Q

How many pairs of chromosomes decide what sex you are

17
Q

What are males chromosome

18
Q

What are female chromosomes

19
Q

What are alles

A

the different versions of the smae gene

20
Q

What are enzymes

A

Cells that can’t work well with each-other if the conditions around them change too much

21
Q

Example of automatic control systems

A

Nervous system or hormones

22
Q

What is homeostasis

A

Homeostasis is defined as a self-regulating process by which a living organism can maintain internal stability while adjusting to changing external conditions

23
Q

What are respecter cells know as

24
Q

What does the stimulus do

A

Detects changes in environmental (internal condition)

25
Example of a stimulus
The concentration of glucose in your blood
26
What does co ordination centre do
They receive and passes the information from the stimulus
27
Example of Co ordination centre
Brain , spinal cord , pancreas
28
What is a effector
To carry out the response and restore the optimum level
29
What is a example of a effector
A muscle or gland
30
How many time does meiosis split
Two divisions
31
How many times does mitosis split
One time
32
Order of nervous pathway
Stimulus- receptor - sensory neuron -cns-motor neurons-effector -response
33
Describe mitosis
2 daughter cells The are genetically identical Divides once Daughter cells are the same as parent in humans 46 chromosomes Growth and repair asexual reproduction
34
Describe meiosis
Four daughter cells Daughter cells are not genetically identical Divide twice Chromosome reduce by half so 23 Produce gannets for sexual reproduction
35
Fossil could be
Remains of an organism has not decayed Traces of organisms such as footprints and burrows
