What is the major cause of variation within species?
sexual reproduction is the major cause of variations within a specie
The process of crossing over affects the variation in living things by?
Increasing variation
Explain how a species can reproduce asexually How does this impact genetic variation?
the cell goes through mitosis (interphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase) and it splits into two identical cells (during this process the DNA is duplicated). As a result of asexual reproduction, there is no variation in population.
How does genetic variation prevent extinction of a species?
The genetic variation enable a particular species to withstand the adversities of Nature by way of selection on the basis of the principle of survival of the fittest.
Discribe what biodiversity means?
Biodiversity means the degree of variation of life. Some examples would be genetic variation in a species or ecosystem variation in a planet.
What is a major cause of variation within species?
Variation of a species can come about in many ways, but mutation is the major cause of variation in a species.
Which process produces the most variation within a species?
Variations occurs in species due to the process of "Crossing over"
Does sexual reproduction cause a narrow range of variation or a wide range of variation in species?
SIM=
Does sexual reproduction cause a narrow range or variation or a wide range of variation in species?
SIM=
How is genetic variation related to a species chance of becoming extinct?
Little or no variation could lead to failure to adapt to changing conditions. Too much variation would prevent the species from passing on beneficial traits because they would change too rapidly.
What is variation in common cause on quality assurance?
Variation in common cause in quality assurance refers to the normal, inherent variability in a process that is to be expected even when the process is under control. It is typically random and can be reduced by improving the overall process rather than identifying and addressing specific causes. Recognizing and understanding common cause variation helps organizations to establish realistic performance expectations and gauge process stability.
What are specific examples of variation within a species?
Human species, as in the variation in height.
How does variation work to help cause evolution?
You have to have variation in order to be able to have more successful variations, which succeed in evolutionary terms, and less successful variations which fail. If there were no variation in a species, there would be no natural selection.
Which variation stems from external sources and indicates that te process is out of statistical control?
Special Cause
What is the name of the process that cause a species to evolve?
natural selection
Process is in control the variations in x-bar and r between different samples of the process output are caused by which assignable causes natural variations sampling bias human error?
If the process is in control, then the variation is termed common cause or what you have stated as natural variation.
Mutations are a source of what in a species?
Genetic variation, which can lead to evoloution, and then potentially a new species.
