Which genetic variation occures during fertilization when the egg and sperm meet?

Biology
1 answer:
Zina [86]2 years ago
3 0
Answer: crossing over

during the process of fertilization, a sperm and egg join together to create a zygote. since a sperm had half the number of chromosomes and an egg has half the number of chromosomes, when they join together the zygote had a complete diploid set of chromosomes. the assortment of chromosomes and crossing over promotes genetic variation during the process of reproduction

Explain the difference between afferent and efferent neurons.
natka813 [3]

Answer:

<h3>The Difference between Afferent and Efferent Neurons :- </h3>

  • Neurons that receive information from our sensory organs (e.g. eye, skin) and transmit this input to the central nervous system are called afferent neurons.

  • Neurons that send impulses from the central nervous system to your limbs and organs are called efferent neurons.

“Heredity and environment play an important role in determining human development and behavior”.
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Heredity is a term that refers to something we have gained from our parents, they can be some physical traits like appearance or behavioral traits like generosity, ethics etc.

When we talk about development of an individual, science has proved that both heredity and environment play a crucial role. There is no doubt that certain things are predetermined in our genetic make up like our height, weight and complexion etc but there are several ways in which environment influences and modifies those traits.

Let's take some examples:

  • A kid is born in Africa whose parents inherited just appropriate and ideal height and intelligence to him, But he was surrounded by the conditions where he could not get sufficient food , minerals and nutrients that hindered  not only his physical growth and development but his intelligence level did not reach that potential too that was predetermined in  his genes. So, we can say that environment influenced the kid and modified the traits he inherited from parents.
  • Similarly, there are many boys that inherit fair complexions from their parents but they have a lot of sun exposure due to out door sports and activities. So, parents observe that after teens their complexion is getting towards darker tone although in preadolescence they were just as fair as other siblings. This is proven by studies that sun exposure turns the skin tan and darker than original tone.

Therefore, we can say that both Heredity and environment play an important role in determining human development and behavior.

Is selection more effective against recessive alleles in haploid or diploid organisms?
svet-max [94.6K]
The selection of more effective which is against recessive alleles in haploid organisms than diploid organisms. This is because haploid organisms contain a single set of alleles if a deleterious allele is present in haploid organisms which will produce its effect immediately as there will be no dominant allele which can prevent the expression of the recessive allele as it happens in diploids. Recessive allele will not produce its effect in presence of the dominant allele in the case of heterozygote which is Aa.
Where there is haploid the selection will be more effective when removing recessive alleles in the population. It is the homozygous recessive condition which as aa then the selection will act against recessive alleles.
