The chromosomes of offspring are not identical to those of their parents or siblings because <u>genetic information</u> is shuffled during meiosis.
Meiosis can be described as a cell division process by which gamete cells divide. The number of chromosomes is reduced to half in this cell division process.
During the process of meiosis, genetic information is shuffled between non-sister chromatids of the homologous chromosomes. This shuffling process is referred to as crossing over. A new combination of alleles is formed due to the process of crossing over.
It is due to the process of crossing over that the organisms produced are not identical to each other or the parents. Genetic diversity is important in order for populations to survive which is possible through the process of meiosis.

Answer:Answer below
Explanation:
It's kinda hard to answer without the scenarios present.Wait nvm
1. the greenhouse effect is the process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without its atmosphere.The greenhouse effect occurs naturally. Lately the greenhouse effect has been magnified due to greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere by humans. and global warming is a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth's atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, CFCs, and other pollutants.Global warming refers to the increase in annual average temperatures across the globe. As the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere increases, the planet becomes warmer and warmer on average.
2. atmospheric carbon dioxide acts as a thermostat in regulating the temperature of Earth
3. fossil fuels like coal oil and natural gasses
Answer:
All are true of the movement of Earth's atmosphere except :
d. Warm air is less dense than cool air so it tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface.
Explanation:
- When gases heat up, their volume increases and density decrease.
- A decrease in density causes a substance to become lighter.
- Thus, when air warms up due to heat from the sun its density decreases and it gets lighter.
- So, it will move up.
- The Cooler air in turn is denser and heavier so it will sink towards the Earth's surface.
- Hence, the statement d , which states that 'warm air is less dense than cool air so in tends to sink towards the Earth's Surface' is FALSE.
Answer:
D. Longshore currents
Explanation:
Longshore currents are characterized as the sediment transport that occurs in the surf zone, due to the oblique incidence of the waves, along the beach. A current develops between the beach and the surf zone parallel to the coast, normally between 0.3 and 1 m / s. It is this process that is responsible for accumulating and removing sand that results in displacement of barrier islands.
The salmon will not starve as its prey increased.
The smelt is not the predator of the alewife.
The answer is D.
