Answer:
Inbreeding and greater chance of passing deletereous mutations through generations
Explanation:
There are several reasons why small populations are more prone to genetic diseases. One of them is that in small populations there tends to be more inbreeding
, that is breeding between individuals are closely related. Inbreeding increase the chances of offspring being affected by deletereus homozygous genotypes.
On the other hand, the acquisition of a deleterious mutation in a small population is more likely to be spread in that small population than in a large population.
Alyssa's additional observation would be cell Y having a larger vacuole than cell X. The third option is the correct one.
<h3>Plant cell vs animal cell</h3>
From the observations, both cells are eukaryotic. This is because:
- cell X has lysosomes which are only found in eukaryotic cells
- cell Y has a nucleus which also peculiar to eukaryotic cells only
Lysosome houses digestive enzymes and is found mostly in animal cells. Only a few plant cells have lysosomes.
Thus, the lack of a lysosome means that cell Y is a plant cell while the presence means that cell X is an animal cell.
Generally, plant cells have larger vacuoles than animal cells.
