<em>The birth rate (technically, births/population rate) is the total number of live births per 1,000 in a population in a year or period. lower birth rate will reduce the rate at which a population grows. ... Consider a population that increases 5% every year.</em>
The answer is (A) wave action .
A cross between a diploid individual and a tetraploid individual produces triploid offspring. There are many species of plants that are triploid, but those come from crosses between two triploid individuals. In those cases, the chromosomes from one parent match up with the chromosomes from the other parent just fine. The same is not true with a cross of a tetraploid and a diploid. In that case, one third of the chromosomes are unmatch, causing many offspring to die, to be sterile, or to be generally unfit. Long story short, the answer you seek is False.
