Answer:

A daughter looks different from both her mother and her father.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division which occurs only in sex cells (germ cells) which are specialized cells present in only sex organs (gonads). So, meiosis can only occur in those organisms which have sex organs and reproduce sexually. Meiosis is a type of cell division which is meant for generating variations among individuals in a population. Because of variations, the off springs are neither exactly like their mother nor father. These variations occur because of a process known as crossing over in which exchange of DNA between homologous chromosomes of parents occur during prophase & metaphase of meiosis I. As a result of exchange of DNA segments, the progeny gets genetic material which is a blend of parental genetic material so the off spring is not exact replica of either of the two parents.

Answer:

$\frac{24}{5}$

Explanation:

$\frac{2}{1}$ ÷ $\frac{5}{12}$ =

To change the ÷ sign to a × sign, swap the denominators and the numerators of the second fraction.

$\frac{2}{1}$ × $\frac{12}{5}$ = $\frac{24}{5}$

Directly multiply. Numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators.

There are three ways sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity in a species. Choose two and explain each

Yuki888 [10]

So in order to form a new organism, two gametes -- the sex cells, sperm and egg -- must fuse, further mixing the genes to produce more genetic diversity. Asexual reproduction is one organism dividing into two organisms without shuffling its genes, so the offspring has the same version of genes as did the parent.
