Why does sexual reproduction increase the genetic variation in a species? a. sexual reproduction doubles the chromosome number. b. sexual reproduction produces organisms with no dna. c. the gametes in sexual reproduction are exact clones of the parents. d. a fertilized egg has a mixture of alleles from the two parents.

Always use significant figure rules. remember that these rules apply to all numbers that are measurements. if a vector that is 3 cm long represents 30 km/h, what velocity does a 5 cm long vector which is drawn using the same scale represent? a.100 km/h b.60km/h c.50km/h

Joe is breeding cockroaches in his dorm room. he finds that the average wing length in his population of cockroaches is 4 cm. he chooses the six cockroaches that have the largest wings; the average wing length among these selected cockroaches is 10 cm. joe interbreeds these selected cockroaches. from earlier studies, he knows that the narrow-sense heritability for wing length in his population of cockroaches is 0.6. a. calculate the selection differential and expected response to selection for wing length in these cockroaches. b. what should be the average wing length of the progeny of the selected cockroaches?

Plz fast biotechnology is a growing field of applied biology. many crops such as corn have been engineered to be resistant to herbicides. therefore farmers can spray these chemicals to kill weeds growing near the crop without worries of killing the crop itself how does this type of biotechnology work? a. by changing the genetic make up of the crops. b. by causing the crops to kill the weeds. c. by changing the type of crops used. d. by changing the location of the crops.
