Water's polarity makes it an excellent solvent for salts, like sodium chloride, as other substances required by cells to carry out metabolic processes.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
First, the image tells that chromosomes are made up of genes or that genes are located on chromosomes. It further showed that genes are translated as proteins in the cell and this protein respectively control the expression of traits.
Secondly, it also showed that during sexual reproduction, the offspring produced usually have the same proteins as the parent and therefore have exactly the same traits as the parent. Only one parent is needed for asexual reproduction.
<u>However, two parents are needed for sexual reproduction where each parent donate chromosomes containing gene to the genome of their offpsring. The mixture of genes ensures that the offspring look different from the parent.</u>
<em>The image further showed that asexual reproduction does not lead to any variation while sexual reproduction leads to variation of the offpsring from their parents.</em>

Explanation:
<span>DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic
acid. The deoxy- in the DNA is a short term for deoxyribose. The nucleic acid
molecule has three parts; sugar, phosphate and a base. The phosphate in the DNA
acts as a backbone of the molecule. It is also responsible for the DNA’s
‘double-helix’ structure. The base has four codes namely adenine, thymine,
cytosine and guanine. Adenine and thymine are bse pairs whereas cytosine and
guanine are base pairs. They are not to be interchanged. Resulting in one cause
mutation in the gene. </span>
