D. Genetic Engineering
Doesn’t matter if it takes hundreds of years or a couple weeks, if there is an intent to alter the genes of an organism to select for desired traits, it is genetic engineering.
It is important to know the division or phylum of the various plant species growing in your backyard so as to determine whether they will spread and ruin other crops and plants of yours. Not every plant is beneficial, so you need to know which ones to keep, and which to deplant.
I think it is erosion (2) because erosion removes soil, rock, and dissolved material.
Answer:
D Independent assortment occurs when chromosomes separate during meiosis and causes variations that can be beneficial or harmful to a species
Explanation:
During meiosis, the homologous chromosomes separate and segregate independently of each other. This process is referred to as 'independent assortment'. In consequence, different gene variants or 'alleles' localized in homologous chromosomes segregate independently of each other during gamete formation, thereby one particular gamete has an equal probability to carry either of these segregating alleles. Independent assortment generates genetic variation in the gametes, which can be beneficial or deleterious in a given environment.
