Answer:
Combined parenting leads to faster reproduction
Explanation:
Genetic diversity or variations in the physical appearance of organisms is caused by genetic or environmental factors. Reproduction brings about variation through gamete formation, fertilization and mutations.
During prophase 1 of meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair to form bivalents. The crossing over at the chiasmata results in new gene combination and variations.
Fertilization permits parental genes to be brought together. This causes variations in members of the same family.
Mutation is the spontaneous change in genetic make-up. These changes may be inherited by offspring bringing variations. However, combining parenting does not increase genetic diversity.
Answer:
To maintain this balance, the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Principle states that a population should meet five main assumptions. There should be random mating, large population size, no mutation, no selection on the gene in question, and no gene flow in or out of the population.

Answer:
The Galapagos cormorant has vestigial wings that don't help it to fly or swim, though the birds still dry them off in the sun after they get wet, just as if they would if they still could use them to fly. This species diverged into a flightless bird about 2 million years ago.
Explanation:
Answer:
When elements and compounds that are dissolved in water leave a solution, crystallization occurs. Minerals form in this way underground & in bodies of water.
Explanation: so either underground or water
