Biology
1 answer:
jok3333 [9.3K]3 years ago
5 0
Crossing over happens in prophase I when the homologous chromosomes are sy naps ed. The two inner chromoatids exchanges sections with each other. This means that after the exchange the inner two chromatids have new combinations of alleles than their parents had. The two outer chromatids still have the parental combinations.So there are more kinds of chromatids ready to go into the gametes than there were before. This is an increase in variation.

What is meant my urbanization and industrialization? How they degrade the environment ​
Whitepunk [10]
Urbanization is defined as “the process of making an area more urban” or an increase in the amount of people living in towns or cities. Industrialization is defined as “the development of industries in a country or region on a wide scale” meaning a strong military with modern weapons, factories to create things, modern cars and boats etc. Urbanization and industrialization put a strain on the environment because of carbon gases emitted, effectively warming the earth up, destruction of trees which lowers our overall oxygen available, destruction of animal homes which will kill animals or cause unwanted interactions between humans and animals, and the pollution of natural resources such as local ponds, streams or the ocean.

How might the increase of volcanic eruptions affect Earth?
vodka [1.7K]
If enough ejecta (mainly ash) is sent into the upper atmosphere, the dust particles will block solar energy causing a decrease in temperature. This has happened in the past. Look for the year without summer caused by a volcanic eruption.
