The organism that would have the most variation in the DNA of its offspring is the cat (Option C). Meiosis is a type of cell division that generates more genetic variability than asexual types of reproduction.
Meiosis is a type of reductional cell division by which a parental cell produces 4 daughter cells (gametes), each containing half of the genetic material.
Animals (e.g., cats) generate gametes by meiosis which fuse during fertilization to produce new offspring.
Both amoeba and bacteria reproduce by a type of asexual reproduction called binary fission. Moreover, yeasts also reproduce asexually by a process called budding and fission.
Both asexual and sexual types of reproduction generate genetic variability by the emergence of new mutations in daughter cells.
Meiosis generates much more genetic variability than asexual types of reproduction due to two different processes:
- Random assortment of chromosomes, which produces new allele combinations.
- Recombination, i.e., by the exchange of genetic material (DNA) between non-sister chromatids during Prophase I.

The correct answer is A. molecular formula = 2 x empirical formula
The given compound C2H10N2 is the molecular formula because the ratios of the elements are not reduced into lowest terms (empirical formula). To get the empirical formula, the ratios must be reduced to the smallest possible integral ratio which gives CH5N. As a result, the ratio between both formulas is 2.
