Biology Questions

The blood of some invertebrate animals like the earthworm is red due to haemoglobin pigment, but the pigment is dissolved in the plasma. In vertebrates the same pigment is found in the red corpuscles and not in the plasma.

Synapsis is the pairing of two homologous chromosomes that occurs during meiosis. It allows matching-up of homologous pairs prior to their segregation, and possible chromosomal crossover between them.

Synapsis takes place during prophase I of meiosis.

It is also called as Syndesis.

Oxygen in our blood is transported by a protein named Haemoglobin.

Blood alcohol concentration is affected by factors such as body size and gender. Women are usually smaller than men, and that they turn out less of the enzyme that breaks down alcohol.

Protein synthesis at the ribosome is immediately preceeded by the transcription process.
