Answer:
The correct answer is: c) usually produces offspring that cannot reproduce.
Explanation:
Hybridization, also knowns as selective breeding, is an <u>artificial process</u><u> that involves selecting parents with specific characteristics in order to obtain an offspring with the same traits</u>.
Hybridization is very common and has been performed by humans for thousands of years: from selective breeding crop plants, to do so with dogs in order to create more desirable breeds.
Option A is incorrect because hybridation does not occur in nature, it is an artificial process.
Option B is incorrect because hybridation often happens when the selected parents are chosen to reproduce (by a human).
Option D is correct because an important amount of hybrids are sterile (for example: mules).
Option D is incorrect as well because the offspring is not identical: it shares a combination of genes from both parents.
<u>Cell culture i</u>s the method applied by scientists to grown, cells in the laboratory setting to study the cells for particular reasons.
Explanation:
Cell culture is basically a method for survival, reproduction etc which are done under controlled conditions in the space outside the environment. This is also used for data mining.
Purpose: Cell culture is used for propagation of virus
Advantages:
- Vaccine production by replication of virus
- Detection of viral cell of virus
- Convenient easy and economical method
Disadvantages
- Maintenance of sterile aseptic conditions.
- Increases microbial contamination
- Cross contamination takes place
