Answer:
the sun and carbon dioxide
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
Since the offsprings all exhibited purple phenotypic characteristics, It shows that in the gene coding for colour in the flower of the pea plant, the allele for purple colour is dominant over the allele for white colour.
It further shows, according to the law segregation, that the gametes produced by the purple and white peas are dominant and recessive respectively. This Indicates that the parent purple-flowered pea is homozygous dominant (PP) while the parent white-flowered pea is homozygous recessive (pp), hence all the offsprings will be heterozygous dominant (Pp).
Answer: Frameshift mutations are due to either insertions or deletions of nucleotides
Explanation: Frameshift mutations result in abnormal protein products with an incorrect amino acid sequence that can be either longer or shorter than the normal protein.
Reproduction is the biological process by which new organisms known as the offsprings are produced by their parents. It is of two types: Sexual reproduction and Asexual reproduction. The difference between the two types lies in the number of parents required for both. In Sexual reproduction, two parents are required to give rise to the offspring. In asexual reproduction, a single parent can give rise to the offspring. Asexual reproduction is commonly seen in plants but is less common in the animal kingdom.
The advantages of sexual reproduction:
produces genetic variation in the offspring
the species can adapt to new environments due to variation, which gives them a survival advantage
a disease is less likely to affect all the individuals in a population
In asexual reproduction there is only one parent. The offspring are clones of the parent and each other.
The advantages of asexual reproduction include:
the population can increase rapidly when the conditions are favourable
only one parent is needed
it is more time and energy efficient as you don't need a mate
it is faster than sexual reproduction
The disadvantages of sexual reproduction:
time and energy are needed to find a mate
it is not possible for an isolated individual to reproduce
The disadvantages of asexual reproduction include:
CONCLUSION:
it does not lead to genetic variation in a population
the species may only be suited to one habitat
disease may affect all the individuals in a population.
