Answers

Answer:

La reproducción sexual consisten en la unión de dos gametos uno femenino y otro masculino, para formar un nuevo individuo con características provenientes de ambos progenitores. Los gametos son células especializadas que se forman por un proceso meiótico y tienen en su núcleo la mitad de la información genética de un organismo, por lo que reciben el nombre de células haploides de manera que cuando se une sus cromosomas se forman células diploides característico de la especie. La característica más importante de este tipo de reproducción es la variación genética que implica que los descendientes tengan características de sus dos progenitores, por lo que son diferentes a ellos. El proceso en el que se une las células sexuales se le conoce como fecundación. En los animales esta pude ser interna o externa.

Explanation:

Los gametos (óvulos y espermatozoides) son células germinales especializadas que se desarrollan a partir de un proceso llamado gametogénesis (espermatogénesis en machos y ovogénesis en hembras). El proceso de gametogénesis implica un tipo de división celular llamado 'meiosis' donde la cantidad de cromosomas se reduce a la mitad. En humanos, el número cromosómico diploide (2n) de 46 cromosomas se reduce a un número haploide (n) de 23 cromosomas. La fecundación es el proceso por el cual los gametos se fusionan durante la reproducción sexual para producir un cigoto diploide. En la reproducción sexual, el aumento de la variación genética en la progenie es un resultado de tres procesos diferentes: la unión aleatoria entre gametos durante la fecundación, la distribución independiente de los cromosomas durante la gametogénesis y el entrecruzamiento (recombinación o crossing over) entre cromátidas de cromosomas homólogos durante la meiosis. Finalmente, en animales, la fecundación puede ser interna, la cual se produce mediante la unión de los gametos dentro del cuerpo de la hembra (por ejemplo, gallina, leona, cebra, etc.), o fecundación externa, donde la fusión de gametos se produce en el ambiente externo (por ejemplo en peces, sapos, ranas, etc.).

Which is not a cost for organisms that sexually reproduce?

Answers

Answer:

Identical shape and structure.

Explanation:

Those organisms that reproduce sexually have high variations and differences between the parent and its offspring. They are not identical to each other because the offspring gains half characteristics from male parent and half from the female parent making it different from its parent. Identical feature is present in the organisms that reproduce through asexually means from only one parent so the identical shape and structure is not the cost of sexual reproduction.

Which of the following best describes the difference between population size and population density?

A. Population density measures the abundance of an organism, whereas population size measures the distribution

B. Population size measures the abundance of an organism, whereas population density measures the distribution

C. Population size measures abundance, but population density measures how rapidly the size changes

D. Both variables measure abundance, but population density takes the into account the size of individuals, not just the number of individuals in the population

E. None of these descriptions are correct

Answers

Population size refers to the number of individuals, while population dendity refers to the number of individuals per unit of area or volume. The correct option is E. None of these descriptions are correct.

------------------------------------------------

Before answering the question, let us review the concepts of population size and density.

Population size refers to the number of individuals composing a population.

Population size might determine the destiny of the population.

A small population has more chances to get extinct than a bigger-sized population.

Density refers to the average number of individuals of the same species per unit of area or volume. This measure may be more significant than population size.

To estimate population density there are two possible methods: Direct methods and indirect methods.  

Abundance indexes are the parameters related to density, and they reflect changes that might happen in the target population density. They are commonly used to compare population sizes.

According to these concepts, the correct option is E. None of these descriptions are correct.

Most living organisms need to take in oxygen to survive. What is responsible for

fish and phytoplankton

seaweed and phytoplankton
coral and fish

Answers

Plants and seaweed provide most of the oxygen

Most living organisms need to take in oxygen to survive. It is responsible for plants and seaweed.

What are seaweeds?

Some seaweeds are microscopic, such as the phytoplankton that live suspended in the water column and provide the base for most marine food chains. Some are enormous, like the giant kelp that grow in abundant “forests” and tower like underwater redwoods from their roots at the bottom of the sea.

Most are medium-sized, come in colors of red, green, brown, and black, and randomly wash up on beaches and shorelines just about everywhere.

The vernacular “seaweed” is a bona-fide misnomer, because a weed is a plant that spreads so profusely it can harm the habitat where it takes hold.

Therefore, Most living organisms need to take in oxygen to survive. It is responsible for plants and seaweed.

What causes matter to be in a particular state (phase)?

Answers

Answer:

In the physical sciences, a phase is a region of space (a thermodynamic system), throughout which all physical properties of a material are essentially uniform. Examples of physical properties include density, index of refraction, magnetization and chemical composition. A simple description is that a phase is a region of material that is chemically uniform, physically distinct, and (often) mechanically separable. In a system consisting of ice and water in a glass jar, the ice cubes are one phase, the water is a second phase, and the humid air is a third phase over the ice and water. The glass of the jar is another separate phase. (See state of matter § Glass)
