. kind of like dna in a way yes b is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is truly the last one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Both ensure that cells inherit genetic information. Both processes proceed after interphase, where the chromosomes are copied to form sister chromatid pairs.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^for part a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm pretty sure b is 46

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a: Both have cytokinesis that occurs during telophase. Both use spindle fibers (microtubules) to separate the chromatids from each other. Mitosis and meiosis occurs only in eukaryotic cells.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c. is gametes for sexual reproduction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

* haploid gamete cells

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're welcome friend, hope we helped :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I looked B up, it is correct. C is also correct. Good work @jessiehuang_

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you did thank you @jessiehuang_ @HeatDude have your back any time place or time
