Why is meiosis important in maintaining genetic diversity?

Question 6 options:

A Meiosis creates diversity by cutting each chromosome exactly in half.


B The two different chromosomes of the organism producing the sex cell (egg or sperm) are mixed up during crossover, creating a new combination of alleles.


C It creates sex cells (eggs or sperm) that have exactly the same alleles (version of a gene) as the parents.


D The chromosomes in meiosis are copied so they are exactly the same as the organism producing the gamete, except they have just one copy.

Answers

Answer:

We now know that meiosis is the process of chromosomal reduction which allows the production of haploid germ cells necessary for sexual reproduction. Meiosis is furthermore important for its role in enabling genetic diversity and facilitating the repair of genetic defects through recombination.

Explanation:

Brainliest please?

Meiosis is a specialized form of a cell division in which number of chromosomes is reduced to half. The reduction in chromosome number is achieved by one round of DNA replication and two rounds of chromosome segregation.    

Meiosis produces genetic variation by the process of recombination.Recombination occurs when two molecules of DNA exchange pieces of their genetic material. The process of recombination occurs during the prophase stage of meiosis I. In meiosis, crossing over occurs between the non-sister chromatids in a homologous pair (one from each parent) of chromosomes.

The correct answer is option B. The two different chromosomes of the organism producing the sex cell (egg or sperm) are mixed up during crossover, creating a new combination of alleles.

Other options-

A. Meiosis creates diversity by cutting each chromosome exactly in half - incorrect .In meiosis the chromosome number is reduced to half.

C. It creates sex cells (egg or sperm) that have exactly the same alleles (version of a gene) as the parents-incorrect. The sex cells produced are not genetically identical to the parent cell.

D. The chromosome in meiosis are copied so they are exactly the same as the organism producing the gamete, except they have just one copy-incorrect. In meiosis the chromosomes are not exactly copied.

Which ocean current directly affects the weather along the southernmost coast of the eastern United States A. Gulf Stream B. Monsoon current C. North Atlantic Drift D. South Pacific Equatorial Current

Answers

Equatorial current, ocean current flowing westward near the equator, predominantly controlled by the winds. Characteristically, equatorial-current systems consist of two westward-flowing currents approximately 600 miles (1,000 km) wide (North and South equatorial currents) separated by an eastward-flowing countercurrent only 300 miles (480 km) wide. Usually flowing at depths of less than 1,650 feet (500 m), equatorial currents travel at rates of 10 to 40 inches per second (25 to 100 cm per second). Equatorial undercurrents, centred on the equator at depths of 160 to 500 feet (49 to 152 m), flow eastward at rates up to 5 feet/s (1.5 m/s) and are approximately 1,000 feet (305 m) deep and 640 miles (1,030 km) wide.

How can competition contribute to evolution through natural selection?

Answers

Answer: During competition, organisms that have favorable traits for this task will survive and are said to be selected. These organisms will reproduce and pass on those traits to their offspring. Thus, the frequency of organisms with those traits will increase

Explanation: In Darwin's theory on the mechanism of evolution, competition among living things is viewed as a major part of the “struggle for existence” and therefore as a basis for natural selection (Darwin 1872).

Intraspecific competition occurs between members of the same species. For example, two male birds of the same species might compete for mates in the same area. This type of competition is a basic factor in natural selection. It leads to the evolution of better adaptations within a species.

Explanation:

Answer: C.

Explanation: Natural resources are resources that exist without any actions of humankind. Basically materials or substances such as minerals, forests, water, and fertile land that occur in nature and can be used for economic gain. Rocks are a source of natural resources and so is air. If the answer is not correct, then it must be D.

Since transport of materials in and out of the cell can only happen at the cell's surface, what happens as cells get larger? How does this impose a limit on cell size?

Answers

Answer:

The surface area/volume ratio will decrease

Explanation:

How does this impose a limit on cell size?

Because the ability of a cell to exchange substances with its environment is proportional to its surface area.

Hence, if surface area/volume decrease and get too small, surface area is not sufficient to take up substances needed to support metabolism or get rid of wastes.

Explanation:

A captive breeding program can be defined as the process of collecting wild specimen and allowing them to reproduce in an environment away from predation. This is an important part of saving endangered species. Specimens of such species are bred in zoos and similar facilities in order to build a healthy population. Sometimes, these species are successfully reintroduced back into the wild. Examples of animals that were successfully saved like this are the California condor, black-footed ferret, golden lion tamarin, and red wolf.

Indicate whether a solution will have more OH– or H+ if the pH value of the solution
is 10.

Answers

A pH level of 10 is very alkaline, and one indicator of a solution being an base would be that it was a hydroxide (OH-) therefore the solution would have more OH- .

The solution with a pH value of 10 will have more OH- ions.  

In chemistry, pH is described as a scale that is specifically utilized to specify the basicity or acidity of an aqueous solution. The pH of different solutions are described as follows:

Acidic solution: If a solution has pH<7, then the solution is acidic and tend to have more H+ ions than OH- ions Neutral solution: The solution is neutral when pH=7 and the concentration of H+ and OH- ions are the same Basic solution: If a solution has pH>7, then the solution is Basic and tend to have more OH- ions than H+ ions

Thus, in this case, pH>7 and thus we can conclude that the solution will have more OH- ions than H+ ions.

If 35% of the bases in a region of the mouse genome are cytosine, what percentage in that region are adenine? 

A. 15%

B. 20%

C. 30%

D. 35%

E. 40%

Answers

Answer:

A. 15%

Explanation:

DNA is composed of four nitrogen bases: Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G), and Cytosine (C). Chargaff's rule of base pairing states that A always pairs with T, while G always pairs with C. The total distributed percentage of the four 4 nitrogen bases must be equal to 100%. In this case, the C content is 35%, thereby G=35% (i.e., equal to C content), while the remaining 30% must be equally divided between T=15% and A=15%.

True or False

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Doppler's effect is the apparent change in the wavelength and frequency of a wave as it moves towards or away from an observer.

The relative motion between the observer and the source causes changes to the wavelength and frequency. This effect is the doppler's effect. When a source moves closer, the frequency of the wave increases. For example, we see that effect of water ripples when a stone is dropped in still water.

Adenine pairs with thymine and Guanine pairs with cytosine. The numbers are not exactly the same because of the mutations that happen in DNA. Some of the DNA could be broken off or put somewhere else in the gene that would throw everything off, nothing is perfect. However in a perfect world, both adenine and thymine would have the same numbers.

_________ is required for energy given to proteins in the phospholipid layer.
a.Anaerobic
b.Aerobic
c.Active transport
d.Turgor
e. Passive transport

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Active transport is required for energy given to proteins in the phospholipid layer (Option c).

Active transport is a type of transport across a cell membrane that requires energy, usually in the form of ATP, to move substances (either molecules or ions) against a gradient of concentration.

Conversely, passive transport refers to the movement of substances across a membrane in favor of a concentration gradient, which does not require energy.

Active transport is mediated by transporter proteins known as carriers and/or pumps.

In conclusion, active transport is required for energy given to proteins in the phospholipid layer (Option c).
