Answer:

i think less is more

Explanation:

let me explain so i think less would be better because then you wound have as many people that are homeless or refugees we all wish refugees could find safe homes but for all of them that just isn't possible.Then again i don't think that you should resort to genocide when trying to maintain a smaller population.Though one could argue the opposite.

Describe the relationship between DNA,<br> chromosomes, and genes,
damaskus [11]

Explanation:

A chromosome is a structure that is made of a chemical known as deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA as well as protein. Chromosomes are found in the nucleus of cells. Chromosomes contain many genes.

A gene is a molecular unit of heredity. Each gene codes for a polypeptide, which becomes a protein that performs a function in a living thing. The DNA molecules are very long and in order to fit inside the nucleus of a cell, they are highly coiled and condensed. During sexual reproduction, one haploid set of chromosomes is given to the offspring from each parent, forming a diploid amount of chromosomes in the offspring.

Since chromosomes contain all of our genes, an organism that reproduces sexually gets a combination of genes from both parents. Genes that are expressed produce an organism's phenotype.

Distinguish between the geosphere and hydrosphere​
vodka [1.7K]
The geosphere is all of the rock, land and minerals on Earth, and you can remember this because 'geo' means 'ground. ' The hydrosphere is all of the water on Earth, which makes sense since 'hydro' means 'water. 'Bio' means 'life,' so all of the living organisms on Earth make up the biosphere.
