A

1 pair

17
Q

What are males chromosome

A

Xy

18
Q

What are female chromosomes

A

Xx

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

A

Stimulus

24
Q

What does the stimulus do

A

Detects changes in environmental (internal condition)

25
Q

Example of a stimulus

A

The concentration of glucose in your blood

26
Q

What does co ordination centre do

A

They receive and passes the information from the stimulus

27
Q

Example of Co ordination centre

A

Brain , spinal cord , pancreas

28
Q

What is a effector

A

To carry out the response and restore the optimum level

29
Q

What is a example of a effector

A

A muscle or gland

30
Q

How many time does meiosis split

A

Two divisions

31
Q

How many times does mitosis split

A

One time

32
Q

Order of nervous pathway

A

Stimulus- receptor - sensory neuron -cns-motor neurons-effector -response

33
Q

Describe mitosis

A

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
Q

Describe meiosis

A

Four daughter cells
Daughter cells are not genetically identical
Divide twice
Chromosome reduce by half so 23
Produce gannets for sexual reproduction

35
Q

Fossil could be

A

Remains of an organism has not decayed
Traces of organisms such as footprints and burrows
