Answer:
Both contain genetic material, in the form of DNA and/or RNA. Both of them can replicate, that is, produce more organisms similar to themselves. ... They require a host cell to carry out life processes, such as replication and carrying out genetic instructions, etc. Bacteria are relatively bigger in size than viruses.
<span>Only one sperm normally fuses
with an egg because if more than one sperm fuses, through a process
called polyspermy, development of the zygote usually stops.
</span>
<span>Fertilization of one egg by
two sperm is possible, but the resulting zygote is almost never viable
because such a zygote would have three sets of chromosomes instead of
the normal two. This condition, called triploidy, is usually
incompatible with life. Those rare triploid infants that do survive to
term have severe and multiple birth defects and rarely live more than a
few days. </span>
Answer:
(three) crossing over, mutations caused during crossing over, and independent assortment.
Explanation:
Because of recombination and independent assortment in meiosis, each gamete contains a different set of DNA. This produces a unique combination of genes in the resulting zygote. Recombination or crossing over occurs during prophase I.
