As two students, who will be designated Student J and Student K, were studying together, they argued about the differences between Mitosis and Meiosis (both Meiosis I and Meiosis II). Student J maintained that it if they were looking at very good slides under the microscope and concentrated on Metaphase, it would be possible to tell the difference between the cells undergoing Mitosis, the cells undergoing Meiosis I, and the cells undergoing Meiosis II. Student K said it would be impossible to tell which nuclear division was occurring. Assume there are three unlabeled sets of very good slides of the cells of the common pea plant with one set showing Mitosis, one set showing Meiosis I, and one set showing Meiosis II. To repeat, the slides are unlabeled so the students don’t know which process is occurring in which set. However, the students know that the common pea plant has 14 total chromosomes (or 7 pairs of chromosomes). Explain carefully what Student J would be looking for at the…

C B 2089202222 a b d B А. a e The figure above shows images of five different cells. Each box contains an image that represents a cell of an AaBb dihybrid that is in some stage of meiosis or mitosis. The lines represent chromatids. The letters on the lines represent alleles. The shaded region shows the shape of the cell. Refer to this figure as you consider the questions below. Each box contains an image that represents a cell of an AaBb dihybrid that is in some stage of meiosis or mitosis. The lines represent chromatids. The letters on the lines represent alleles. The shaded region shows the shape of the cell. Refer to this figure as you consider the questions below. Each box represents a cell in meiosis or mitosis. The lines represent chromatids. The letters next to the lines represent alleles. The shaded region shows the shape of the cell. The A gene controls an X-linked trait. The B gene controls an autosomal trait. Refer to this figure as you consider questions X-Y below + 8)…

Sally took her dog Chester to the vet for some routine blood work, and asked the vet how many chromosomes (chromatids) were in each somatic body cell of her dog. The vet replied "Seventy eight of course!". Sally knows that the vet is referring to the diploid number of chromosomes with the number 78,but what is the haploid number of Chester's cells?   Question 3 options:   39   78   23   37
