Explanation:
Genetic variation in offspring during sexual reproduction is caused by
- crossing over
- independent assortment
- randomized fertilization
Further Explanation:
All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. To produce daughter cells during cell division, the chromosomes (total number of chromosomes (2n)) are copied before the cell splits into two daughter cells. This process is known as mitosis, and occurs in cell division and growth processes. Two new nuclei are formed, along with identical cells. These are the same as the parent cell and the chromosome number (2n) is maintained.
Conversely in meiosis, the number of chromosomes (2n) is halved through meiotic divisions, producing 4 (n) germ cells (sperm or eggs), each containing half the number of chromosomes as its parent cell.
- crossing over: the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined.
- independent assortment in metaphase I of meiosis: chromosomes align independently and genes segregate independently into new combinations ...in humans 2n, n = 23, 8 million combinations of chromosomes possible
- randomized fertilization: sperm cells fertilize an ovum to form a zygote. This occurs randomly by chance, to result in a complete set of chromosomes 2n, that is a novel combination of half each parent's number of chromosomes

Answer:
True
Explanation:
According to Mendelian's law of inheritance, the dominant allele is the allele that is expressed in an individual while the recessive allele are usually not expressed in the phenotype of an individual.
If a parents is dominant for a particular allele of tallness and recessive for a particular allele of shortness it is observed that the dominant allele is what is expressed in the phenotype of the offspring and inherited in simple Mendelian fashion by the offspring.
Answer:
Same type of daughter cells
Explanation:
The process of mitosis form two daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes but the meiosis form four different daughter cells with a different number of chromosomes.
Also, the meiosis produces genetically different cell as the meiosis I is marked with the crossing over events which produces different genetic combination in the cell. In the given question, since the cell divides with the mitosis therefore the daughter cells will be produced with the same type of genetic material.
Thus, the same type of daughter cells is correct.
Answer:
The skeletal system works as a support structure for your body. It gives the body its shape, allows movement, makes blood cells, provides protection for organs and stores minerals.
Explanation:
A mutation which occurs when a base is introduced into the DNA sequence before transcription begins will lead to frame-shift of a single base on the DNA sequence resulting in nonfunctional protein from the transcribed mRNA.
Explanation:
This change either through addition or deletion of a single base in the codon sequences of the DNA will modify the amino acid codes and will result in nonfunctional proteins after transcription.
This mutation will just result in change of a single base, i.e., it would be added either to the enhancer region or the silencer region of the sequence before the promoter which initiates transcription.
The mRNA produced due to mutated DNA sequence after the deletion or insertion point will be read as out of frame thus resulting in nonsense protein.
