Answer : 1. "(1)"
Explanation :

Answer: A) (1) Explanation: The error lies in part (1).  As the phrase 'as much as' needs to be replaced with 'much as I'. This is because we use 'as much as' for comparing two qualities or things. But here in the given sentence a contrast is given in the latter part of the sentence. So we need a conjunction like 'even though' 'although' etc... 'Much as I' also serves the same purpose.

Answer : 1. "23"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 23 Explanation: 23 chromosomes are in a human gamete. Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes(23 pairs) but a gamete(germ cell) gets half the amount, i.e. 23 chromosomes, (one from each pair). There will be half the number of chromosomes an organism has in its somatic cells (all other body cells except gametes).   For example in humans, the somatic cells contain 46 chromosomes which are the diploid number (2n) and each sperm and egg has 23 chromosomes where one of them is the sex chromosome.
