Sexual reproduction in eukaryotes increases genetic variation. in prokaryotes, transformation, transduction, and conjugation are mechanisms that increase genetic variation. a fundamental difference between the generations of genetic variation in the two domains is:
a. eukaryotic genetic variation occurs with vertical gene transfer while prokaryotic genetic variation occurs with horizontal gene transfer. b. eukaryotic variation occurs primarily within a single generation while prokaryotic variation occurs over many generations. c. crossing over is a major mechanism in creating genetic variation in prokaryotes while independent assortment is a major mechanism in eukaryotes. d. eukaryotes are able to generate mutations in response to environmental stress while prokaryotes only generate random variation.

A

Explanation:

All living organisms pass on or transfer their genetic material to their offsprings. However, this transfer of genes occurs through the process of reproduction (sexual or asexual). Reproduction may (in case of sexual) or may not (in case of asexual) ensure genetic variation among species.

Eukaryotes that undergo sexual reproduction increase genetic variation among their species by undergoing Crossing-over (exchange of chromosomal segment between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes) during meiosis or gamete formation. This process of transferring genetic material directly from parents to offsprings is called VERTICAL GENE TRANSFER, and only sexual-reproducing eukaryotes ensure genetic variation through this process.

On the other hand, prokaryotic organisms cannot undergo sexual reproduction, they undergo asexual reproduction instead and asexual reproduction does not guarantee genetic variation since identical daughter cells as the parents are produced from the process. However, to promote genetic variation among their species, they employ the processes of transformation, transduction and conjugation which are all forms of HORIZONTAL GENE TRANSFER because it involves transfer of genetic material from one cell (donor) to another (recipient) which do not have the parent-offspring relationship.

answer:

the water molecules are transferred from the roots to the stem or top parts of the tall tree because of important properties of water which are adhesion, cohesion and capillary action. cohesion is the property of water molecules keeps water molecules in a combined state by sharing of bonds between them at the atomic level. adhesion allows the interaction of water molecules with other substances or substrate. adhesion will cause the attachment of water molecules to the wall of the vessel (xylem) of the plant. capillary action occurs when the adhesive force to the vessel wall is stronger than the cohesive force between water molecules. capillary action mimics the transfer of water from a tube or pipe. in this way water utilizes its property to transfer water from down to top level of the plant.
