How is cross-fertilization advantageous over asexual reproduction?

Biology
1 answer:
Aneli [31]3 years ago
7 0
Cross-fertilization is the binding of female and male gametes or the sex cells from two different individuals given they are of the same species. On the other hand, asexual reproduction involves the formation of offspring only from a single individual where a cell only makes a copy of itself. It is advantageous since it would introduce diversity to a species which would help it to be more resistant to any factors that could damage it like diseases. <span />

A state is looking to reduce the cost of transportation, which uses 7.10×10^14 BTUs per year. Currently the cost of 10^6BTUs is
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

$ 284 million dollars

Explanation:

If the energy usage of all transportation is 7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year, if their efficiency is to increase by 20%, The new energy usage will be (1 + 20/100)7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year = (1.02)7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year = 7.242 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year.

The energy saved is thus the difference 7.242 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year - 7.10 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year = 0.142 × 10¹⁴ BTU per year.

Since 10⁶ BTU costs $ 20.00, then,

0.142 × 10¹⁴ BTU costs 0.142 × 10¹⁴ BTU × $ 20.00/10⁶ BTU = $ 2.84 × 10⁸ per year = $ 284 million dollars

So the state saves $ 284 million dollars in one year
