if two eukaryotes participate in lateral gene transfer what will this do to the overall genetic variation of species

2 answers:

7 0

The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

A)nothing, the genetic variation will stay the same
B)the genetic variation will decrease
C)the genetic variation will increase
<span>D)this type of gene transfer is impossible in eukaryotes
</span>
I believe the correct answer is option C. If two eukaryotes participate in lateral gene transfer, then the genetic variation will increase. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

How is gametogenesis different in females than in males?

MArishka [77]

First thing is Male gametes are called sperm and Female gametes are called eggs. So some physical differences are that the eggs are spherical in shape, much larger then sperm, and are immobile (they stay in the female reproductive organ during fertilization). Sperm are smaller, are in a cone shape, and have tails so the could move to the egg during fertilization.

What environmental worldview is seen by critics as focused on short-term economic benefits with little regard for long term harm

attashe74 [19]

I believe the answer is the global free-market approach.
It is because on continually increasing use of earth's natural capital, and it focuses on short term economic benefits with little regard for degradation and depletion of natural capital and resulting long-term harmful environmental, health, and social consequences. Environmental world views are the ways of thinking about how the world work and beliefs that people hold about their roles in the natural world, another factor is widespread lack of understanding of how earth's life-support system works, keeps us alive, and supports economies.

Between a Black father bear (genotype BB) and a Brown mother bear (genotype bb), they had several baby bears.Black fur allele (B

Karolina [17]

Answer:

100% or 1

Explanation:

This question involves a gene coding for fur color in bears. According to the question, black fur allele (B) is dominant over the brown fur allele (b). This means that a bear heterozygous for fur color (Bb) will be phenotypically black.

In this question, a black father bear (genotype BB) and a brown mother bear (genotype bb) were crossed, the baby bears will all have a genotype Bb (see punnet square in the attached image). Since all the offsprings of this cross have genotype Bb, this means that 100% will have black fur.

Why are many cells wired together in a typical photovoltaic panel? To decrease the movement of electrons. To stop the electrical

shusha [124]

The higher the number of cells getting wired together in a photo-voltaic cell, the higher its electricity or energy yield would be. In addition, the primary function of a PV panel is to convert light energy from the sun directly into electrical energy in a form of voltage that could be used by electricity-consuming devices.
