What is a variation?
the tendency among similar organism to differ from each other to some degree.. The official definition for the word variation is "a change or difference in condition, amount, or level, typically with certain limits."
What is difference between a organism and a population?
An organism is One person/animal (or w/e the organism is) and the population is all of them in total.
Which organism occupy the baseof the pyramid?
which organism occupy the base of pyramid
Which organism has the smallest surface area to volume ratio?
The largest organism.
How does surface area to volume ratio affects an organism?
If the surface area of the organism is small, then there is no problem with getting all the oxygen needed. If the surface area of the organism is large, therefore a special respiratory surface is needed. An example is lungs, gills. The ratio of surface area to volume in a small organism is greater than the ratio in a large organism.
What is polyploidy?
Polyploidy is a condition in which an organism has extra sets of chromosomes beyond the usual diploid number. This can occur naturally or be induced experimentally. Polyploidy can lead to increased genetic diversity and may provide evolutionary advantages in some cases.
Each protein in an organism's DNA is coded for an individual?
Yes, each protein in an organism is coded by a specific sequence of nucleotides in its DNA. The genetic code determines how these sequences are translated into amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Each protein has a unique sequence of amino acids that gives it specific functions within the organism.
The condition in which a diploid cell has an extra chromosome is called?
Polyploidy is the condition in which a normally diploid cell or organism acquires one or more additional sets of chromosomes. In other words, the polyploid cell or organism has three or more times the haploid chromosome number. Polyploidy arises as the result of total nondisjunction of chromosomes during mitosis or meiosis.
What is the diploid number of an organism represent?
number of chromosome
The chromosome makeup of an individual organism is called a?
The chromosome makeup of an individual organism is called a karyotype. A karyotype is a visual representation of an individual's chromosomes, showing their number and structure. It is usually depicted as a chart or diagram displaying the chromosome pairs in a specific order.
What is the Term for an organism with the chromosome designation 3n?
An organism with the chromosome designation 3n is called triploid. Triploid organisms have three sets of chromosomes instead of the usual two sets found in diploid organisms. This can lead to infertility and developmental abnormalities in some species.
Does chromosome number indicate whether an organism is a plant or animal?
no
An organism that reproduces sexually has a diploid number of 30. How many chromosome will a gamete of this organism have?
15- apex
Is chromosomes eukaryotes or prokaryotes?
Chromosome is a condensed form of the DNA, not an organism. Therefore, it doesn't fit into either of the categories because it is not an organism to begin with. However, a chromosome is only found in a eukaryote because the formation and the split of a chromosome is part of mitosis, a division of the nucleus.
What is an extra set of chromosome?
An extra set of chromosomes, known as a trisomy, is when an individual has three copies of a particular chromosome instead of the usual two. This can lead to genetic disorders such as Down syndrome, which is caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21.
What fraction of its chromosome does an organism get from each parent?
Exactly 1/2.
To maintain the chromosome number of an organism the gamete must what?
Be produced by meosis.
