Monoploid organisms reproduce asexually since they need to transmit all of their genetic material to their offspring. Diploid organisms, have 2 copies of their genetic material that differ slightly in their genes. Since the progeny gets half of the DNA from each parent, we have that new combinations can emerge; for example, if the mother is AA for some allele and the father aa, their offspring will be Aa, a new genotype. This might have different implications (for example, the recessive gene for thalassemia also provides resistance to malaria). Finally, during meiosis, there is also an event called crossover that increases the genetic variation of the offspring.
Answer:
This question is asking to identify the directional relationship between the following organs. They are explained below.
Explanation:
1. The heart is MEDIAL to the lungs because it is located towards the middle in relation to the right and left lungs.
2. The knee is DISTAL to the hip because it is farther away from the point of attachment of the hip joint.
3. The wrist is PROXIMAL to the hand because the wrist is closest to the point of origin of the hand.
4. The mouth is INFERIOR to the nose because it is lower in direction to the nose.
5. The thorax is SUPERIOR to the abdomen because it is located above the abdomen.
6. The thumb is DISTAL to the ring finger because it is far away from the ring finger.
7. The sternum is ANTERIOR to the heart because it lies in front of the heart
8. The skull is SUPERFICIAL to the scalp because it is close to the body surface.
9. The ears are LATERAL to the nose because it is towards the middle line of the nose
10. Dorsal refers to the BACK of the human body, while ventral refers to the FRONT of the human body.
Answer:
C.
It controls the entry and exit of substances.
Answer: I think it's A: the DNA of all organisms contains the same four bases.
