select the submit answer button. a. Sexual reproduction produces a greater variation in offspring than asexual.
b. Sexual reproduction produces identical offspring compared to the parents.
c. Sexual reproduction requires less energy than asexual reproduction.
d. Sexual reproduction is less risky to the parents than asexual reproduction.
e. Sexual reproduction always produces more offspring than asexual reproduction.
The correct answer is A. Sexual reproduction produces a greater variation in offspring.
Explanation:
B is wrong because in sexual reproduction there are two organisms involved who combine their DNA, therefore resulting in non-identical offsprings.
C is wrong because sexual reproduction requires the two organisms involved to exchange DNA's whereas asexual reproduction involves only one organism which only copies it's own DNA for reproduction.
D is wrong because there are no risks as genetic defects and no need to seek a mate or it is easier than sexual reproduction which results in lower risks for the parents in asexual reproduction.
E is wrong because asexual production is a more efficient procedure and results in a faster growing population because there is no need to search a mate.
The answer is A because in sexual reproduction, two different DNA's from both parents get combined resulting in more variation in offspring. In asexual reproduction, there is only one set of DNA which does not allow the gene's to mix, causing a less diverse offspring.
Evolution genetics is a field of science, which includes the study of genetic variations that lead to evolutionary changes in organisms
As some bacteria had changed their DNA that led to the development of antibiotic resistance in them
Due to antibiotic resistance, certain bacteria, in which changes in DNA take place, become resistant against some type of antibiotics and those antibiotics are no longer effective to prevent or kill them
Hence, the right answer is option 1 B and 2 C " evolution Genetics & less bacteria becoming resistant to the specific antibiotics"
What best explains whether bromine or neon is more likely to form a covalent bond? <span>Bromine forms covalent bonds because it has seven valence electrons, but neon has eight valence electrons and already fulfills the octet rule.
