The powerhouse of the cell: That is a term used to describe the MITOCHONDRIA, because its main function it to produce energy for cellular activities.

Mitochondria is the host of cellular respiration. This is where the Mitochondria take in glucose and oxygen to produce energy and is distributed all throughout the body as energy-rich molecules of ATP.

How does diploidy help to preserve genetic variation? see concept 23.4 (page 498)?
mario62 [17]
Monoploid organisms reproduce asexually since they need to transmit all of their genetic material to their offspring. Diploid organisms, have 2 copies of their genetic material that differ slightly in their genes. Since the progeny gets half of the DNA from each parent, we have that new combinations can emerge; for example, if the mother is AA for some allele and the father aa, their offspring will be Aa, a new genotype. This might have different implications (for example, the recessive gene for thalassemia also provides resistance to malaria). Finally, during meiosis, there is also an event called crossover that increases the genetic variation of the offspring.

What would most likely increase the genetic variation in a population of<br> organisms?
kati45 [8]
Gene duplication, mutation, or other processes can produce new genes and alleles and increase genetic variation. New genetic variation can be created within generations in a population, so a population with rapid reproduction rates will probably have high genetic variation.
