The process of ____________ increases genetic variability as it produces gametes for sexual reproduction.

Biology

The phrase to fit into the blank is "sexual reproduction"!
In sexual reproduction each of the parents produces a gamete and contributes to half of the  offspring's genes. This means that the offspring is a unique composition of the two parents.

In contrast, in a asexual reproduction, the offspring would likely have the same genetic code as the parent.

1.) What gives water all its properties? 2.) What type of bond joins H2O to another H2O and forms cohesion? 3.) What property of
Yuri [45]

Answer:

1. polarity

2. hydrogen bonding

3. High heat capacity

4. Adhesion

5. polarity

6. surface tension

7. high heat vaporization

8. hydrogen bonds form a rigid and stable network

9. Water is a polar substance and fat is a nonpolar substance.

10. Cohesion

Explanation:

Water is a polar molecule that is held together by hydrogen bonds to form strong cohesive forces. This accounts for the surface tension in water. Surface tension is the force acting on water that it makes to behave like a stretched elastic skin.

The polarity of water accounts for the fact that it is found in several parts of the body where it largely plays the role of a polar solvent.

High heat capacity of water enables it to function well in the area of thermoregulation in the body. High heat vaporization accounts for the fact that water helps maintain extreme temperature changes in an area.

When in solid state, the hydrogen bonded network in water becomes rigid and forms a very stable network of water molecules. Being polar, water does  not interact with fat because like dissolves like.

In plants, the attachment of water to plant roots is known as adhesion and is necessary for the capillary movement of nutrients to plants via the root.

Scientific thinking: how can scientists assess the health risks of trans fats
Klio2033 [76]
Scientists can access the risks of trans fats by conducting an appropriate experiment which will show the effects of the fats on the human system.
This can be done by feeding known quantity of trans fats to rats over a specific period of time. During the period, the change in the rat weights will be measured on the daily basis and every other changes that is noted in the rats will be noted down. A control group of rats will be included in the experiment; these rats will be given normal rat feeds and not trans fats.
 When the period of feeding is completed, the rats will be killed, all the organs in the rats such as liver, blood, brains, kidney, etc will be harvested and these organs will then be biochemically analysed in order to compare the changes in them with that of a normal rats.
Rats are usually used in biochemical research because their systems and that of human is comparable. Any negative effect of trans fats that is noted in the rats will also hold true for human beings.

Suppose that an arginine residue in the active site of an enzyme was mutated to alanine. As expected, the alanine mutant was ina
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

c. A to K

Explanation:

If the alanine mutation is restored to K or lysine residue, most likely the wild type level of activity can be restored. This is because, arginine and lysine have -NH2 as the functional group. So, functional similarity of arginine can be expected from lysine as well.

Hence the correct option is c that is A to K.
