Answer:

The correct answer is - the affinity of hemoglobin for O2 has decreased.

Explanation:

The oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve or hemoglobin dissociation curve is the graphical representation of the proportion of hemoglobin in its saturated form on the y-axis against the prevailing oxygen tension P0 on the x-axis.

A shift of the curve to the right side indicates the hemoglobin has a reduced or less oxygen affinity. It occurs in cases where oxygen needs to be released such as the placenta for breathing of the fetus and muscles.

Why do traits that give an organism a disadvantage exist during meiosis? Please be as descriptive as possible and write it in yo
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Meiosis is important because during sexual reproduction, it ensures that all produced organisms have the correct number of chromosomes. It is also responsible for producing genetic variations during the process of recombination, and it repairs some genetic defects.

The disadvantage from not having the trait normally arises only after the reproductive stage of the individual's lifecycle is mostly over. This is a special case of "no strong pressure", because evolution selects genes, not the organism. In other words the beneficial mutation does not alter the reproductive fitness.

Explanation:

Meiosis is important because during sexual reproduction, it ensures that all produced organisms have the correct number of chromosomes. It is also responsible for producing genetic variations during the process of recombination, and it repairs some genetic defects.
