Answer:

Protozoans can be parasitic. Malaria is the most significant of the protozoan parasites that infect humans. Malaria is found in tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. In addition, tropical countries are often affected by poverty, poor sanitation, and inadequate medical facilities. These factors often increase the transmission of parasitic diseases.

Which statement is not an accurate description of meiosis?

sesenic [268]

<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Which statement is not an accurate description of meiosis? A) Meiosis produces offspring that are genetically diverse. B) Meiosis produces offspring that are identical to the parent. C) In sexual reproduction half of the genetic material comes from the father (sperm) and half of the genetic material comes from the mother (egg). D) Meiosis decreases the number of chromosomes by half so that when a sperm fertilizes an egg, the resulting zygote has the correct number of chromosomes

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Meiosis produces offspring that are identical to the parent.

Option B.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Meiosis is a type of cell division that is generally seen during then gametogenesis of the higher animals where the diploid cells become haploid, thereby reducing the chromosome number of cell to half. This meiotic division ensures that the gametes produced are haploid in nature, so that when they fuse the zygote becomes diploid. And the meiosis also involves the steps like and indepencrossing overdent assortment which ensures that the offsprings produced are not identical to each other or with the parent as well. So the statement that meiosis produces identical offsprings is false.
