Answer: The correct answer for the fill in the blank is Asexually.
Asexually reproducing organisms have rapid rate of reproduction as only a single parent is involved in this. Also, there is no formation and fusion of gametes in this mode of reproduction.
They produce larger number of offsprings through rapid rate of reproduction. By doing so they have larger chances of survival.
For instance, if a part of bacterial species population is wiped out through viral infection, bacteria can compensate this loss by the rapid rate of reproduction. This increases their chances of survival.
The answer is Carbon Dioxide
Answer:
It seems that a reciprocal translocation is going on.
Explanation:
A translocation occurs when a chromosomal fragment changes its location in the same chromosome from the original to a new one. Or when it leaves the chromosome to re-locate in a new different chromosome.
According to this, there are different types of translocations:
- Intrachromosomal translocations:
- Intra-radial: the change in position occurs in the same arm of the chromosome. For instance, 123.456789 → 123.478569
- Extra-radial: The change in position occurs from one arm to the other of the same chromosome. For instance, 123.456789 → 15623.4789
- Extrachromosomal translocations:
- Transposition: not reciprocal interchange. The fragment leaves a chromosome to re-locate in another chromosome. The other chromosome does not send any fragment to the first one.
- Reciprocal translocation: There is a reciprocal interchange. A fragment of chromosome A goes to B, and a fragment of chromosome B goes to A.
Reciprocal translocations might be:
- Fraternal: the interchange occurs among homologous chromosomes
- External: the interchange occurs among non-homologous chromosomes
Reciprocal translocations are easily recognized during meiosis because an association between four chromosomes can be observed. This association is a quadrivalent structure.
During metaphase 1, the centromeres involved in the quadrivalent originate centromeric co-orientation or disjunction.
