Asexual Reproduction occurs when there is only one parent that gives rise to an offspring which has the identical genetic makeup

of the parent. It occurs in most single celled organisms such as bacteria and some multicellular organisms such as fungi and some plants. Some advantages of asexual reproduction are it is fast and efficient. It does not require a male and a female. Organisms can reproduce quickly! A disadvantage is that there is no genetic diversity and it can only be done by simple organisms.
Sexual Reproduction involves the combining of genetic information from two parents to produce a new organism that is a combination of both parents. It occurs in most complex organisms. Some advantages to sexual reproduction are that it creates genetic diversity. It allows for evolution of the species. A disadvantage is that it requires two organisms to reproduce, a male and a female. It also requires more energy than asexual reproduction.

Using the table below, list at least two advantages and disadvantages of Asexual and Sexual Reproduction.

Sexual reproduction:
Advantages: A species can evolve or adapt to changing environments, genetic diversity
Disadvantages: Time and energy needed to find a mate, requires both male and female gametes, one individual cannot reproduce

Asexual reproduction:
Advantages: Only one individual is needed to reproduce, doesn’t require time or energy to find a mate, can reproduce rapidly in good conditions
Disadvantages: No genetic variation, all of the offspring have the same weaknesses, can’t adapt or evolve

A eukaryotic cell that is involved in synthesizing large amounts of protein might be expected to have
Firdavs [7]
A eukaryotic cell that is involved in synthesizing large amounts of protein might be expected to have a lot of ribosomes. Ribosomes are dot like structure that are located around the rough endoplasmic reticulum. They are where proteins are made. There are also a few that are located in the cytoplasm. These ribosomes are the ones that give the endoplasmic reticulum a rough edge.

Answer:

The artificial reef would decrease erosion of the coastline.

Explanation:

Artificial reefs are created in area where there is little uderwater topography or near established coral reefs to imitate or even substitute for natural coral reefs where they are absent or endangered due various factors which are mostly human in nature. The artificial serves to provide a habitat for marine organisms and ensure more biodiversity around the area by providing shelter from predation and surfaces for encrusting organisms such as corals and sponges to grow on. The growth of these lower level food chain organisms attract larger predator organisms thereby increasing the biodiversity in the area.

Artificial reefs are made from a variety of materials such as shipwrecks, construction debris, oil rigs, concrete, and any other man-made objects. Since reef structures protect shorelines against waves, artificial reefs would decrease the erosion of the coastline providing benefit to the people living along the coastline by preventing the destruction of beaches and coastal property,
