The right answer is B) crossing over.

Crossing-over is a genetic phenomenon that occurs during meiosis and contributes to genetic mixing during reproduction (genetic recombination).

At the end of prophase 1 (early metaphase 1) of meiosis, the homologous chromosomes (i.e. of the same pair) overlap thus forming characteristic features called "chromatid tetrads" and exchange fragments of chromatids. The result is the intra-chromosomal mixing of the alleles

Would you expect endangered species to be more frequently generalists or specialists? explain your answer.
Vikki [24]
You should expect an endangered species to be more SPECIALIST. Animal species that can live in different types of environment and which can survive on different types of food are called generalist. This type of animal specie can not be easily endangered because they have high level of survival. The specialist animal species on the other hand are adapted to a narrow range of food and environment. Specialist species can be easily wipe out if there food resources is exhausted or if their habitat is destroyed.

All plants have a life cycle that consists of two distinct forms that differ in size and the number of chromosomes per cell. In flowering plants, the

A hibiscus flower, showing anthers, five stigmas, and pollen.

large, familiar form that consists of roots, shoots, leaves, and reproductive structures (flowers and fruit) is diploid and is called the sporophyte. The sporophyte produces haploid microscopic gametophytes that are dependent on tissues produced by the flower. The reproductive cycle of a flowering plant is the regular, usually seasonal, cycling back and forth from sporophyte to gametophyte.

The flower produces two kinds of gametophytes, male and female. The female gametophyte arises from a cell within the ovule , a small structure within the ovary of the flower. The ovary is a larger structure within the flower that contains and protects usually many ovules. Flowering plants are unique in that their ovules are entirely enclosed in the ovary. The ovary itself is part of a larger structure called the carpel, which consists of the stigma, style, and ovary. Each ovule is attached to ovary tissue by a stalk called the funicle. The point of attachment of the funicle to the ovary is called the placenta.

As the flower develops from a bud, a cell within an ovule called the archespore enlarges to form an embryo-sac mother cell (EMC). The EMC divides by meiosis to produce four megaspores. In this process the number of chromosomes is reduced from two sets in the EMC to one set in the megaspores, making the megaspores haploid. Three of the four megaspores degenerate and disappear, while the fourth divides mitotically three times to produce eight haploid cells. These cells together constitute the female gametophyte, called the embryo sac.
