Which statements regarding the life cycle of the malaria causing Plasmodiun Falciparum are true? Check all that apply. 1. The sporozites that enter the human body by a mosquito bite are haploid 2. The merozoites produced by liver cells are haploid 3. Merzoites in the bloodstream reproduce and are diploid 4. Some Merozoites produce diploid sexual structures called gametocytes 5. In mosquitoes, gametocytes produce gametes that fuse to form a diploid zygote. Please explain which of the statements are correct and why. Thank you.

Give explanation X and Y chromosomes are not homologs, but in meiosis they do pair and segregate in XY organisms to create 50% haploid gametes with an X chromosome and 50% haploid gametes with a Y chromosome. How is pairing achieved? a. Since all other homologous chromosomes pair, the remaining two chromosomes pair by default. b Pairing proteins are capable of binding to different genes on the X and Y chromosomes, which allows them to pair. c. None of the statements is correct. d. They don't actually pair. Random segregation generally ensures the X and Y chromosomes separate. e.Pseudoautosomal regions that are homologous exist at the tips of both the X and Y chromosomes, and they allow pairing.
