Answer:

The correct answer would be B. Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity.

The main advantage of the sexual reproduction over the asexual reproduction is that it increases genetic diversity in the population.

It is achieved in two ways:

Genetic makeup the offspring is made by the combination of both the parental and maternal genome. Half of the chromosomes of the offspring are provided by the mother's egg and other half are provided by parental's sperm.

In addition, a unique event of crossing-over also takes place during the formation of gametes which also adds up to the genetic variation of the population.

Exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes takes place in crossing-over which results in the formation of a new combination of alleles in chromosomes.

It leads to the development of genetic diversity in sexually reproducing organisms.

How does blood defend against pathogens and toxins
Darina [25.2K]

Blood carries immune system cells, known as white cells or leukocytes. Some examples of white cells are phagocytes and lymphocytes.

Phagocytes ingest and dissolve pathogens, as well as strange particles or dying cells.

Lymphocytes are divided into T cells, B cells, and natural killer cells (NK). B cells produce antibodies to respond to foreign cells, T cells attack pathogens using enzymes and other non-antibodies responses, while NK cells combat tumors and cells infected by viruses.
