Scientists studied reproduction in the New Zealand mud snail to answer the question, “Are there benefits to reproducing sexually
or asexually?” Which of these hypotheses would least likely aid the scientists as they worked to answer the question? Sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it reduces the rate of mutation accumulation. Asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it allows the snails to produce more offspring. Sexual reproduction is advantageous over asexual reproduction because it allows for snails to have increased genetic variation. Asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it decreases the snails’ need for social interaction.
The answer would be "Asexual reproduction is advantageous over sexual reproduction because it decreases the snails’ need for social interaction." It would be this because the question is asking "<span>Which of these hypotheses would</span><span>least likely </span><span>aid the scientists as they worked to answer the question?"
Asexual reproduction decreasing the snail's need for social interaction is least likely to aid scientists. </span>
All of these are the questions that involves ethical considerations because the method used in these questions are not doing naturally. Vitro fertilization is the fusion of woman's egg with the sperm of male outside the uterus of women which is unethical. Testing of unborn children in the womb for genetic disorders and producing genetically modify plants are also unethical because it does not occur naturally. It occurs due to intervention of humans in God's creation.
Evolution of an animal or plant group into a wide variety of types adapted to specialized modes of life. Adaptive radiations are best exemplified in closely related groups that have evolved in a relatively short time.
