Which organism would have the most variation in the DNA of its offspring?

Chemistry

Arada [10]2 years ago

The organism that would have the most variation in the DNA of its offspring is the cat (Option C). Meiosis is a type of cell division that generates more genetic variability than asexual types of reproduction.

Meiosis is a type of reductional cell division by which a parental cell produces 4 daughter cells (gametes), each containing half of the genetic material.

Animals (e.g., cats) generate gametes by meiosis which fuse during fertilization to produce new offspring.

Both amoeba and bacteria reproduce by a type of asexual reproduction called binary fission. Moreover, yeasts also reproduce asexually by a process called budding and fission.

Both asexual and sexual types of reproduction generate genetic variability by the emergence of new mutations in daughter cells.

Meiosis generates much more genetic variability than asexual types of reproduction due to two different processes:

  • Random assortment of chromosomes, which produces new allele combinations.

  • Recombination, i.e., by the exchange of genetic material (DNA) between non-sister chromatids during Prophase I.

Compare the trends for atomic size and first ionization energy.
bazaltina [42]

Explanation:

On a periodic table, the atomic size is depicted by the radius of the atom.

Across a period, the atomic radius reduces progressively from left to right.

Down the group from top to bottom, atomic radii increases progressively.

For the ionization energy, from left to right, across the period, it increases progressively and down a group it reduces.

These two trends are related in that as the atomic radius decreases across the period there is an increasing nuclear charge which is not compensated for by the the successive shells of electrons being added. This also similar down the group.
