<span>b.internal fertilization
</span>Sexual reproduction provides genetic variation because the sperm and egg that are produced contain different combinations of genes than the parent organism. Sexual reproduction involves meiosis which is the process of a cell doubling its DNA, shuffling its genes and then dividing the shuffled DNA among four cells.<span>Each resulting cell, or gamete from meiosis has only half the amount of DNA as the parent cell. So in order to form a new organism, two gametes, sperm and egg, must fuse, further mixing the genes to produce more genetic variation.</span>
Answer:
the correct answers are C and D: "<em>Both partners are able to grow on substrates on which each would not be able to grow on their own</em>", and "<em>The fungi receive carbohydrates and, in some cases nitrogen, from the algae, while the algae gain a "home" that anchors them on the substrate</em>".
Explanation:
Lichens are the result of a symbiotic association between algae and a fungus. These two organisms must cooperate to survive in places under certain inhospitable conditions, where otherwise, they would not be able to survive by themselves. Algaes are the photosynthetic organisms that provide carbohydrates to fungus. These last ones, get the carbon and energy they need to grow, and in exchange, they protect the algae from dehydration and radiation, and they might also provide minerals for their survival. Algae can also get a way to get attached to the substrate. When instead of regular algae, there is a prokaryotic cyanobacterium, these can also supply with fix nitrogen to fungus, in the form of nitrogenous compounds.
Plants, humans, animals, and microorganisms is the answer to this question
Answer:
Technology helps is by providing us with tools to pinpoint high and low spots in the ocean, it also helps us by giving us the tools we need to be able to search and find animals/plants in the ocean and then test them to see how they live/feed in the ocean.
