Most organisms are Diploid, and as a result, they will have received 2 copies of the chromosomes, or sets of chromosomes, from both their parents. This they will have 2 sets of Genes that will perform almost exact same process, except with different phenotypes.
These chromosomes need to be homologous, in order for new alleles and other genetic combinations to be made.
The smoke increases effectively increasing the planetary albedo, forcing is less however and tends to be insensitive to the solar geometry
Answer:
Decrease in genetic diversity reduces the chance of variation in the offspring.
Explanation:
If there is no variation, there will be no evolution. So, if there is a change in the environment (like an outbreak of a disease) that affects one of the organisms, it is likely to affect all of them and destroy the whole population. This would lead to extinction.
Answer:
A. The rice genes didn't make the right type of vitamin A.
Explanation:
Regular white rice does not have the gene to produce beta carotene. The human body converts the beta carotene into vitamin A.
To increase the nutritional value of rice, the gene for beta carotene from daffodil flowers was inserted into the cells of endosperm of rice.
This allowed these cells of the genetically engineered rice varieties to produce beta carotene. Production of beta carotene imparted golden color to the rice grain and hence, the name.
