Linda owns an orchard of orange trees, and she is worried because she notices that many of her orange trees are unhealthy. They

appear to have very little resistance to attack by a certain fungus that is destroying their leaves. She consults with some biologist friends, and they tell her that her orchard is threatened by low genetic diversity. How could she improve the ability of her orchard to resist disease in the future?

Answer:

If there is low genetic diversity, she needs to introduce something into the system to increase the variation. I would suggest breeding the orange trees with other new orange trees to change the allele frequencies, which is called gene flow.

Likely the fungi are attacking them somewhere that they have decreased resistance, and if more alleles were introduced, there would probably be evolution towards a genotype that promotes defense against these fungi.

Which important biochemical process receives a supply of NAD+ ions from the fermentation process during anaerobic respiration?
sammy [17]

Answer:

Glycolysis.

Explanation:

Glycolysis is a universal process that provides energy in the form of ATP molecules. It requires two molecules of NAD+, which are reduced to NADH during glycolysis. Thus, regeneration of NAD+ is necessary as if NAD+ is absent, glycolysis cannot be able to continue.

During anaerobic respiration (respiration in the absence of oxygen), fermentation takes place to regenerate NAD+ used in the process of glycolysis.

Chromosomes exchange genetic material in step 3.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The meiosis is the type of cell division that takes place for gametogenesis. The meiosis has two phases - meiosis I and meiosis II.

The meiosis I has the events like crossing over and independent assortment which leads to the mixing of genes between homologous chromosome pairs and separation of homologous chromosome pairs. So the two cells that are produced from the meiosis I are genetically different. The step 3 shows the crossing over of prophase 1 of meiosis I. So, it shows the genetic difference between the offsprings and leads to genetic variation.
