Answer:

reduced hybrid fertility

Explanation

The formation of mules  from the cross between female horses (mares) and male donkeys (jacks) is an example of reduced fertility because the mules are sterile and they cannot give birth to babies.

Reason:

Because mule cannot produce sperms. This has to do with his genetics. A mule has 63 chromosomes in total. He gets 32 chromosomes from his mom (that is a horse) and 31 chromosomes from his Dad (that is a donkey). As we know, it is very important for reproduction that chromosomes hould be present in two sets with equal numbers.

To reproduce he needs equal number of chromosomes because we know during meiosis chromosomes segregate and half number goes in daughter cells. But in case of mules he has an extra chromosome due to which he cannot undergo correct meiosis and produce sperms. That is ahy he stays sterile throughout his life. This is called reduced hybrid fertility

Nookie1986 [14]

It will have no effect because the order in which ingredients are mixed will not change the fact that matter cannot be created nor destroyed.

<h3>Effect occurs on mass</h3>

The order in which we add the ingredients do not affect the mass of the batter because the order in which ingredients are mixed will not change the fact that matter cannot be created nor destroyed.

The mass of the batter remains the same due to the incorporation of same quantity of ingredients so we can conclude that option A is the right answer for this question.
