Aphids are a common plant-pest insect. They alternate between asexual and sexual reproduction. During the summer, aphid populati

ons grow quickly by
asexual reproduction. As winter approaches, aphids switch to sexual reproduction,
What advantage does the switch to sexual reproduction give the aphids?
O Sexual reproduction decreases variation in the population and prevents the spread of harmful mutations
O Sexual reproduction maintains a constant level of variation in the population and requires less energy
O Sexual reproduction increases variation in the population and provides for adaptability in a changing environment
O Sexual reproduction produces individuals that are clones and allows rapid population growth under stable environmental conditions

Which of the following was NOT a motivation for the creation of ASEAN?
irga5000 [103]
<span>ASEAN is an Association of Southeast Asian Nations - a multination association that has as its aim an economic cooperation between Southeast Asian countries (such as Thailand). This association did not arise as a response to external factors, so any reason connected to externam factors would not apply - such as the reliance on some external powers (such as the US). It is focused on the cooperation between the members only - not an external association.</span>

Two cell divisions mitosis or meiosis
Troyanec [42]
Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells.[1]Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle. In eukaryotes, there are two distinct types of cell division: a vegetative division, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell (mitosis),[2] and a reproductive cell division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes(meiosis). Meiosis results in four haploid daughter cells by undergoing one round of DNA replication followed by two divisions. Homologous chromosomes are separated in the first division, and sister chromatids are separated in the second division. Both of these cell division cycles are used in the process of sexual reproduction at some point in their life cycle. Both are believed to be present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor.

Prokaryotes (bacteria) undergo a vegetative cell division known as binary fission, where their genetic material is segregated equally into two daughter cells. All cell divisions, regardless of organism, are preceded by a single round of DNA replication.

For simple unicellular microorganisms such as the amoeba, one cell division is equivalent to reproduction – an entire new organism is created. On a larger scale, mitotic cell division can create progeny from multicellular organisms, such as plants that grow from cuttings. Mitotic cell division enables sexually reproducing organisms to develop from the one-celled zygote, which itself was produced by meiotic cell division from gametes. After growth, cell division by mitosis allows for continual construction and repair of the organism.[3] The human body experiences about 10 quadrillion cell divisions in a lifetime.[4]

The primary concern of cell division is the maintenance of the original cell's genome. Before division can occur, the genomic information that is stored in chromosomes must be replicated, and the duplicated genome must be separated cleanly between cells.[5] A great deal of cellular infrastructure is involved in keeping genomic information consistent between generations.

In natural selection, what must be true of traits that are passed down through generation?
Radda [10]
Natural selection is the process by which individuals who are best suited to the environment tend to leave (on average) more offspring than others.

Evolutionary changes take place over many generations and through millions of years of natural selection. For the genes to survive, they must be among the strongest.

When using a microscope to view cells you obtained from scraping under your fingernails, you notice that the cells lack nuclei;
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Bacteria

Explanation:

There are two kinds of cells found in/on the human body that lacks nucleus

  1. Red blood cells
  2. Bacteria

Since the material observed under the microscope was scraped from under the finger nails and there was no indication of broken skin, it is likely that the observed cells are bacteria.
