Elenna [48]

Answer:

1. 50% of the genome comes from each parent because it is crucial otherwise if the ratio changes, the zygote may not form and if formed the fetus may have some other kind of chromosome number related syndromes etc.

2.  Sexual reproduction produces greater genetic variability than asexual methods. This is because of the process of crossing over during meiosis that exchange the segments of chromosome that is necessary for producing mutations and genetic variability.

3. 50% of chromosomes match with each parent because both of the parents contributed 23 chromosomes and exactly 50% of their genome.

4. The gametes must be produced by two different individuals cause that is the main purpose of sexual reproduction and give better survival like this to the forming next generation. Not to mention produces greater genetic variability among species.

5. Plants always produces both eggs because they are hermaphroditic in nature.

seraphim [82]

Answer: The frequency of brown beetles is 0.32.

Explanation: The frequency of A1 allele is 0.8. As p+q=1, or the sum of dominant and recessive frequencies equals 1 or 100%:

1 - 0.8 = 0.2

In Hardy-Weinberg principle,

p^{2} + 2pq + q^{2} = 1

2pq represents the frequency of heterozygote individuals, so:

genotype A1A2 = 2*0.8*0.2 = 0.32.

Thus, the frequency of brown beetles (A1A2) in the population is 0.32.

How can I remember this definition of hybridization? (Like hints)
Vaselesa [24]
Easy. A hybrid is literally a crossing of two things. A hybrid is a blueprint (genetic instructions) ready to be build.

If you can remember the hybrid and blueprint part I'm pretty sure you'll get it.

The neuroendocrine system combines brain actions and and other bodily functions. In the brain, the hypothalamus maintains the balance (homoestasis) which affects other functions of the body such as metabolism, regulating reproduction, utilization of energy, drinking and eating behavior, blood pressure and osmolarity.
