Answer:

Sexual reproduction:

Pros: leads to greater genetic variation.

Cons: requires more time and energy.

Asexual reproduction:

Pros: Does not require finding a mate.

Cons: Produce less genetic variation.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in higher organisms, in which new individuals are formed by combining genetic information from two different types (sexes) of individuals.

Advantage: Sexual reproduction leads to higher genetic variation due to recombination between genetic material of female and male gamete during meiosis.

Disadvantage: Sexual reproduction is a time and energy consuming process as it needs interaction between mates and organisms which are produced sexually require more time for development.

Asexual reproduction involves formation of new organisms from a single parent organism without gamete fusion.

Advantage: Asexual reproduction requires less time and energy as it does not require finding a mate.

Disadvantage: Asexual reproduction produces less genetic variations as it involves only parent organisms (no mixing of genetic information) and the only source of variations are random mutations.

Answer:

        Sexual Reproduction                                 Asexual Reproduction

Pros Leads to a greater genetic variation          Does not require   finding a mate

Cons Require more time and energy                   Produce less genetic variation

Explanation:

Asexual mode of reproduction is the most simple and fastest mode of reproduction. Some common modes of asexual reproduction are – binary fission, budding, sporation, branching, etc.  

Asexual reproduction is a fast reproduction process in which genetically identical offspring are produced. It generally takes place in simpler unicellular organism or plants.  

While in sexual reproduction, genetically varied offspring are produced and also it requires two mates to intercourse therefore it is a time taking process as well

Hence, the correct match is

   Sexual Reproduction                                 Asexual Reproduction

Pros Leads to a greater genetic variation          Does not require   finding a mate

Cons Require more time and energy                   Produce less genetic variation

List the layers contained in the atmosphere and describe what is in each layer.
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Exosphere -The exosphere layer is mainly composed of extremely low densities of hydrogen, helium, and several heavier molecules including nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide closer to the exobase. The atoms and molecules are so far apart that they can travel hundreds of kilometers without colliding with one another.

Thermosphere - The aurora (Northern Lights and Southern Lights) mostly occur in the thermosphere. The thermosphere is a layer of Earth's atmosphere. The thermosphere is directly above the mesosphere and below the exosphere. ... Temperatures in the upper thermosphere can range from about 500° C (932° F) to 2,000° C (3,632° F) or higher.

Mesosphere- Most meteors burn up in the mesosphere. A type of lightning called sprites sometimes appears in the mesosphere above thunderstorms. Strange, high-altitude clouds called noctilucent clouds sometimes form in this layer near the North and South Poles.

Stratosphere-The stratosphere is the second major atmospheric layer above the troposphere, extending in altitude from about 8 to 30 miles high. No weather occurs in the stratosphere. The statosphere contains over 15% of the total mass of the atmosphere, and is where the ozone layer is located.

Troposphere-The troposphere is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere, and is also where nearly all weather conditions take place. It contains 75% of the atmosphere's mass and 99% of the total mass of water vapour and aerosols.

i hope this helps, good luck :)

How many covalent bonds can carbon make?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Carbon has four valence electrons, so it can achieve a full outer energy level by forming four covalent bonds. When it bonds only with hydrogen, it forms compounds called hydrocarbons. Carbon can form single, double, or triple covalent bonds with other carbon atoms.
