In letter A, obviously sexual reproduction requires to parent to produce an offspring.
in letter C, it's asexual instead of sexual reproduction. in asexual reproduction the offspring is identical to its parent.

in letter D, it is also asexual instead of sexual reproduction.

so the best answer is letter B, it genetically produce identical offspring.

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.

pentagon [3]

Answer:

This question is asking to identify the molecule being described.

The molecule is GLUCOSE

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants make their food using energy from sunlight. This food, which happens to be the product of the photosynthetic process is GLUCOSE molecule. Glucose is the source of energy during cellular respiration for plants and animals as it is broken down to synthesize ATP.

The process of cellular respiration, which is carried out by virtually all living organisms make use of the GLUCOSE MOLECULE. The energy stored in the glucose molecule is converted to ATP in the mitochondria.

From a population of red brown orange yellow and green butterflies only the red and green ones survive since they can blend into
Mnenie [13.5K]

The answer is natural selection.

In natural selection, genotype variations that will increase the chance of survival and reproduction of some organism are preserved and will be inherited. Red and green colors of butterflies increased the chance of their <span>survival and reproduction, so these traits will pass to the next generation.</span>

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

HPV DNA replication during its life cycle occurs in three separate phases (reviewed in [1, 2]). After viral entry into the cell nucleus and the activation of viral gene expression, the viral genome copy number increases to several hundred copies per cell during the initial phase of genome amplification.
