How does meiosis introduce genetic variation into offspring?

2 answers:

Answer: Meiosis leads to increased genetic variation by reshuffling genes and creating random genes. The variation produced by meiosis accounts for differences in closely related individuals, such as members of the same family, as well as genetic differences in people within larger populations

<span>Genetic variation is introduced as a result of the distinct crossing over of chromosomes in both phases of prophase. In the meiosis process, there can also be mutations in the s phase which are very unpredictable and can result in some very significant variations depending on where the coding is. by independent assoartment and 3 by mutations in s phase. Because of the way that </span>meiosis is set up it allows for the offspring to be either very similar to the parents or can even be very different from these factors.

4. Which pathway represents the flow of electrons during photosynthesis? (1 point) A.) H2O > Photosystem I > Photosystem I

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

4. The correct pathway for the flow of electron during photosynthesis is mentioned in option D. $H_{2}O$ > <em>NADP </em>> <em>Calvin cycle.</em>

Electron is first provided to the photo-system II by the phtolysis of water.
Then it is passed to photo-system I with the help of plastoquinone (PQ) and cytochrome $b_{6}f$ .
Finally, electron from the photo-system II is used to reduce NADP to NADPH.
NADPH and ATP are used in light independent phase or Calvin cycle to synthesize carbohydrate from carbon dioxide.

5. The correct answer is B.) photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants synthesize glucose or carbohydrate from carbon dioxide and water in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
In light independent phase of photosynthesis, it requires ATP and NADPH in order to synthesize food.
Lastly, oxidation or breaking down of glucose releases energy and photosynthesis is a anabolic process instead of catabolic one.

Alexus [3.1K]

<h2>Answer </h2>

Hybridization
Recombinant DNA
Selective Breeding

<u>Explanation</u>

1. Cross-breeding; a method that unionizes gametes of differing genes to create a new individual is hybridization. It is the idea of combining atomic orbitals into different hybrid orbitals that is proper for the pairing of electrons to create chemical bonds in valence bond as per the atomic theory.

2. Cultured DNA molecules from different biological sources is recombinant DNA. They are the molecules are DNA molecules determining by laboratory techniques of genetic recombination to take mutually genetic material from various origins.

3. A process of breeding organisms because of their specific traits is selective breeding. It is the method that grants humans practice animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop selective over phenotypic traits
