How does segragation increase the genetic variability of sexually reproducing organisms?

Biology
1 answer:
Llana [10]3 years ago
5 0
<span>The law of segregation is a principle of Mendelian genetics. The law of segregation occurs during meiosis when gametes are formed. At this time, the alleles for each gene segregate from one another. As a result, each gamete contains only one allele per gene. Thus, the gametes are haploid. The gametes need to be haploid so the specie’s diploid number is maintained when the egg and sperm unite. As a result of the law of segregation, each diploid parent passes a random allele for each trait to his/her offspring during fertilization. Thus, segregation increases variation within a species.</span>

The advantage to the cell of the gradual oxidation of glucose during cellular respiration compared with its combustion to CO₂ an
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. energy can be extracted in usable amounts.

Explanation:

Through the process of respiration, glucose is converted into carbon dioxide and water. This oxidation of glucose helps in the production of energy in usable amount which is used by the cell for their metabolic processes.

First, the glucose is partially oxidized to pyruvic acid then pyruvic acid is converted into acetyl Co-A which is used in the citric acid cycle to generate NADH, FADH₂, and ATP. Then the NADH, FADH₂ is used to provide electrons that helps in the generation of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.

This ATP molecule has a high energy phosphate bond from which energy can be extracted in usable amounts. Therefore the correct answer is a. energy can be extracted in usable amounts.
