Answer:
Explanation:
1. a. Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle in which a typical cell spends most of its life. During interphase, the cell copies its DNA in preparation for mitosis.
b. The third phase is anaphase. This phase only takes about 0.8 percent of the cell cycle to complete, which is the shortest time required out of all the phases. During anaphase the sister chromatids, or the two identical parts of a chromosome, are pulled apart to opposite ends of the cell by the spindle fibers.
2. Mitosis is important for three main reasons: development and growth cell replacement and asexual reproduction.
- Development and growth. After meiosis has produced a gamete, and this has fused with another gamete to form an embryo, the embryo grows using mitosis. ...
- Cell replacement. ...
- Asexual reproduction.
a behavioral response requires coordination and communication between different parts of the body.
All of the above-mentioned facts are the risks that pests pose to the consumers. Pests are unwanted insects, which may infect food, as they are laden with pathogenic micro-organisms, they eat away the stored food, as a source of nourishment, and are difficult to manage. Pesticides are used to kill the, and they are chemicals, which may also pose serious threats, if consumed in large quantities.
Answer:
The correct answer is A. Sexual reproduction produces a greater variation in offspring.
Explanation:
- B is wrong because in sexual reproduction there are two organisms involved who combine their DNA, therefore resulting in non-identical offsprings.
- C is wrong because sexual reproduction requires the two organisms involved to exchange DNA's whereas asexual reproduction involves only one organism which only copies it's own DNA for reproduction.
- D is wrong because there are no risks as genetic defects and no need to seek a mate or it is easier than sexual reproduction which results in lower risks for the parents in asexual reproduction.
- E is wrong because asexual production is a more efficient procedure and results in a faster growing population because there is no need to search a mate.
- The answer is A because in sexual reproduction, two different DNA's from both parents get combined resulting in more variation in offspring. In asexual reproduction, there is only one set of DNA which does not allow the gene's to mix, causing a less diverse offspring.
