Answer:

In asexual reproduction there is no mating or mixing of genetics. Asexual reproduction results in a clone of the parent, meaning the offspring have identical DNA as the parent.

One way for an asexually reproducing species to get diversity is through mutations at the DNA level. If there is a mistake in mitosis, the copying of the DNA, then that mistake will be passed down to the offspring, possibly changing its traits. Some mutations do not change the phenotype—or observable characteristics—however, so not all mutations in asexual reproduction result in variations in the offspring.​

Explain why it is impossible for a man to be a carrier of a sex-linked trait.
hoa [83]

Answer:

Because it contains two different sex chromosomes

Explanation:

Man in its genome contains two sex chromosomes, X and Y, while woman contains two X chromosomes.

In order to be a carrier of a sex-linked trait, a person should have one copy (one allele) of a certain trait. For example, if a female has one X chromosome with mutation (e.g. disease carrying) and one normal X chromosome, she is carrier for the disease. But, on the other hand if a male has one X chromosome with mutation he will develop that disease.

As temperature increases the rate of enzyme activity increases until it reaches approximately 37 degrees Celsius. As temperature
UNO [17]

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

As temperature increases the rate of enzyme activity increases until it reaches approximately 37 degrees Celsius. As temperature increases beyond 37 degrees Celsius, the enzyme activity decreases. The activity decreases because the enzyme denatures.

Any enzyme has certain temperature, pH and pressure to maintain its activity. Only at the ideal or ambient parameters the enzyme works. Most of the enzymes that are present in the human body gets activated by 37 degrees and gets denatured beyond that temperature.
