Answer:

Crossing over is the process by which genetic material is exchanged by non-sister chromatids during meiosis.

Crossing over results in a new combination of genetic information for the cell for a specific trait.

Crossing over ensures that organisms are not identical from generation to generation.

Genetic recombination allows for a variation in genetic material that is passed through the generations.

Crossing over produces modern combinations of alleles. Not unused alleles but unused combinations which can result in modern phenotypes or expanded assortment of phenotypes. This way the there's expanded genotype/phenotype variety but the genuine qualities are still the same ones.

Lilit [14]

George is lifting weights. He starts by doing biceps curls which involves flexing his elbows.  His elbow is able to bend because the humero-ulnar joint is a hinge joint.  Sam is doing leg presses, extending his knees as he pushes against the weights. Meanwhile, Jane is doing "lat pulls" by pulling downward on a weighted bar. This movement involves adduction of her arms.  Her shoulder joint is a  ball-and-socket joint, allowing a wide range of movements.

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Parasitic

Explanation:

The species that is described is a parasitic species. The reason why it will fall into this category is that its key feature is that it is entirely dependent on other organisms for its food. This type of species are not able to produce food for themselves, nor are able to get it from the environment, which is way they have evolved in a manner to use the other organisms. They find a host organisms, attach to it, and then they are extracting the nutrients out of that organism, thus classical parasitism. The extraction of the nutrients can be so severe that the parasitic species can actually kill systemically its host.

In what way can open-mindedness interfere with scientific progress
umka2103 [35]
<span>Open-mindedness does interfere with scientific progress as it can lead to acceptance of untested ideas. Open-mindedness can lead to actually accepting results that are not true. This is not a great angle for people involved with scientific experiments. Open-mindedness should be limited to the fact that the results can lead to negative answers. People that can accept this theory will ultimately succeed in their strive for creating something new. There is nothing wrong in discarding the results that does not seem to fit the bill.

Vsevolod [243]
In the process of the nitrogen cycle. <span>               
The nitrogen cycle is a biogeochemical succession process of nitrogen that involves: fixation, ammonification, nitrification, and denitrification. Like any other biogeochemical cycles. This process undergoes and affects the biological, geometrical and chemical aspects in the ecosystem and the abiotic and biotic community. Hence, the nitrogen cycle leads the abiotic component –nitrogen- to contribute to the biotic community, decomposition and primal production. Further, it becomes an essential part of the environment because some life components are contains it, similarly, amino acids, nucleic acids in RNA and DNA.  </span>
