Answer:

While in mitosis, genes are generally transferred faithfully from one cellular generation to the next; in meiosis and subsequent sexual reproduction, genes get mixed up. Sexual reproduction actually expands the variety created by meiosis, because it combines the different varieties of parental genotypes.

Explain why increased ecosystem diversity contribute to increased biodiversity in the biosphere
Leto [7]

Answer: Diversity, referring to the state of having many different organisms cohabitate within an area is a desirable outcome for many ecosystems. The presence of a wide spectrum of different organisms allows for more life to be able to thrive in an ecosystem. For example, an ecosystem with a wide array of shrubs, grasslands and forested areas is able to accommodate more life forms than an ecosystem of just forest. This increased capacity to support life directly improves the capacity of the biosphere to support life as well, diversity leading to growth.

Proteins and nucleic acids both play vital roles in the structure and function of cells.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Part A: Proteins are made from amino acid monomers. There are 20 different types of amino acids which make up all the proteins of the body. The amino acids are made up of a carbon atom which is joined to an amino group, a carboxyl group and a variant group, known as R. Nucleic acids are made up of 5 carbon sugar, phosphate group and nitrogenous bases.  Hence, nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides.

Part B: Protiens are important molecule which carry out various functions of the body. They are involved in regulation of various body process. Some proteins are involved in the transportation of various molecules. Other type of proteins are involved in various immune functions and hence protect the body. For example, antibodies are proteins which defend the body against pathogens.

Nucleic acids are involved in the storing and expressing of genetic information. They also direct the body for protein synthesis.
