46 chromosomes, because they have the same amount of chromosomes as parent cells
context clues,
the meaning is a strong image
Answer:
A common misconception is that scientific theories are rudimentary ideas that will eventually graduate into scientific laws when enough data and evidence have been accumulated. A theory does not change into a scientific law with the accumulation of new or better evidence.
Explanation:
Answer:
a. the segmented body plan of the annelids
Explanation:
- lophotrochozoan is a taxonomy of animals that includes annelids, bryozoans, and brachiopods.
- This taxonomy of creatures was defined in 1995 as the last ancestor of the taxa of worms, mollusks, and annelids. Their classical definition depends on the topology of the spiral tree of life.
- Annelids have a segmented body part wherein the external morphological features are repeated in every body segment. It allows the animal to become bigger and makes their movement more fat and efficient.
Greater genetic diversity, compared to asexual reproduction.
If you think about it, this makes sense because in asexual reproduction, an organism reproduces all by itself, and uses its own genome as the blueprint for its' offspring. However with sexual reproduction, two organisms come together, each contributing half the required chromosomes, and the offspring gets 1/2 it's genes from the mother and 1/2 it's genes from the father. Sexual reproduction allows for greater diversity because it doesn't just rely on mutations to add new diversity to the genepool.
