Select all that apply. The principal advantages of asexual reproduction are _____.
hichkok12 [17]
The correct answers are A and C.
When an individual is reproducing asexually, it means that there is no fusing of two parent cells and meiosis, but that the offspring is produced out of the cells of one parent. This means that the organism is not '' losing time'' by trying to find a suitable mate, which enables the populations to grow at a rapid rate.
However, the offspring are genetically identical to the parent, which means that there is very little genetic variation in the population which can lead to accumulation of harmful mutations and unresponsiveness to changes in the environment.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The outermost shell of a terrestrial planet is referred to as "crust." The Earth's crust is separated into two types: continental crust, which is older and thicker, and oceanic crust, which is younger and denser. Plate tectonics influences the dynamic geology of the Earth's crust. The outermost shell of a terrestrial planet is referred to as "crust."

The mantle is the layer immediately beneath the sima. With a thickness of 1800 miles, it is the Earth's thickest layer. The mantle is made up of extremely hot and thick rock. Under the weight of a huge load, this layer of granite even flows like asphalt. The flow is caused by large temperature differences between the mantle's bottom and top. The movement of the Earth's plates is due to the movement of the mantle! The mantle's temperature ranges from 1600 degrees Fahrenheit near the top to about 4000 degrees Fahrenheit near the bottom!
