Answer:

Analogous structures

Explanation:

These structures are similar but not derived from the common ancestor like homologous structures. Analogous structures are formed as a result of convergent evolution-type of evolution in which organisms develop on similar way but independently. An example of analogous structures are wings. Birds, insects and bats all have wings, with the same purpose (flight) but they evolved in their own way.

xxTIMURxx [149]

In <u>asexual </u>reproduction, genetically identical offspring are produced, while in <u>sexual </u>reproduction, offspring are genetically different from each other.

Sexual reproduction is a sort of reproduction that involves a complex existence cycle wherein a gamete (inclusive of a sperm or egg mobile) with an unmarried set of chromosomes (haploid) combines with another to provide a zygote that develops into an organism composed of cells with two sets of chromosomes (diploid).

Sexual reproduction is the maximum common existence cycle in multicellular eukaryotes, which includes animals, fungi, and plants.

Asexual reproduction is a sort of reproduction that doesn't involve the fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes. The offspring that get up by asexual reproduction from both unicellular and multicellular organisms inherit the whole set of genes in their single parent. Asexual reproduction is the number one shape of reproduction for single-celled organisms including archaea and bacteria.

lozanna [386]
Because if we're simultaneously moving/manipulating two different variables it can be very hard to determine why one variable is changing and why the other is changing. While this can be done with more complicated experimental designs, it usually is the case that scientists will only manipulate one variable and not two different ones.
