Why do sexually reproducing organisms need gametes? Why don’t asexually reproducing organisms need them?

Biology
1 answer:
Nana76 [90]2 years ago
5 0
Gametes are reproductive cells that unite during sexual reproduction to form a new cell called a zygote. Sexual reproduction needs zygotes to reproduce that is why gametes are needed. Asexual reproduction doesn’t need gametes because there is only one parent and there is no fusion of gametes.

Why are dominant alleles not necessarily more common than recessive alleles?
marta [7]
It all depends on the trait. If the dominant is more common that the recessive trait then it is more likely to a dominant trait in the gene pool. But if the recessive trait is more common in the gene pool then you will have a recessive trait. Does this make sense? Let me know if I'm right!

A woman who has sickle cell anemia passes this disease on to her offspring. This means that the mutation for sickle cell anemia
WITCHER [35]
The mutation will occur on the X chromosome. Males are more susceptible to sickle cell amenia because they only carry one X chromosome instead of two when compared to a set of female chromosomes. If a female only has the mutation on one chromosome the disease will not appear. However, when a male recieves the mutation on the X chromosome, the disease would appear, because they only have one X chromosome.

Which level of biodiversity includes species richness and evenness?
Novay_Z [31]
The answer is:

Community Diversity.

Reason Why: Here is an example, say you have 2 communities, community 1 is A, and community 2 is B, Communities A and B contain 5 tree species, However because community B has greater species evenness it has greater species diversity.
Community A is dominated by one of its 5 species and so has lower species diversity than.....community B, which has the same 5 species but in equal proportion.

Richness- Number of Species
Evenness-Relative abundance.

Hope This Helped!
