Answer:
the ecosystem will be disturbed... the animals feeding on it will be reduced due to lack of food and the animals on which the star fish was feeding will be increased which causes a total imbalance in ecosystem..
Answer:
each new cell needs a DNA copy, which serves as instructions on how to function as a cell. DNA replicates before a cell divides. The replication process is semi-conservative, which means that when DNA creates a copy, half of the old strand is retained in the new strand to reduce the number of copy errors.
Explanation:
The answer is <span>A. Meiosis: It increases genetic variation, which helps ensure the species will survive.
Meiosis increases genetic variation. This means there is a great variety of genotypes among the population. Hence, there are organisms able to survive in a wider range of temperature. If </span><span>there were drastic changes in temperature in an ecosystem, some of the organisms will survive because their genotype allows them to live in such conditions. If there were no variety thanks to meiosis, all of the organisms would die. And that is not beneficial to a species.
Imagine on the other hand that mitosis occurred. Mitosis does not provide a variety of genotypes and all of the organism will be the same. </span><span>If there were drastic changes in temperature in an ecosystem, all of the organisms would die because all of them could respond to the change in the same way.</span>
Answer:
Meiosis
Explanation:
Meiosis is one of the two types of divisions that cells usually undergo. However, meiosis is unique to sexually-reproducing organisms. Meiosis is the cell division which results in daughter cells with a reduced number of chromosomes (by half). Meiosis is used to produce gametes in sexually reproducing organisms.
According to the question, Labrador retriever contains 78 chromosomes in each of its muscle cells, which is a somatic cell. Since Labrador retrievers are sexually reproducing organisms, a male one will produce gametes (sperm cells) via the process of meiosis. At the end of the meiotic process, sperm cells with 39 chromosomes each will be produced.
