Non-random mating is assortative mating. It is a pattern and form of sexual selection in which individuals with similar phenotypes mate with one another more frequently than would be expected under a random mating pattern. non-random mating can act as an ancillary process for natural selection to cause evolution to occur. It’s also bad for evolution because any departure from random mating upsets the equilibrium distribution of genotypes in a population. Recombination is a process by which pieces of DNA are broken and recombined to produce new combinations of alleles. recombination is important to somatic cells in eukaryotes because it can be used to help repair broken DNA. recombination by itself does not cause evolution to occur. Rather, it is a contributing mechanism that works with natural selection by creating combinations of genes that nature selects for or against. Non-random mating affects the evolution more than recombination
An organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur. It has a double membrane, the inner layer being folded inward to form layers (cristae).

Explanation:
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The brother has different alleles for the blood type gene than his sister does. Blood type is inherited from parents like many other traits that can be displayed on a punnet square. Depending on what the parents blood type alleles were, the brother and sister could have different blood types.
A different number of chromosomes doesn't lead to different blood types, so D is wrong. And A is incorrect because the number genes also does not affect blood type. And I think the blood type genes are on the same chromosome, so B is wrong. C is correct because blood type is inherited by alleles, and different alleles can cause different traits, such as blood types.
Some objects in space are created from clouds of gas and dust. A star forms when the mass of the dust cloud is large and has enough hydrogen to start creating a protostar and sustain the nuclear fusion reaction within the core of the protostar. If the dust cloud is not dense enough, then the star formation does not take place, rather a nebula is formed, example the Horse-head nebula. So the answer is (B) A star will not form.
