Answer:

The mutations in a genome similar to printing a book.

Explanation:

Every letter in a book resembles the mutations in the genome. errors that appear in one copy can be copied to all other copies of the book. Like printing errors, mutations always negatively affect the final product. Just as a single book is printed at a time, a single mutation is read at a time. Though mutations are not always negative and can help in the survival of the species when selection pressures change.

Doss [256]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction happens when there is the involvement of two parents to give rise to the offsprings.
For the production of offsprings, each of the parents produces a haploid gamete and it is by the fusion of these two haploid gametes that a diploid organism is produced.
In the given situation, there are 19 chromosomes present in the haploid gametes this means that a diploid individual will have 2X19 = 38 chromosomes.
Now the underground stem cells are not gametes but somatic cells and the somatic cells are diploid and hence, they will have 38 chromosomes.
