Biology

Delvig [45]2 years ago

The range of evidence in firearms-related cases can be as small as a piece of a bullet fragment which has rifling marks or as large as hundreds of bullets and cartridge cases and numerous firearms. Even from small samples, information can be developed to indicate the type of firearm used and possibly identify the actual firearm that was used.

Other firearms evidence that could be found at a shooting scene includes shotshell wads and shot pellets; these can indicate the gauge of the shotgun. Wads and pellets can be gathered and preserved in the same manner as bullets and cartridge cases.

By examining wadding materials, the examiner may be able to determine

  • The gauge of the shotgun
  • The manufacturer or marketer
  • A range of possible shot sizes based on impressions in the shotshell wad
  • individual characteristics (in some cases)

Connect the importance between meiosis and the process of sexual reproduction. Is it possible to survive without your reproducti
Aleksandr [31]
It must be known that there is an interdependent relationship between meiosis and sexual reproduction. During sexual reproduction, meiosis generates a genetic variation in the offspring because it randomly shuffles genes across chromosomes and then randomly segregates half of those chromosomes into each gametes. These two gametes or sex cells then fuse randomly to form a new organism. One of the key factors in evolutionary fitness and biological diversity is genetic variation. This can be made possible through reproductive cells undergoing meiosis since such process has specialized sex cells split and multiple after copulation.

To answer the question if is it possible for a human to survive without a reproductive system, the answer is yes.

Reproductive organs of both men and women are vital to create a child. But it must be noted that both can live without them. There are situations that sometimes necessitates the removal of such organs especially if he or she is inflicted with cancer or other diseases.

You are maintaining a small population of fruit flies in the laboratory by transferring a small number of the flies to a new cul
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Cross the flies with the flies from another population

Explanation:

Inbreeding is the mating between the closely related individuals of a population. Inbreeding reduces the viability of the progeny over a generation since it increases homozygosity. When the flies of a small population interbred over generations, the increased homozygosity reduces the viability of the flies. To counteract it, one should mate these flies with the flies from another population. This would increase heterozygosity and thereby would increase the survival and fitness of the progeny.
