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

Chemistry

Arada [10]3 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.

Is milk a solution, suspension, compound , colloid ?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Colloids (heterogeneous)

The difference between a colloid and a suspension is that the particles will not settle to the bottom over a period of time, they will stay suspended or float. An example of a colloid is milk. Milk is a mixture of liquid butterfat globules dispersed and suspended in water.

What is the mass of oxygen that can be produced from 2.79 moles of lead(ll) nitrate
denis23 [38]

1.38 moles of oxygen

Explanation:

Thermal decomposition of Lead (II) nitrate is shown by the balanced equation below;

2Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2PbO + 4NO₂ + O₂

The mole ration of Lead (II) nitrate to oxygen is 2: 1

Therefore 2.76 moles of  Lead (II) nitrate will lead to production of? moles of oxygen;

2: 1

2.76: x

Cross-multiply;

2x = 2.76 * 1

x = 2.76 / 2

x = 1.38

Mendeleev put elements in groups while creating the periodic table. What important role do groups play in the structure of the p
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Groups show similar chemical properties about the elements

Explanation:

The periodic table is divided into groups and periods. Groups are vertical while periods are horizontal.

All elements in the same group possess the same number of outermost shell electrons. This number of outermost shell electrons controls the reactivity of the elements in the group.

Hence, groups show similar chemical properties of the elements in them, Groups separate elements into families which assist in the speedy study of elements.
