Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

1. This is because there is varying degrees or amounts of habitats and areas that yet to be assessed and examined when carrying out the estimates of fungal species diversity which leads to a broad range of estimates.

2.  Also, with the increments in the numbers of different species accumulation that has currently been discovered; a 1.2% increase in species is discovered every year,

Hence, it is ideal to conclude that a large number of species are being discovered in the later research which is making the estimates to be different.

Which of these processes is LEAST associated with producing genetic abnormalities? A) deletion B) nondisjunction C) replication
Marat540 [252]
The answer is (C) Replication

Though occasional errors could occur in cells during replication; the cells have error checking and proofing mechanisms that reduce the rate of error to one to several million replications in higher eukaryotes.
After all, one mismatch error during replication would not result in major effects. The others choices, however, have higher rates of causing genetic abnormalities.
