Aferret's haploid number of chromosomes is 20. how would the number of chromosomes in the ferret's body cells compare to the number of chromosomes in its gametes a. its body cells would have 20 chromosomes, and its gametes would have 40 chromosomes. b. its body cells and gametes would both have 40 chromosomes. c. its body cells and gametes would both have 20 chromosomes. d. its body cells would have 40 chromosomes, and its gametes would have 20 chromosomes. es?

Answer;

D. Its body cells would have 40 chromosomes, and its gametes would have 20 chromosomes

Explanation;

-A diploid number of chromosomes means that a cell has two sets of chromosomes in their nucleus, while haploid number of chromosomes means that the cells have only one set of chromosome pairs.

-Somatic cells or body cells divide by mitosis, which means the diploid number of chromosomes is always retained, as the daughter cells are similar to the parent cells. In gametes cells on the other hand, they are haploid since they result from the process of meiosis which halves the number of chromosomes.

-Therefore, in this case,the body cells would have 40 chromosomes, which is the diploid number, and its gametes would have 20 chromosomes, the haploid number.

starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates.

starchy vegetables contain more carbohydrates than non-starchy vegetables.

explanation:

there are two primary categories of carbohydrates, essentially differentiated on the basis of their carbohydrate content (which is in the form of starch - a complex carbohydrate):

those vegetables which contain little amounts of starch are termed as non-starchy vegetables, and some examples include: artichokes, broccoli and bean sprouts.

vegetables high in their starch content are distinguished as starchy vegetables, and some examples include: potatoes, chickpeas and corn.

substitution is the answer in this case
