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.

Mucus would most likely accumulate in the respiratory tract as a result of ciliary destruction.

Pertussis (whooping cough) is a highly contagious respiratory tract infection. A severe hacking cough is followed by the a high-pitched breath intake that sounds like "whoop" in many people. Before the vaccine, whooping cough was thought to be a childhood disease. Whooping cough now primarily affects children who have not received the full course of vaccinations, as well as teenagers and adults whose immunity has waned.

Deaths from whooping cough are uncommon, but most commonly occur in infants. That is why it is critical for pregnant women and others who will have close contact with an infant to be immunized against whooping cough. The best way to avoid pertussis is to get vaccinated. Check that you and your loved ones have received their pertussis vaccines.

Different ratios occur in crosses with single gene pairs or two gene pairs. What types of ratios are likely to occur in crosses
likoan [24]

Answer:

Genotype ratio: 1, 1:1, 1:2:1

Phenotype ratio: 1, 3:1

Explanation:

Single gene pair cross is also known as monohybrid cross. This means that only one gene usually with two alleles is observed and it express one trait.

For example, if we name the gene for a certain trait with A, the possible genotypes are AA (dominant homozygous), aa (recessive homozygous) and Aa (heterozygous). Possible crosses are:

P: AA  x  AA

F1 : all of them are AA

The same is with aa x aa (all of the offspring are with aa genotype)

P: AA  x  Aa

F1: AA Aa AA Aa  (genotype ratio 1:1) (phenotype ratio 3:1)

The same genotype ratio is  in aa x Aa (offspring will have aa Aa aa Aa-(genotype ratio 1:1) (phenotype ratio 1:1)

P: Aa x Aa

F1: AA Aa Aa aa (genotype ratio 1:2:1) (phenotype ratio 3:1)

P: AA x aa

F1: Aa Aa Aa Aa (1)
