Answer:

Inbreeding

Explanation:

The offspring from mating of individuals in a close group can cause inbreeding. The genetic disorders present in both mates will pass along the offspring without the possibility of correction, causing genetic abnormality.

The inbreeding can occur naturally in a way to guarantee the propagation of the offspring. The result of this mating is the increasing of homozygous, which can result in lack of variancy. By the other hand, it can enhance a similar characteristic as well as a genetic problem.

For example, in a crop of clones organisms a disease which has affected one crop can spread more easily through the community of clones than non-clones crops of the same specie.

What were some strategies companies uses against unions?
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

All of the above.

Explanation:

The owners of the companies employed their own strategies. Sometimes if the company had enough supplies, they would <u>lockout</u> the workers. If they wanted to cut pay, they would tell the workers not to show up to work until they agreed to the cut. Often new employees were forced to sign contracts stating they would not join a union. Companies used many strategies to counter a strike. They would try to <u>hire</u> others, people called <u>scabs</u>, who would agree to work during a strike. The strikers would often use violence against these scabs.
