9 Why doesn't sexual reproduction produce identical offspring?

Aloiza [94]

Answer/Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is a a combination of chromosomes from each mate. Since each mate has different pairs, when combined they produce a completely different product.

This product has half of the characteristics from both sides.

Below is an example of how this works. The bold cells are from one mate and the other is from the other.

X ---> >< <--- X

As shown, the cells broke in half and combined with the other half forming a cell of 50/50. With this process it never created an identical offspring but different ones each time since different parts of the cell combines in different ways but still remains half of one and half of the other.

The _____ started as a neutral stimulus that, after repeated pairing with an unconditioned stimulus, became associated with it a

Alika [10]

The correct answer is conditioned stimulus.

The most famous explanation of a conditioned stimulus is from Ivan Pavlov's classical conditioning study. In his study a bell was repeatedly rang (neutral stimulus) before dogs were presented with food (unconditioned stimulus) that made them salivate in response (unconditional response). After repeated pairing of the neutral stimulus with the unconditioned stimulus, the sound of the bell alone elicited a response of salivation in dogs. In this this instance, the conditioned stimulus is the sound of the bell.
