How does mutation, random fertilization, and crossing over contribute to genetic variation?

1 answer:

7 0

Mutation are two types somatic and germ cell mutation...as there is mutation in germ cell it will alter the normal behavior and produce variation !

random fertilization also causes variation as different setup of genes meets with another different...so chances of variation increases !

and third crossing over is in meiosis when chiasmata forms....so in this two homologous chromosome attach to each other and on separation ... some part exchange so leads to variation !

A 2-year-old swallowed watch batteries. Following ingestion, kidney function was impaired, and the heart began to fail. Which of

kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Coagulative necrosis

Explanation:

When cell death occurs due to ischemia or infarction then this is termed as Coagulative necrosis.
During this type of necrosis, cell death occurs in a localized area due to lack of oxygen and other nutrients.
When a two year old swallows watch batteries then these batteries becomes trapped in the digestive system and inside the digestive tract , the positive and negative terminals of the battery gets bridged by the mucosa leading to the production of the electrical current and increase in the pH of the mucosa.
All these condition leads to coagulative necrosis due to which the kidney gets affected and heart failure occurs .
