What kind of protein is lactase, the biomolecules that speeds up the breakdown of lactose?

Lactase is a protein (enzyme) that speeds up the breakdown of lactose (milk sugar) into the simple sugars (glucose and galactose). Lactase is found in the small intestine of mammals and it is abundant during infancy but declines with age. Lactase is produced by the enterocytes (cells) that covers the intestinal walls and it creates the chemical barrier through which food molecules must cross for absorption by the intestines.

c) 50% there are four chromosomes. after crossing over, 2 of the four have been changed. that means any gamete has a 2 in 4 chance or 50% chance of receiving the mutated chromosome.

both male and female gametes are produced by meiosis of the germ cells. therefore, both male and female gametes are haploid. one male and one female gamete unite during the fertilization to form the diploid zygote. in seed bearing plants, pollen grain is the male gametophyte, which produces sperm cells.
