A diagram shows a potato producing new tubers. Buds on the parent plant grow into stems that grow downwards called stolons. The

end of each stolon develop in to new tuber.
1) Give two pieces of evidence which show that this is an asexual method of reproduction.

2) Explain why all the new tubers will be genetically identical.

Answer/Explanation:

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which new organisms that are identical are formed form a parent without the fusion of male and female gametes and do not require fertilization. Offspring formed are usually identical genetically, and are referred to as clones of the parent. Usually, only one parent is involved.

1. Two pieces of evidence that shows the potato growing is an asexual method of reproduction are:

i. Only one parent is involved

ii. The new tubers are identical (clones of the parent)

2. Reasons Why the new tubers will be genetically identical:

i. They grow from 1 parent by asexual reproduction

ii. No mixing of male and female gametes, so no exchange of genes takes place

Why is gmo modification different for plants and animals
morpeh [17]

In animals, a gene is inserted into an embryo, modifying the genome to manufacture the product of this new gene. In plants, a gene is injected into a single cell that is grown from a seed into a plant. This plant expresses the new gene in all its cells. The difference between GM and selective breeding.

how is the endoplasmic reticulum related to Golgi Body? Best answer w/ clear and detailed explanation gets a brainliest.
Nostrana [21]
Proteins are made by ribosomes and then folded into their correct shape inside the endoplasmic reticulum. These proteins are then taken to the Golgi apparatus, or body, to be modified and then placed into little sacs called vesicles to transport the proteins. The two organelles are related in how they are both involved in the assembly and transportation of proteins.

Clearly your only giving 5 points but ok.

Answer:     Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water.

Buy less plastic and bring a reusable shopping bag. Use long-lasting light bulbs. Energy efficient light bulbs reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Also flip the light switch off when you leave the room!

Drag the pink labels onto the pink targets to identify the two main phases of the cell cycle. Then drag the blue labels onto the
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

There is no diagram provided so I will just explain the mitotic cell cycle.

Here’s a quick basic arrangement in chronological order interphase, mitosis, and finally cytokinesis.

So first you start with interphase which consist of three phases G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase. Cellular growth occurs in G1 phase of interphase this is followed by S phase which is simply when DNA replication occurs. Final this is followed by G2 phase or further growth in preparation for mitosis and/or meiosis.  

I am only going to explain mitosis but just so I don’t confuse you meiosis can also follow interphase. So mitosis consist of four phases. Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Prophase: in this phase the nuclear membrane would dissipate and the chromosomes would condense.

Metaphase: then in metaphase the chromosomes would align in the center of the cell and spindle fibers or microtubules would began growth from the centrioles.  

Anaphase: by the start of this phase spindle fibers would have attached themselves to the chromosomes kinetochores. In this phase the chromatids would separate and that’s really it as you can tell this is the shortest phase in mitosis.

Telophase: finally the chromosomes would be brought to the polar opposite ends of the cell and the nuclear membrane would reform. Also the chromosomes condensed chromosomes would unravel eventually they would be invisible.

Finally the cell would enter cytokinesis were it would split at the cleavage furrow which would have started in anaphase of telophase, all a cleavage furrow is, is microfilaments “pinching the cell” which is just them pulling on either side of the center of the cell.
