What causes variations in asexual organisms?

Biology
1 answer:
Nezavi [6.7K]2 years ago
8 0
<span>Variations in asexual organisms are rather rare since they occur as a result of mistake of mitosis during DNA copying. On the other hand, variations in sexual organisms are a result of fusion of two different gametes that carry different traits. Thus, the offspring carries characteristics of both parents, resulting in greater genetic variation within the next generation. Consequently, sexual organism obtain greater genetic variation than asexuallt reproducing species.</span>

Since we now have the technology to use genetic fingerprinting to catch criminals, should we make every US resident provide a bl
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

It can be easily exploited by criminals, and it puts our undercover police officers and FBI officers in danger. Also, police officers are already swamped with work and criminal activity as is. It would also be ridiculously hard to get everybody already registered as a resident it the U.S. Take into account the different family types, and how hard it is for single mothers with children.

On the other hand, adding this, despite the obvious hardships, will make catching criminals much easier. Our blood DNA is unique to every human being. It would be extremely helpful to have a system like this in place. This would, at first, be hard to establish, but once it settles in, police officers would be able to spend much more time at home with their families instead of filling out paperwork for overtime.

The oil immersion objective is necessary to determine the morphology of prokaryotes
VLD [36.1K]
To clearly view the morphology of the prokaryotes, one needs a microscope with higher resolution i.e magnification of ×100. Use of oil for this purpose is important because it  reduces the refraction of light as it travels from air to glass. this process increases the resolution of the microscope making it possible to view morphology of bacteria.

Doss [256]

Answer:

B)no

Explanation:

Sustainable use of water means use of water to fulfil various human needs for water without having any negative impact on the environment.

The sustainable use of water allows a minimum of 20 to 50 litres of daily water per person to fulfil their water needs, that means 600 litres maximum per person per year but in the given situation the city uses 25,000 litres of water per person per year.

<u>This shows that people in the city are not using water sustainably which is causing a fall in precipitation.</u>

Hence, the correct answer is "No".

How does this show that the circulatory and respiratory systems work closely together?
lara31 [8.8K]
The respiratory and circulatory systems are close together by working and relying with each other. The respiratory system imports oxygen from the air  and that oxygen goes through out the body by the circulatory system pumping the oxygen. That creates carbon dioxide, which the respiratory exports from the body.
