Why might asexual reproduction typically result in local colonization, while the products of sexual reproduction are typically d

ispersed?a. The variation resulting from meiosis and the union of gametes means some individuals will have a chance of colonizing diverse distant environments successfully. b. Asexual reproduction is only a "last ditch" alternative for plants when sexual reproduction fails. c. Sexual reproduction is only a "last ditch" alternative by which plants can "escape" the condition of being poorly adapted to the local environment. d. Vegetative propagation is more efficient than sexual reproduction when the current generation is well-adapted to the local environment.

Answer:

A.  

Explanation:

Asexual reproduction involves binary or multiple fission of cells or unicellular organisms while in the case of sexual reproduction there is no fission rather there is fusion of gametes. this fusion of gametes is the reason for diversity in the next generation.

A stage during sexual reproduction i.e. dispersal of gametes is the reason for distribution of organisms of similar species far apart while colonization in case of asexual reproduction is due to multiple divisions without dispersal of asexual gametes.

HELP SOS PLEASE !!!!! (ONLY CORRECT ANSWERS PLEASE)
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

1- Option A) describes an index fossil. Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations.

2- Option B) Continents were once joined and have since drifted apart.

Explanation:

1) Fossils are animal and vegetable rests found in different strata of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary layers deposit chronologically, so they are used to reflect history. They keep in each layer some of the forms of life that inhabited that area in the past. These fossils turn to be very useful while dating ages. The term Index fossils refer to those fossils that only existed in a given era or geological period during evolution.  

Index fossils must:    

• Be easily recognizable and distinguishable from all the other fossils

• Have lived in a relatively short geological period

• Present a wide geographic distribution

• Have lived in different sedimentary basins

• Appear in different types of rocks

• Be abundant

<em>A) Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations. </em>The species accomplish the requirements. It is easily recognizable, had a wide geographic distribution, was abundant, and lived for a short time.  

2) The tectonic plates theory states that there is a continual movement of the crust. It explains the movement of the different plates and their directions and interactions. The continental drift theory explains how these movements have been taking place since millions of years ago. When continents were together in a unique continent, many species used to inhabit it. When plates started to separate, they took some of these species that got apart by the ocean. Some species were already dead and fossilized, while some other organisms died during continental drift and got fossilized after the divergence. <em>The existence of the same fossils, placed in the same layers and of the same age, suggests that they used to inhabit the same area and died during the same time, meaning that continents were together when they got fossilized. </em>

Give an example (except for a plant responding to light) of an organism's response to a stimulus.
kolezko [41]

Answer:

plants For example, phototropism is the plant's response to stimulus, i.e. sunlight. A plant hormone “auxin” keeps the plant's direction towards the sun by activating the growth in a particular part of a stem. Similarly, gravitropism in plants responds to the stimulus, i.e. gravity
