Do you think one reproductive process promotes higher genetic variation than the other?

Sexual reproduction produces far more genetic variation than asexual reproduction. I’m asexual reproduction, only one organism is needed. In this process they copy their own DNA and create an exact copy of themselves. So, if you think about it, all the offspring ever created by that one organism is going to have the same genetics as it. They’re all going to be identical. There is no variation, or differences, between any of the offspring and the original organism. Bacteria reproduces this way, although through binary fission, they can sort of reproduce sexually.
Sexual reproduction results in genetic variation. Two organisms are needed to create offspring. An egg cell and a sperm cell are needed from a female and male organism to create the new organism. Since two organisms are required, their offspring will be a mix of their DNA. This will create variation between offspring. Every new organism will have different genetics.
This is why more advanced organisms like plants and animals have different DNA even if they are the same species.

Why are all cells very small?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Cells are small because they need to keep a surface area to volume ratio that allows for adequate intake of nutrients while being able to excrete the cells waste. That is why the cell needs to be small. The smaller it is, the larger the surface area to volume ratio is. ... This is why cells are so small.

explicación:

The important point is that the surface area to the volume ratio gets smaller as the cell gets larger. Thus, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. ... That is why cells are so small.

In the absence of oxygen, a yeast cell undergoes fermentation and uses 100 molecules of glucose. How much net ATP will be genera
vredina [299]

Answer:

200 ATP molecules

Explanation:

Yeast is a fungus that undergoes fermentation instead of cellular respiration when there is an absence of oxygen. In the fermentation process undergone by yeast, which produces an alcohol as product (alcohol fermentation), two (2) ATP molecules are produced as net ATP.

However, if a yeast cell undergoes fermentation and uses 100 molecules of glucose, the yeast cell will generate a net ATP of 2 × 100 molecules = 200 molecules.
