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.

arrange the following events in the correct order, from left to right, with respect to the function of the channels, ion permeab
MrMuchimi

The arranged events in respect to the function of the channels, ion permeability, and changes in membrane potential from top to bottom  include:

1. opening of voltage-gated Na+ channels

2. Na+ ion flow into the neuron increases

3. depolarization of the membrane to +30 mV

4. K+ ion flow out of the neuron increases

5. repolarization of the membrane.

<h3>What is Membrane potential?</h3>

This is defined as the difference in electric potential between the interior and exterior parts of a biological cell and also refers to the potential gradient which facilitates the movement of ions in a cell in one direction.

In a cell, the series of events which occur according the variables such as ion permeability is  opening of voltage-gated Na+ channels and is usually ended by the repolarization of the membrane.

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.
Nonamiya [84]

Ans.

Platelets are a type of blood cells, responsible for blood clotting. These cells prevent excessive blood loss from wound as they form plug or clot at the site of injury to repair the damage.  Thus, the option). platelets is correctly matched with 'clotting blood.'

White blood cells or WBCs are components of immune system that protect the body from harmful foreign molecules, such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses and harmful body cells, such as tumor cells.  Thus, the option). white blood cells is correctly matched with 'fighting bacteria.'

Red blood cells or RBCs are blood cells that transport oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nutrients to the different part of the body. These cells are made up of hemoglobin and protein. Thus, the option). red blood cells is correctly matched with 'clotting blood.'

Plasma is the non-cellular, colorless, fluid portion of blood, composed of proteins, vitamins, antibodies, amino acids, and other micromolecules. It is responsible for viscous nature of blood. Thus, the option). plasma is correctly matched with 'providing viscosity to the blood.'
