Which of the following statements are true. CHALLENGE BIOLOGYQUESTION PLEASE EXPLAIN IF POSSIBLE:
a. In meiosis, the chromosomal material doubles during the lastpremeiotic interphase.
b. The greater the number of chromosome pairs, the greater isthe effect of meiosis in producing genetically distinctgametes.
c. The diploid number of chromosomes is half the haploidnumber.
d. A cell that will not divide again remains in the GÂ2 stage ofinterphase.
e. The correct sequence of events during meiosis is: synapsis âdyad formation â chiasma formation
f. In an organism with n = 3, there is a 1 in 8 probability of agamete with all maternally derived chromosomes contributing to theproduction of a zygote.
g. An organism with n = 3 can produce 8 different kinds ofgametes in relation to combinations of maternal and paternalchromosomes.
h. Separation of sister chromatids occurs during anaphase I ofmeiosis and is the physical basis for the law of independentassortment.
i. A single diploid cell that undergoes meiosis in the maletestis will produce 4 genetically different gametes ifcrossing-over is ignored.
j. The independent alignment of different tetrads at metaphase Iof meiosis is the physical basis of the law of independentassortment.
k. If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosomes, there will be10 tetrads during prophase I of meiosis.
l. If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosomes, there will be20 bivalents during prophase I of meiosis.
m. If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosomes, there will be80 chromatids present during metaphase of mitosis.
n. If a diploid cell has 20 pairs of chromosmes, the organismcan make 202 types of gametes if crossing-over isignored.
o. Segregation of sister chromatids occurs during anaphase I ofmeiosis and is the physical basis of the law of segregation.
p. For an individual with a diploid number of 30 chromosomes,there will be 60 chromatids at metaphase I of meiosis.
q. For an individual with a diploid number of 30 chromosomes,there will be 15 tetrads at metaphase II of meiosis.
