Answer:Asexual Reproduction Sexual Reproduction

Advantages Time Efficient; no need to search for mate, requires less energy Variation, Unique., organism is more protected

Disadvantages No variation - if the parent has a genetic disease, offspring does too. Requires two organisms, requires more energy

Explanation:While asexual reproduction only involves one organism, sexual reproduction requires both a male and a female. Some plants and unicellular organisms reproduce asexually. Most mammals and fish use sexual reproduction. Some organisms like corals and komodo dragons can reproduce either sexually or asexually. But in the long term (over several generations), lack of sexual reproduction compromises their ability to adapt to the environment because they do not benefit from the genetic variation introduced by sexual reproduction

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Dementia

Explanation:

Dementia is a condition that involves impaired mental ability and memory which is common among older adults. This condition, which is a major contributor to disability and placement of older adults in nursing homes, can be as a result of several factors of which nutrition has a major role to play. Metabolic and endocrine problem that results to the inability of the body system to regulate nutrients such as calcium and vitamin B-12, are some of the factors that triggers dementia in older adults. Also, nutritional deficiencies such as dehydration, inadequate intake of vitamin B-1, vitamins B-6, copper,vitamin E, and vitamin B-12 increases the chances of developing dementia in older adults.

Research shows that low levels of vitamin D can be linked to increased risk of developing dementia, and as such, supplements such as B-complex vitamin, vitamin C, and vitamin D is usually recommended for the prevention of dementia, especially when they are deficient in the diets taken.

Dominik [7]
The correct answer is "ovulation" and "corpus luteum" respectively. In ovulation, the egg ruptures from the mature follicle (called the Graafian follicle). This process is preceded by the sudden rise in luteinizing hormone. The follicle now becomes the corpus luteum, actually does not secrete estrogen, it secretes progresterone which prepares the uterine lining for pregnancy.
