Recombination is the method by which organisms can randomly assort their genotypes amongst each other to create offspring with a different haplotype than either of its parents. This can be done by either copying sequences from one homologous chromosome to another (no physical exchange) or crossing over (physical exchange.
Crossing over is a mechanism in eukaryotes by which recombination can occur, in which the two homologous chromosomes contributed by both parents literally cross over and break at certain points to exchange certain sections of the chromosomes amongst each together.
Self fertilizing organisms typically do not produce offspring that are genetically identical. However, this has an inbreeding effect on its offspring, since it is recombining from the same genotype and so has a higher chance of producing homozygous offspring. This is very detrimental for mammals and some eukaryotes, but in some other organisms such as bacteria, homozygosity is typically not an issue.
Answer:
Phoebus Levene.
Explanation:
Two types of nucleic acids are DNA and RNA. The monomers of mucleic acid contains the pentose sugar, nitrogenous bases and the phosphate group attached with the bases.
Friedrich Miescher was the first scientists who discovered the nucleic acids. He identified the nucleic acids from the bandage that contains the nuclei of white blood cells. The new compounds discovered is known as nucleic acid. But the monomers of the nucleic acids was first explained by Phoebus Levene. Different forms of nucleic acid was also postulated by Phoebus Levene.
Thus, the answer is Phoebus Levene.
Biology: study of life
hope this helped!
p.s. can i please have brainliest? :)
Answer:
option c punctuated equilibrium
Explanation:
Punctuated equilibrium occurs in a process whereby evolutionary changes occurs in some organisms in a rapid burst of time rather the conceived gradual changes that occurs over a long period of time. this burst of time might be in about 500,000 years. It is assumed that the organism has maintained/lives in stasis for a long period without a need for change, but then, once the change takes place (most of the time, due to an environmental factor), the organism quickly adapts to its new environment with this new adaptation.
