8. Crossing over is an exchange of corresponding segments between nonsister

Biology

prisoha [69]2 years ago

The main benefit of crossing over is that it increases genetic diversity.

<h2>Crossing over and Genetic Diversity</h2>

Crossing over ensures that the daughter cells produced are genetically more diverse than their parent cells.

The exchange of chromosomal segments makes the chromosomes of the daughter cells to be more sophisticated than that of their parents.

Increased genetic diversity in daughter cells increases their chances of survival as more genes are present in their genomes that could potentially make them more adaptable to the environment.

In summary, crossing over increases genetic diversity and genetic diversity increases the chances of survival in the face of changing environment.

Which of the following statements best defines the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve?a) a graphical representation of the amo
saul85 [17]

Answer:

b) a graphical representation of the relationship between hemoglobin's percent saturation and the partial pressure of oxygen

Explanation:

On vertical axis-hemoglobin's oxygen saturation

On horizontal axis-oxygen partial pressure

This curve determines hemoglobin affinity for oxygen. If hemoglobin has high oxygen saturation, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen is high.

As the blood moves through the systemic capillary, hemoglobin's affinity for oxygen decreases, so that oxygen can be released into the cells.

AB+CD (reactant~higher on graph) ---&gt; AC+BD (product~lower on graph)
amid [387]

Answer: Option E) the products have less potential energy than the reactants

Explanation:

Though the actual graph is not displayed, but, whenever reactants occupy a position higher than the product on the graph of reaction coordinate vs time taken, it means the reactants (AB+CD) have molecules with higher energy bonds than the products AC +BD

Thus, the reaction of AB + CD to yield AC+BD will occur spontaneously with the release of energy.
