Which statement concerning the reproductive cells in the diagram below is correct?
the cells are produced by mitosis and contain all the genetic information of the father
one of these cells fertilizes an egg, the offspring will be identical to the father.
each of these cells contains only half the genetic information necessary for the formations of an offspring
an egg fertilized by one of these cells will develop into a female with the same characteristics as the mother.

The gametes that are produced contain half the actual number of chromosomes that are found in the organism.

Option C

The gametes are the units of sexual reproduction. These gametes are formed from the gamete mother cell by the process of meiosis. Meiosis actually convert a diploid cell into a haploid cell by reducing the chromosome number to half. So the genetic information of the gamete is also half to that of the other cells of that organism.

When two gametes fuse, they actually complete the full set of chromosomes and form a new organism which contains the characters according to the dominant and recessive basis. So offsprings are not completely similar to any of the parents.

hi~~

i would say that hybridization occurs frequently in nature, because there are many types of hybrids that have occurred naturally, such as the mule (male donkey + female horse)

b. lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere   is the answer most likely
