6)
In ovaries, the final products of meiosis are
A)
haploid cells.
B)
diploid cells.
C)
triploid cells.
D)
polyploid cells.
7)
Which example represents a DISADVANTAGE of asexual reproduction?
A)
Genetic variety slowly causes hundreds of species of beetles to form from a single species.
B)
A single antibiotic is able to quickly and easily kill millions of genetically identical bacteria.
C)
Millions of bacteria are quickly produced by cell division, in one afternoon in a jug of milk that has been left on the counter.
D)
Male anglerfish must live on larger females as parasitic mates, since they encounter other anglerfish so infrequently in the deep ocean.
A, B (disadvantage for the bacteria)
lol idk
a and b
B a
To answer question 6, we need to understand the process of meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in reproductive cells (such as those found in ovaries or testes) and produces gametes (sperm or eggs).
During meiosis, the cell undergoes two divisions resulting in the formation of four daughter cells. These daughter cells are genetically different from the parent cell and each other due to the shuffling of genetic material.
The final products of meiosis are haploid cells. "Haploid" means that these cells have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. This is because the chromosome number is reduced by half during the process of meiosis.
Therefore, the correct answer to question 6 is A) haploid cells.
To answer question 7, we need to understand the advantages and disadvantages of asexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves a single parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.
One disadvantage of asexual reproduction is the lack of genetic variety. Since offspring are genetically identical to the parent, there is less genetic diversity in the population. This can be disadvantageous in changing environments or when new challenges or threats arise.
Based on the given options, the correct answer to question 7 is A) Genetic variety slowly causes hundreds of species of beetles to form from a single species.
By looking at the options and understanding the concept of asexual reproduction, we can determine that this option represents a disadvantage as it highlights the slow formation of new species due to the lack of genetic variation.
