Answer:
The correct answer is A. Sexual reproduction produces a greater variation in offspring.
Explanation:
- B is wrong because in sexual reproduction there are two organisms involved who combine their DNA, therefore resulting in non-identical offsprings.
- C is wrong because sexual reproduction requires the two organisms involved to exchange DNA's whereas asexual reproduction involves only one organism which only copies it's own DNA for reproduction.
- D is wrong because there are no risks as genetic defects and no need to seek a mate or it is easier than sexual reproduction which results in lower risks for the parents in asexual reproduction.
- E is wrong because asexual production is a more efficient procedure and results in a faster growing population because there is no need to search a mate.
- The answer is A because in sexual reproduction, two different DNA's from both parents get combined resulting in more variation in offspring. In asexual reproduction, there is only one set of DNA which does not allow the gene's to mix, causing a less diverse offspring.
The fusion of two parents' genetic material is understood as sexual reproduction while asexual reproduction yields genetically similar offspring to the same parent.
<u>Asexual Reproduction:</u>
This way all the prokaryotes and other eukaryotes produce offspring. There are a variety of different asexual reproductive practices. These comprises of binary, fragmentation, and budding fission.
- The binary fission appears when a parent cell wants to split into 2 separate daughter cells of the same diameter. For an instance, protozoa reproduces in the same way.
- Fragmentation happens when a parent entity divides into small parts or fragments, and each segment grows into a recent organism. Starfish, that way replicate.
- Budding happens when a parent cell develops a bud close to a bubble. When growing and developing, the bud remains connected to the parent cell. This get detached from the parent cell when the bud is completely grown, and becomes a new entity. It is common in hydra and yeast.
<u>Sexual Reproduction:</u>
- A reproductive process which comprises haploid female gamete fusion, i.e. egg cell and haploid male gamete i.e. sperm cell.
- That implies they only include half the number of chromosomes contained in other species cells. A form of cell division named meiosis creates gametes.
- These gametes are fused at fertilization which results in the production of a diploid zygote having the chromosome double of gametes.
Answer:
(D). lungs
Explanation:
Cladograms are diagrams that show cladistic relationship between organisms of different species on the basis of their characteristics. The cladograms may include characteristics to make two organisms different from each other.
In given cladogram, characteristic that separates bony fish from amphibians is 'lungs', as lungs are absent in bony fishes, while present in amphibians.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
Answer:
indeterminate
Explanation:
The answer would be <u>an indeterminate number of generations.</u>
The blue trait is a heterozygous trait. In other words, the blue allele does not really exist. Two different alleles team up to produce the trait, whereas, only two the same allelic conditions can produce a true-breeding flock.
<em>Hence, it will take an indeterminate number of generations to produce a true-breeding flock of the Blue Andalusions.</em>
