True or false? A mating between a tetraploid individual and a diploid individual produces biologically fit offspring.

Biology

A cross between a diploid individual and a tetraploid individual produces triploid offspring.  There are many species of plants that are triploid, but those come from crosses between two triploid individuals. In those cases, the chromosomes from one parent match up with the chromosomes from the other parent just fine. The same is not true with a cross of a tetraploid and a diploid.  In that case, one third of the chromosomes are unmatch, causing many offspring to die, to be sterile, or to be generally unfit.  Long story short, the answer you seek is False.

Answer:

The two prokaryotic domains are Archaea and Bacteria.

The eukaryotic domain is Eukarya.

Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic are similar in which they have a plasma membrane and cytoplasm; meaning all cells have plasma membrane surrounding them. A difference between Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic is that eukaryotic have organelles, for example, a nucleus. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus.

Explain when changes in dna do and don't affect phenotypes
BabaBlast [244]
Some mutations don't have any noticeable effect on the phenotype of an organism. This can happen in many situations: perhaps the mutation occurs in a stretch of DNA with no function, or perhaps the mutation occurs in a protein-coding region, but ends up not affecting the amino acid sequence of the protein.

What is the difference from natural process of natural selection and artificial selection
stich3 [128]
Natural selection is a process where organisms that are suited to a particular environment are better able to survive and reproduce than organisms that are not. On the other hand, artificial selection is the breeding of animals and plants to produce desirable traits (traits such as size or taste). 

An example of artificial selection that is well known is the cross breeding of dogs.

Nature is responsible for natural selection, while humans are responsible for artificial selection.
