Answer:

Reproduction sexual results in offspring with greater genetic wariation

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction gives greater variability because it allows the offspring to inherit chromosomes and genes from both parents producing random combinations of characters. In meiosis half of chromosomes corresponds to the mother and half to the father; therefore, half of the chromosomes are paternal and half are maternal. Another source of variation by chromosomal combination in meiosis is crossing-over where the combination occurs between the maternal and paternal chromosomes, but is performed within each pair of homologues, multiplying the types of gametes that are formed.

On the other hand, mitosis or asexual reproduction produces identical organisms, so the genetic variation is very low.

Name 3 reasons why recycling is bad
morpeh [17]
1. Air pollution would still be an issue since fossil fuel trucks that produce exhaust have to go pick up recyclable items and bring them back. Also, the recycling process itself produces a lot of pollutants from inside the factory. 

2. Contamination is also a huge obstacle in the recycling industry. Sometimes there are errors with sorting through recyclable stuff and let's say, for example, a spray can gets mixed in with other types of recyclables; it can contaminate the new products.

3. Most plastics can not be recycled. There are about seven types of plastic that we find and encounter on a day to day life, but only two of those plastics are recyclable. What isn't recyclable will be collected, processed, sorted and then thrown into a landfill. 

Hope this helps.
