How does sexual reproduction compare to DNA transfers in prokaryotes? (2 points)

Biology

Andreyy894 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is b. I and II

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is present in higher forms of life and absent in prokaryotes like bacteria. Sexual reproduction results in greater evolutionary changes due to the fusion of two different gametes from two different individuals of a species.

Therefore sexual reproduction helps in increased genetic diversity in higher forms of life. In prokaryotes like bacteria, genetic diversity is maintained and increased through DNA transfer from one bacterial cell to another with the help of a process known as horizontal gene transfer.

Bacteria have sex pilli which is used to introduce the genes to the other bacteria. By this process, they increase their genetic diversity and evolve continuously. So the correct is b. I and II.

Pani-rosa [81]
Let's make the alleles Tt, where T is dominant (tongue rolling) and t is recessive (inability to tongue roll).

The heterozygous tongue roller would be Tt and the non tongue roller would be tt. Putting them in a punnet square (refer to attachment), the chances that their child will be a non tongue roller would be a 50% chance.

Tt: 2/4 = 50%
tt: 2/4 = 50%

Answer:

Pseudopodia. (Ans A)

Explanation:

Pseudopodia are defined as the projections of the cytoplasm of the eukaryotic cell membrane, and unicellular protists. They are synthesized by the microtubules, and filament structures. They are divided into different shapes, and types such as: Lobopodia, Filopodia, Reticulopodia, and Axopodia.

Axopodia pseudopods are supported by microtubules array, they are covered by the cytoplasm, and mostly used for catch and ingestion of food. Genus Heliozoa, and Radiolaria of protists are example of Axopodia pseudopods.

Why do autotrophs have to go through BOTH processes?
Anton [14]

Answer:Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel. These primary producers form the base of an ecosystem and fuel the next trophic levels.
