Explain using the term semi-conservation replication why we still

Biology
1 answer:
Basile [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Semi-conservation replication describes the mechanism of DNA replication in all known cells. This process is known as semi-conservation because two copies of the original DNA molecule are produced. Each copy contains one original strand and one newly-synthesized strand.

DNA is passed down to the next generation in big chunks called: Chromosomes.

Every generation, each parent passes half their chromosomes to their child. If nothing happened to the chromosomes between generations, then there would be around a 1 in 8 change that you would get no DNA from a great, great, great, great grandparent.

What most people forget, through, is that our chromosomes get mixed and matched before they are passed on. It is because of this "recombination" that your great, great, great grandparent's DNA is almost cetainly still lurking in yours.

Sea anemones can reproduce sexually or asexually. What would be the most likely advantage a sea anemone would have to reproduce
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Re-producing sexually will allow the sea anemones to give their offspring a more diverse gene pool and can mitigate the risks of a genetic disorder being spread to the offspring because the bad gene has a higher chance become recessive if the gene of the anemone it mates with is more dominant (meaning it wouldn't allow the "bad" gene to show in the offspring) whereas otherwise, the offspring would have the same issues the mother did (assuming it had a bad gene to begin with).
