Which of the following represents a possible chromosome number of a species that uses sexual reproduction, and why? A
62, because this number will create a diploid cell, the result of both female and male gametes combined.
B
62, because this number will create a haploid cell, allowing both female and male gametes to be combined.
С
23, because this number will create a diploid cell, the result of both female and male gametes combined.
o
D
23, because this number will create a haploid cell, allowing both female and male gametes to be combined

B. 62, because this number will create a haploid cell, allowing both female and male gametes to be combined.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction involves two organisms to come together (male and female). Sexually-reproducing organisms make use of a process called MEIOSIS to produce gametes or sex cells, which have a reduced number of chromosomes as the parent cells producing them.

A sexually reproducing organism must contain a complete diploid chromosome number (2n) that allows it to produce cells with a haploid chromosome number via meiosis. The haploid gamete cells that result from each meiotic divisions of male and female parents can combine to form a whole diploid organism.

"menstrual cycle is a complex cycle that consists of several processes. order of occurrence of steps in menstrual cycle are as follows:

1. high progesterone levels maintain the endometrium lining of the uterus.

2. endometrium lining breaks down and low levels of estrogen stimulate the pituitary to release fsh and lh.

3. fsh and lh stimulates the follicles to develop and the oocyte to produce estrogen.

4. rising estrogen levels suppress fsh production and development of other follicles.

5. a spike in lh causes follicle to rupture.

6. a breakdown of corpus luteum causes progesterone level to drop."
