Okay so northern Africa and the Sahara desert is the best example of desertification.
2 ways humans have contributed to that is: 1) pastoral nomadism 2) little to no settlements to increase water supply
how it impacted the environment: so now the environment there is sandy, only organisms adapted for those extreme environment can live there ex. camel, cactus, etc.,
how it impacted quality of life: quality of life diminished, not enough water to sufficiently feed the populations, people live in extreme poverty, people are moving away, and the climate is very dry and hot, pretty much not a place anyone would want to live

Answer: D) it is a female with two recessive alleles
Explanation:
Since the shape is a circle, we know it is a female. Since the shape is shaded, we know the posses the recessive trait, meaning they must have two of it's alleles.
Answer:
Sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it reduces the rate of mutation accumulation.
Explanation:
The main advantage of sexual reproduction is that it increases the genetic variation in the species by creating new combinations of alleles.
However, asexual reproduction produces more offspring, as it is usually a quicker method of reproduction. It also does not require the organisms to socialise to mate.
Sexual reproduction does not reduce the rate of mutation, which is influenced by environmental factors as well as the genome itself.
Cross contamination means the transfer of pathogens from surface to another
