Answer:

Answer is D.Produce non-identical genetically different gametes and reduction of chromosomes,creating a haploid gamete.

Explanation:

Meiosis is essential for sexual reproduction.In humans diploid gamete-mother cells or germ line undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes.

The chromosomes pairs of each parent undergo crossing over during meiosis.so daughter cells i.e gametes have genetic variations.When gametes  fuse and form zygote ,its genetic make up is different from both parents.thus meiosis allows a species to bring variations in next generations.Benenficial variations help organisms to adapt to the changes in environment.

Why is the jaw of a dogfish underslung? what disadvantages does it have? ...?
Iteru [2.4K]

 First off, the jaw itself, is capable of projecting an impressive 30% of the total head length, which is over 10% more than the jaw protrusion of a lemon shark.  Also note the teeth of <span>Squalus acanthias </span>actually interlock to form an almost uniform cutting surface. Finally on either side of the jaw you have what is referred to as labial cartilage. These structures fold out as the dogfish projects its jaw, essentially causing the jaw to take on a tubular shape, which increases suction pressure as the shark opens its mouth.  As the jaws close these cartilages snap back into place in folds along the side of the jaw, which is why spiny dogfish, smooth dogs, nurse sharks, and other sharks that make use of this mechanism have such distinctive “cheeks.” The disadvantage it has is that it cannot open its mouth too much.
