<span>Nervous System - Nucleus - control (responding to certain neurotransmitters by allowing transcription factors to be formed) Respiratory System - Plasma Membrane (alveoli allow certain particles into the cells but want to keep contaminants out) Reproductive System - Nucleus - DNA (determines in part the genome and developmental process of the offspring) Digestive System - Mitochondria (want full redox reaction to occur in the organelle based on nutrients extracted from food) Integumentary System - Cytoskeleton (for support as well as in the construction of the basal lamina) Musculoskeletal System - Endomembrane System (think about the sarcoplasmic reticulum and the effect of increased surface area when calcium is released) Circulatory System - Passive Transport (through capillaries especially)</span>

Why must sexually reproducing organisms produce sex cells that have half the genetic information (DNA) as they have in all their
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Because offspring with two parents will share half of each parent's DNA.

Explanation:

Sex cells contain half of the genetic information of an organism's regular cells. This is because a sexually-produced organism will be unique; it will share genetic information with both of its parents, rather than be identical to its bearer (like an asexual organism would be). When a sex cell meets another sex cell, their DNA will meet as well and change/adapt to suit the organism. If a sex cell had all the information needed to create an embyro, instead of half, which requires another cell's information to fill the DNA void.... well, it would just do it.
