What is recombination and how does it work? is it the same thing as crossing-over? if an organism practiced self-fertilization,

would all of its offspring be genetically identical? why/why not?

Recombination is the method by which organisms can randomly assort their genotypes amongst each other to create offspring with a different haplotype than either of its parents. This can be done by either copying sequences from one homologous chromosome to another (no physical exchange) or crossing over (physical exchange. 
Crossing over is a mechanism in eukaryotes by which recombination can occur, in which the two homologous chromosomes contributed by both parents literally cross over and break at certain points to exchange certain sections of the chromosomes amongst each together.
Self fertilizing organisms typically do not produce offspring that are genetically identical. However, this has an inbreeding effect on its offspring, since it is recombining from the same genotype and so has a higher chance of producing homozygous offspring. This is very detrimental for mammals and some eukaryotes, but in some other organisms such as bacteria, homozygosity is typically not an issue.

Chen J, Kim J, Dalton JT. discovered the therapeutic promise of selective androgen receptor modulators.

<h3>What are Androgens?</h3>

Androgens are crucial for male growth as well as the preservation of secondary masculine traits such spermatogenesis, muscular mass, bone mass, and body composition. Steroid androgens' unfavorable physicochemical and pharmacokinetic characteristics are their principal drawbacks. With benefits like oral bioavailability, flexibility of structural modification, androgen receptor specificity, tissue selectivity, and the absence of steroid-related side effects, nonsteroidal selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) offer a promising alternative to testosterone replacement therapies.

Earths atmosphere is warmed by the greenhouse effect because heat radiation from earth surface is what by gases in the atmospher
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Green House Effect is the Technique in Botanical science that is use in the garden to capture more light and decreases that amount of light that bounces back to the atmosphere. The light will be trapped inside a glass cage and be use by the plants in their photosynthesis. So if the earths will be affected by this technique, the gases from the atmosphere are mostly the reason that the light that is passes through it will not be the same that bounces back to the outer space. In a clearer way of explaining, the heat is trapped inside the earths atmosphere and may cause global warming inside of it.
