Asingle-cell diploid organism acquires a deleterious point mutation before entering mitosis. if one of the daughter cells reproduces asexually, and the other daughter cell goes through meiosis to produce gametes that fuse with gametes from other individuals, which cell lineage will be most evolutionarily successful?

A single-cell diploid organism acquires a deleterious point mutation before entering mitosis. If one of the daughter cells reproduces asexually, and the other daughter cell goes through meiosis to produce gametes that fuse with gametes from other individuals. The daughter cell undergoing meiosis will be the most evolutionarily successful. In the process of meiosis the DNA gets crossed between two organisms leading to an offspring without any deleterious point mutation. In case of asexual reproduction, the daughter cell will give an identical set of genome to its offspring. Hence the offspring will also carry the mutation, and depending on the lethality of the mutation the lineage will propagate.

emerald ash borer

the emerald ash borer is a green buprestid or jewel beetle native to north-eastern asia that feeds on ash species. females lay eggs in bark crevices on ash trees, and larvae feed underneath the bark of ash trees to emerge as adults in one to two years. hope this !
