Answer:

Reduce genetic diversity

Explanation:

Genetic diversity is an extremely important factor when it comes to evolution. The more diversity and variation there is within a population, the more chances a species has of surviving.

In the case of inbreeding, organisms that are related are selected to mate. This has extremely negative effects on the species such as bad health and infertility issues. In addition, because they all share the same alleles, it results in a decrease in genetic diversity, augmenting the chances of the species to disappear.

This occurs because if, for example, there is an organism that possesses a capability to resist extreme weather conditions and another that does not have this trait, there are still chances to survive, whereas if they are all the same and none of them possess this capability, the probability of this species to go extinct is higher.

In mitosis, when do the sister chromatids align with centrosomes in the cells?
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The answer is probably B. Metaphase

Explanation:

In mitosis, the sister chromatids align in the "center" of the cell as the centrosomes are at the poles of the cell. They do this, moving on to the next phase Anaphase - where they will eventually split. Interphase isn't part of mitosis - it describes the period in which the cell is just growing and copying DNA.  If you textbook says it is, then thats ok, sometimes its included as part of it (even though technically its not).

The answer is C - Recombinant DNA. Why?

A transgene is a gene or genetic material that has been transferred naturally, or by any of a number of genetic engineering techniques from one organism to another. The introduction of a transgene (called "transgenesis") has the potential to change the phenotype of an organism.

How do plants get the nitrogen they need?
ololo11 [35]

Correct answer: D) From bacteria living in their roots

Nitrogen is an essential plant nutrients, but it is metabolically unavailable to higher plants and animals. It is available to some species of microorganism by biological nitrogen fixation in which nitrogen is converted to ammonia with the help of enzyme dinitrogenase.

The process of breaking apart the two atoms in a nitrogen molecule is called nitrogen fixation. Plant obtain the nitrogen they need from the soil which is already fixed by the bacteria and archae.

Example: <em>Azobacter</em><em>,</em> Nostac
