Answer:
<em>A mutation in his offspring</em>
Explanation:
A mutation can be described as any change which occurs in the DNA of an organism. Mutations can be either heritable or non-heritable
If a mutation occurs in the gamete cells of a male, the mutation will be heritable and will occur in his offsprings.
Other options, like option D, is not correct because a mutation in the gamete cells will not cause a mutation in the somatic cells. Gamete cells are the sex cells and hence mutation will arise in the sex cells.
Asexual Reproduction characteristics
1. Offspring are genetically and morphologically similar to each other and the parents and are some time referred to as clones
2. Asexual reproduction is a characteristics reproduction process in simpler organisms.
3. Diploid cells are formed
Sexual Reproduction Characteristics
1. Haploid cells are formed
2. involves both meiosis and mitosis
3. Multiplication is slow in asexual reproduction as compared to the sexual reproduction
Characteristics common in both sexual mode of reproduction-
- Gametes are formed
- fertilization takes place
- Off springs carry genes and genetic information from their parents.
Dinoflagellates are large group of flagellate eukaryotes (multicellular organisms) that constitute the group dinoflagellata. Red tides is a common name for alga bloom (large concentrations of aquatic microorganisms ) which when caused by a few species of dinoflagellate and the bloom takes on a red or brown color. Therefore, the answer to the question is red tides.
