How does random fertilization add to the genetic variation?

Biology
1 answer:
PilotLPTM [1.2K]3 years ago
4 0
<span>Random fertilization adds to the genetic variation thanks to B)Fusion of sperm and ovum, each having a unique combination of chromosomes, introduces further variation. Fertilization is a process of fusion of sperm and ovum. In a random fertilization, it is expected that sperm and ovum each have a unique combination of chromosomes. Thus, the created zygote will have a unique combination of chromosomes which introduces variation.</span>

Some people have low levels of calcium circulating in the blood, a condition known as hypocalcemia. while for many this disorder
kap26 [50]

Answer:

low level of calcium would result in fewer signals sent between pre and post synaptic cells.

Explanation:

The calcium has a main role in signal transmission mechanism and here is the mechanism :

1-the impulse reaches the synapse (depolarization which is a voltage change).

2-the voltage gated calcium channels open and let calcium flow into the cell.

3-the calcium causes the synaptic vesicles to rupture and release chemical transmitters which cross the synaptic cleft and finally bind to receptors on the post synaptic cell (transmitting the signal)

so it's obvious that if calcium concentration decreases, the signal transmission also decreases.

Which method(s) can be used to join double-stranded breaks in DNA? (choose all that apply)
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Option (a) and (d).

Explanation:

The breaks in DNA molecule may occur due to replication error and oxidizing agent. The double-stranded breaks in DNA can be corrected by Homologous end joining and non homologous end joining.

Homologous end joining is used to repair the DNA present in G2 nad S phases of the cell cycle. The homologous sequences of DNA is used to repair the DNA. Non homologous end joining occurs in the cell present at G0 and G1 phase of the cell cycle. The DNA broken ends are juxtaposed and later rejoin together by DNA ligase.

Thus, the correct answer is option (a) and (d).

user100 [1]
<span>B) Plant-based diets are usually lower in saturated fat and higher in fiber, which reduces risk of heart disease.

Saturated fats increase the risk for heart disease, so they should be kept lower. Fiber may help reduce overall calorie intake by keeping you full for longer. That way you maintain a healthy weight, which is important for</span><span> reducing </span>cancer<span> risk.</span>

What happens to a stimulus after the body receives it?
deff fn [24]

When a stimulus is produced it signifies the production of sensation in the sensory organs. This sensation through the sensory organs (eyes, ears, nose, skin and tongue) is sent to the sensory nerve connected to these sense organs. These sensory nerves send nerve impulses through the nerve fiber to the spinal cord. From the spinal cord the nerve impulse is transferred to motor nerves.

The motor nerve then sends response to the stimulus though the same path to the region from which stimulus was received and thus the body responds through muscular activity. Such as removal of heat from the heated object if heated sensations were received.

Do autotrophs need to perform cellular respiration?
nydimaria [60]
Many autotrophs make food through the process of photosynthesis, in which light energy from the sun is changed to chemical energy that is stored in glucose. All organisms use cellular respiration to break down glucose, release its energy, and make ATP. Autotrophs are also called producers. They produce food not only for themselves but for all other living things as well (which are known as consumers). This is why autotrophs form the basis of food chains.
Yes, autotrophs need to perform cellular respiration.
