In animals and plants, there are two pairs of chromosomes - one set from a male and the other set from a female. But occasionally, the original fertilized cell doesn't quite divide correctly and more than two sets arises. The fertilized cell continues to divide with the result that all the cells have the extra set of chromosomes. This happens much oftener in plants and the plant will be sterile and can't form seeds.
Because it's vital to the survival of all species, not just human, that we have resources such as food and water. Also that those resources be clean and healthy. We also need to manage resources such as oil to make sure there are fewer wars like the ones happening in the Middle East. If you need anything else just message me.
Answer:
Sexual reproduction:
Pros: leads to greater genetic variation.
Cons: requires more time and energy.
Asexual reproduction:
Pros: Does not require finding a mate.
Cons: Produce less genetic variation.
Explanation:
Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in higher organisms, in which new individuals are formed by combining genetic information from two different types (sexes) of individuals.
Advantage: Sexual reproduction leads to higher genetic variation due to recombination between genetic material of female and male gamete during meiosis.
Disadvantage: Sexual reproduction is a time and energy consuming process as it needs interaction between mates and organisms which are produced sexually require more time for development.
Asexual reproduction involves formation of new organisms from a single parent organism without gamete fusion.
Advantage: Asexual reproduction requires less time and energy as it does not require finding a mate.
Disadvantage: Asexual reproduction produces less genetic variations as it involves only parent organisms (no mixing of genetic information) and the only source of variations are random mutations.
Because they are prokaryotic cells.
