Answer:
Part A: The process of sexual reproduction is important because by this process organisms with varied genetic characteristics can be formed. Crossing over and independent assortment allow individuals to be born which are not alike to another and their parents. As a result, genetic diversity is produced.
Part B:
The process 1 is meiosis. The process 3 is development by mitosis.
The reproductive organs form sperm and egg by the process of meiosis. During this process, the number of chromosomes is reduced so that the number of chromosomes of an individual can be maintained.
The zygote converts into an embryo in a process called germinal development. The zygote replicates by mitosis to form into an embryo.
Assuming a 10% trophic efficiency, the herbivore (primary consumer) will get 10% of the producer energy. Then, the second consumer that eat the herbivore will get 10% of the primary consumer energy, so it is 10%*10%= 1% of the primary producers.
Then, the t<span>ertiary consumer should get 0.1% of the primary producers' energy.</span>
Answer;
Ribosomes;
Explanation;
Ribosomes are organelles that are found inside a cell attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum or freely suspended in the cytoplasm.
The are responsible for the process of translation which synthesis proteins in the cell.
Therefore; a pesticide that kills an insect by interfering with
the production of proteins in the insect would
most directly affect the activity of ribosomes.
I just looked it up, it's carbon!
