Suppose you heard through various media of an animal alleged to be the hybrid of a rabbit and a cat. if the cat (felis domesticus) has a diploid chromosome number of 30 and a rabbit (oryctolagus cuniculus) has a diploid chromosome number of 46, what would be the expected chromosome number in the somatic tissues of this alleged hybrid?

38 chromosomes

Explanation:

Meiosis generates gametes that contain half the number of chromosomes of somatic cells. Therefore:

An hybrid between a cat and a rabbit would be formed from the union of a cat gamete (n=15) and a rabbit gamete (n=23) that creates a zygote that has 15+23=38 chromosomes. When the zygote divides mitotically, all its somatic cells will contain 38 chromosomes.

option a is correct i.e.

explanation:

in context to the membrane of nerve impulse, the outer membrane of neuron is semi permeable that is only sodium ions can pass through the membrane i.e. smaller ions can pass through the membrane while larger ions cannot pass through it.

a unit of heredity that is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring.
