Biology

gladu [14]2 years ago
3 0

Cleaving a flatworm into pieces would not kill the flatworm as each piece would turn into a new flatworm. The mechanism is known as fragmentation. In multicellular species, fragmentation refers to a kind of asexual reproduction in which a species gets cleaved into fragments.  

Each of these fragments forms into completely developed, mature individuals, which are similar to their parents. Fragmentation is also called splitting, it is a mode of reproduction witnessed in various species like molds, filamentous cyanobacteria, lichens, various plants, and animals like flatworms, sponges, sea stars, and some annelids.

Answer:

DNA can be described as the molecules which carries the genetic code for every individual. The DNA is made up of nucleotide bases which join the two strands of DNA. The sugar and phosphate form the backbone of the DNA.

Genes are the hereditary molecules which are made up of DNA. The alleles of a gene represent which traits will be carried by an organism.

Chromosomes are made up of genes. During reproduction, crossing over of DNA occurs and alleles of the genes assort independently due to which variations occur.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

A)Fixation. Nitrogen in its gaseous form (N2) can't be used by most living things

B) it can not be used because it most be converted or, ’fixed’  to a more useable form. To do this it goes through a process called fixation.fixation is the change in a gene pool from a situation where there exists at least two variants of a particular gene (allele) in a given population to a situation where only one of the alleles remains.

C) This form can be made more usable if it’s converted. It has to go through the process of fixation so the gene pool changes.
