Answer:

To develop more favourable traits in offspring for survival.

I'm no bio expert but from my understanding, it's better to reproduce sexually to broaden the gene pool and allow for the offspring to develop better traits for survival.

for example if the parent is susceptible to a certain disease then asexual will cause the offspring to also be susceptible. however, through sexual reproduction with a parent who is immune, the offspring could be immune as well.

Hope that helps

Outline the events of protein synthesis (transcription and translation)
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The events of protein synthesis are simple- First of all, protein synthesis is the process for which cells make proteins. Protein synthesis occurs in only two stages, transcription and translation.

Transcription-

Transcription is the transfer of genetic instructions in DNA and mRNA in the nucleus. It includes three steps: initiation, elongation, and termination.

Translation-

Translation occurs at the ribosome, which consists of rRNA and proteins. During translation, the genetic code in mRNA is read and is used to make protein.

Explanation:

The two processes (transcription and translation ) are pretty much summed up by the 'central dogma of molecular biology' which goes- DNA → RNA → Protein.

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed. If this is true, why is there less
