The endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus are both membrane-bound organelles found in eukaryotic cells. Which statement desc
snow_lady [41]

<span><span>The ER assembles proteins, and the golgi body modifies and packages them.


</span>ER Golgi apparatus, because it packages proteins received from the ER cytoplasm </span>

<span>The Golgi body are the ones that slightly alter, organize and prepare so-called parcels to be delivered for all the organelles in the cell. They receive these packages mainly in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. These packages that set out by Golgi body are macromolecules that used and synthesized by cells in many operations. If ER is absent then it would only mean that Golgi body would have no use other than simply lysosomes but these macromolecules plays a dynamic role in many organelles –nutrients, ATP and cell metabolism. It'll have a ripple effect if ER is absent in the cell.<span>

Why do asexually reproducing organisms not benefit from recombination? Explain.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Explanation:

While asexual reproduction only involves one organism, sexual reproduction requires both a male and a female. Some plants and unicellular organisms reproduce asexually. Most mammals and fish use sexual reproduction. Some organisms like corals and komodo dragons can reproduce either sexually or asexually. But in the long term (over several generations), lack of sexual reproduction compromises their ability to adapt to the environment because they do not benefit from the genetic variation introduced by sexual reproduction.The key difference between sexual and asexual reproduction is that sexual reproduction involves two parents of the opposite sex while asexual reproduction involves a single parent.

The ability to reproduce and produce a new generation of the same species is one of the fundamental characteristics of a living organism. It involves the transmission of the genetic material from the parental generation to the offspring generation, ensuring the characteristics of the species and perpetuating the characteristics of parental organisms. Before a new individual reaches its own reproductive stage, it normally has to go through a period of growth and development. Some members of the species will die before they reach reproductive age due to predation, disease and accidental death. So the remaining species will only able to produce more offspring and contribute to the continuation of the species. There are two basic types of reproduction; namely, asexual and sexual reproduction.
