Cold water is a stable condition for Daphnia to survive. True or False
If a diploid cell of an organism has 10 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will be in the gamete of that organism?
5
Letter D
Stigma
Where does crossing over take place?
Prophase I
What is a gamete?
A reproductive cell
Fill in the blank: If the temperature decreases then the genetic variation of the water flea population will _________.
Increase
If a haploid cell of an organism has 30 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will be in the diploid cell of that organism?
60
Where does meiosis take place?
What is crossing over?
When the chromosomes exchange genetic information during prophase I
What do both types of reproduction have in common?
They pass on their genetics to the next generation. They are used to continue the survival of their species.
Does the evidence collected support the claim "If the temperature decreases then the genetic variation of the water flea population will increase" and why?
Yes because there is a greater amount of eggs in cooler water.
Turkeys have 80 chromosomes in each of their body cells. How many chromosomes are in an unfertilized turkey egg?
40
