Allowing livestock to overgraze a region leads to desertification of land

Explanation:

Desertification is the conversion of a once fertile vegetative land to a barren land due to environmental changes. Many human activities and practices are often the cause of desertification of fertile lands.

Overgrazing plays a major role in desertification of lands. When huge number of farm animals is made to graze over vast lands, the entire vegetative cover will be lost.

When there is less protective vegetative cover, then the land becomes dry and barren allowing very less infiltration of ground water which reduces moisture content of the soil. This finally results in land becoming dry and deserted and the precipitation also becomes less. All these conditions recycle and reduce the vegetative growth.  

Unsustainable agricultural practices like growing heavily or intensive farming or removing plants in a region also causes desertification, but land use by overgrazing contributes more to desertification.

Which statement is true about lethal alleles?
timama [110]
They can be maintained in a gene pool if they are expressed before 
<span>reproductive age.</span>


For example:
Sickle cell anemia is caused by an abnormal hemoglobin in red blood cells. hemoglobin is the red pigment found in red blood cells for carrying oxygen.The abnormality arises from a genetic mutation in the DNA gene that codes for the  beta chain of the protein called globin of which hemoglobin is made of.In the beta chain, the sixth amino acid called glutamine is replaced by another one called valine.This one change in the amino acids cause the hemoglobin protein  to behave abnormally, causing  red blood cells to lose their normal spherical shape and become bent like a sickle, hence the name "sickle cell" anemia

Compare and contrast sexual and asexual reporduction
makvit [3.9K]

Difference:

The biological process of sexual reproduction requires the input of genetic material from many people. When a flower self-pollinates, for example, the term "individual" might refer to gamete cells developing as a single physical or even genetic organism. I don't want to substitute the word "cell" for "person," either, as that would eliminate instances of acellular biologic entities that reproduce, like viruses. When a piece of a chromosome from one bacterium is injected into another, it recombines and reproduces there, with or without sporulation, which is one instance of what I consider sexual reproduction but which not all viewers would. My notion just requires some genetic material, even in the form of an episome, not gametes. Asexual phases are included in nearly all forms of reproduction, but I regard all of them to be a part of sexual reproduction when they take place throughout a life cycle that also contains an obligatory sexual phase. Brewer's yeast serves as an illustration of the distinction I make because either the diploid or haploid stage, which could be classified as a gametophyte or sporophyte, can be maintained through an infinite number of mitoses. As a result, I consider vegetative propagation to be asexual reproduction.

Now that you have the difference compare the similarties.
