1.) Describe the process in meiosis that ensures that both maternal and paternal chromosomes are passed on to each spermatozoon.
2.)Explain why the genetic content of individual chromosomes in a spermatozoon most likely differs from the genetic content of individual chromosomes in a primary spermatocyte.
3.) In some instances, meiosis of a primary spermatocyte with six chromosomes results in two spermatozoa that contain four chromosomes and two spermatozoa that contain two chromosomes. Predict the most likely cause.
4.) A student claims that if the animal producing the spermatozoa has a mutation in a mitochondrial gene, the probability that any offspring will inherit the mutation is zero. Provide evidence to support this claim.

Apower company wants to build a power plant on the severn river in france. read the following details about the plant and then answer the question that follows: the plant will -provide 10% of the country's energy needs - has a tide amplitude of 11 meters - will be built across a narrow inlet (15 kilometers) -could reduce coal emissions in the area by 3 percent by replacing fossil fuel power - will alter the feeding grounds of local birds. it is unknown how these birds would adapt. fish in the inlet are able to pass through the turbines. occasionally, however, they can get trapped and die do you think this tidal power plant should be built? why or why not?
