Which best explains how binary fission contributes to the genetic continuity of a population? A Binary fission maintains genetic

continuity because the daughter cells contain twice as many chromosomes as the parent cell. B Binary fission maintains genetic continuity because the daughter cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. C Binary fission does not maintain genetic continuity because the daughter cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. D Binary fission does not maintain genetic continuity because the daughter cells contain a smaller number of chromosomes than the parent cell.

Answer:

B Binary fission maintains genetic continuity because the daughter cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Explanation:

Genetic continuity ensures that genetic information is passed from one generation to another in correct way so that the resultant progeny has the complete set of genes required for survival. For example, at the end of mitosis, daughter cells should have the same number of chromosomes as parent cell.

Binary fission is a method of reproduction in some organisms like bacteria. It is an asexual mode of reproduction in which the parent cell splits into daughter cells without the process of fusion with another cell. It still maintains genetic continuity because the daughter cells are identical to the parent cell and thus have same number of chromosomes and type of genes.

Ocean acidification and its relationship to pH a<br> hi1
Serjik [45]

Answer:

Ocean acidification: Ocean acidification refers to the decrease in the pH of ocean water.

The pH of ocean water decreases due to the increased in the carbondioxode emissions in the atmosphere because of the burning of fuels. This carbondioxode is dissolved in the ocean water and forms carbonic acid. This carbonic acid is responsible for increasing the pH of ocean water. In one and half century, there is 30% increase occurs in the acidity of ocean water.

9. A food scientist baked one cookie dough sample at 350 degrees F for 13
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

There is no control.

Explanation:

If the scientist was testing something based on the different temperatures, they would need the amount of time in the oven to be the same for each cookie so that they can compare them. Without the times being the same, the scientist would not be able to tell whether the temperature or the time in the oven caused the differences in the cookies.
