What is parthenogenesis? give an example

Biology
1 answer:
ANEK [815]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It's a form of asexual reproduction!

Development of the offspring happens without fertilization in this type of reproduction.

The two main ways in which parthenogenesis happens is by apomixis or automixis. Through apomixis , the egg cells are produced by mitosis. Through In automixis, egg cells are produced by meiosis.

Mitosis = a part of cell cycle: replicated chromosomes are separated into 2 nuclei

Meiosis = type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half. So now there is four haploid cells that are  genetically distinct from their parent cell.

Example:

An example of an animal that can use this reproduction is a bonnethead shark! Once a shark had a baby in a tank that only had three females!

(read about that on wikipedia)

How does global warming lead to climate change?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

global warming leads to climate change as global warming is caused by carbon dioxide trapped in the earth's atmosphere. sunlight can get trapped in the atmosphere as there is a high concentration of CO 2 so the sunlight hits the CO 2 and it bounces back to earth and because the CO 2 is covering the atmospehere it will keep on reflecting and that heats up the air causing water to evaporate and the climate to change
