Answer:

Crossing over is the phenomenon by which homologous chromosomes exchange DNA segments between them during the process of meiosis.

If crossing over did not occur, there will be no genetic variation among parents and offsprings.

If the process of meiosis did not occur, there will be lesser chances of genetic variations to occur. Each chromosome will be either from the father or the mother with no genetic diversity present in it. As a result,  genetic diversity will reduce.

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

A) Any butterfly allele that allowed milkweed toxin storage would be likely to persist because butterflies that had it were more likely to survive.

Explanation:

Butterflies are natural preys to birds. Over time, some butterflies evolved adaptive strategy such as developing an allele which enables storage of toxin from milkweed as a form of defense mechanism. This stored toxins repel birds from eating the butterflies having this allele giving rise to the survival of these butterflies overtime. Butterflies that had it are likely to be highly favored for survival against predatory birds, while those butterflies without this allele are likely to be heavily preyed upon by birds.

Which is a possible outcome of global warming?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

More frequent and severe weather
