A Punnett square summarizes how the processes of meiosis and fertilization contribute to inheritance of different alleles of a gene. So one major advantage is it can help determine certain things about a child by looking at the dominant and recessive genes and gives a percent of how likely they are to get that thing for example a punnet square may show what color a child’s eye color is likely to be upon birth
The purpose of mitosis is cell regeneration, growth, and asexual reproduction,while the purpose of meiosis is the production of gametes for sexual reproduction. Mitosis is a single nuclear division that results in two nuclei that are usually partitioned into two new daughter cells. The nuclei resulting from a mitotic division are genetically identical to the original nucleus. They have the same number of sets of chromosomes, one set in the case of haploid cells and two sets in the case of diploid cells. In most plants and all animal species, it is typically diploid cells that undergo mitosis to form new diploid cells. In contrast, meiosis consists of two nuclear divisions resulting in four nuclei that are usually partitioned into four new haploid daughter cells. The nuclei resulting from meiosis are not genetically identical and they contain one chromosome set only. This is half the number of chromosome sets in the original cell, which is diploid.
D) a change in protein synthesis
Answer:
7
Explanation:
There are always half the chromosomes in sex cells.
