a homogulous series is a series of hydrocabrons which have the same type of bonds. i.e. are grouped by either single, double, or triple bonds, and thus follow a generic formula for how many Hydrogens to a number of carbons

What are homologous chromosomes and what characteristics do 2 homologous chromosomes share?
Homologous chromosomes have the same shape, size and position of the centromere. They have the same genes in the same order.
Homologous chromosomes are similar in all of these characteristics EXCEPT?
carry the same alleles for all traits
Matched chromosomes carrying information about the same characteristics in the organism are called chromosomes?
homologous
The similarity of the characteristics of sheep and reindeer is due tohen their having a common ancestor This sort of phenomenon is called?
Homologous characteristics (as opposed to analogous characteristics, eg a bats wing and a birds wing). So I guess its called homology?
Why don't the sex chromosomes have true homologous partners like the autosomes?
Well... they can. In females (who contain XX chromosomes) there is a homologous pair of chromosomes. In males (XY) the Y chromosome must be in existence to activate the development of male characteristics... Otherwise they'd be females.
What best describes chromosomes that contain genes for the same characteristics?
Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes are called homologous chromosomes.
What are homologous chromosomes and what characteristics do 2 homologous chromosomes share?
Homologous chromosomes have the same shape, size and position of the centromere. They have the same genes in the same order.
What three characteristics of the chromosomes are the most useful in matching homologous pairs?
There are two main characteristics of the chromosomes that are the most useful in matching homologous pairs. These two are size and viz.
What was comparative embryology trying to prove?
used to prove the analogous homologous characteristics of evolution

Matched chromosomes carrying information about the same characteristics in the organism are called chromosomes?
homologous
How are genes aligned on homologous?
The genes are aligned between the pole, since it's involving homologous chromosomes, where all characteristics of chromosomes are the same, it kind of makes sense that identical genes would be aligned between the poles.

What is another name for a chromosome?
Homologous chromosomes are chromosome pairs of the same length, centromere position, and staining pattern, with genes for the same characteristics at corresponding loci. One homologous chromosome is inherited from the organism's mother; the other from the organism's father.[1]
What does a pair of homologous mean?
Those chromosomes having pairs of approximately the same length, centromere position, and staining pattern, with genes for the same characteristics at corresponding loci are known to be homologous chromosomes. One homologous chromosome is inherited from the organism's mother; the other from the organism's father. They are usually not identical, but carry the same type of information.
