Basically, in three ways.
Independent orientation of the chromosomes in meiosis.
Crossing over in chromosomes in meiosis.
Random fertilization; the random mathching of any sperm/egg combination in fertilization.

Which type of reproduction results in the least amount of genetc variation?
Mitosis to produce a larger population
What is the macronucleus and micronucleus in paramecium?
The macronucleus is larger and controls all functions except reproduction. The micronucleus is smaller and controls reproduction. Some paramecium have more than one micronucleus, but all have at least one.
Bacteria are organisms that reproduce asexually asexual reproduction can be an advantage to bacteria if it enables them to?
grow larger populations more quickly
How does a tiny cell affect a larger organism?
all organisms are made of cell, and a cell contains a nucleus that controls life activities, cell reproduction and the genes.
What kinds of cells enable larger animals like humans to eat a wider variety of prey?

How many number combinations can you make from 1 - 52?
-51
Why are THERE 2 GEnder?
Biologists believe that the mixing of traits (genes) that occurs during sexual reproduction provides for a larger variety - and thus, a larger probability of survival, especially under changing environmental conditions. It is for this reason that most higher life forms use sexual reproduction. Sometimes the two genders are equivalent, in this case they are called "plus" and "minus", but in many living beings, there is a clear difference between the two genders, in this case they are called "male" and "female".
What are the particles for the nuclear fusion in stars?
A variety of different fusion reactions are possible. In our sun, which is classified as medium sized, it is fusion of hydrogen nuclei, ie protons, to form helium. In larger stars, especially red giants, larger nuclei react in fusion, so that larger and heavier nuclei get formed.
How many arrangements of numbers is possible?
There are an infinite number of possibilities based on the infinite set of numbers. However, for a finite set, there are limited possible combinations, depending on whether you can use the same numbers over again, or if they have to be distinct, or if their order makes any difference. Here's an example: For a group of THREE numbers, there is only one possible group of 3 numbers, and there are three possible groups of 2 numbers (i.e. 12, 13, 23) . Using each of three different numbers, there are 6 ordered combinations of two numbers (12, 13, 23, 21, 31, 32) and 6 possible combinations of three numbers (123, 132, 213, 231, 312, 321). If the numbers are allowed to repeat, there are 9 possible combinations of two (add 11, 22, 33) and 8 more possible combinations of three (111, 112, 113, 122, 133, 222, 223, 333) - if order matters, each triple (111) has only one possible order, each double has three (112, 121, 211). The number rapidly increases for larger numbers of possible and larger groups from those sets. The possibilities are called combinations and permutations, and are connected to the numerical property called "factorials" (a number multiplied by all smaller integers - 2 factorial is represented by "2!" and equals 2 x 1 = 2, while 3! = 3 x 2 x 1 = 6). The number of discrete sets of K numbers from N possible numbers is N! / K! x (N-K)!
Is it ever possible for the iqr to be larger than the range?
No, it is not possible.
What the function of micronucleus?
The macronucleus is larger and controls all functions except reproduction. The micronucleus is smaller and controls reproduction. Some paramecium have more than one micronucleus, but all have at least one.
What are some advantages of asexual reproduction?
Only needs one parent. Tend to grow into larger numbers.

Where is it possible to purchase a sensaphone?
Sensaphone models can be purchased directly from the manufacturer or from online retailers such as Amazon. There are a variety of models suitable for different types of applications from households, retail stores or larger structures such as warehouses and department stores.
Why is orchestra favored over band?
This is simply people's opinions. I think people prefer orchestras because there are more porfessional orchestras than professional concert bands, there is a larger variety of music for orchestra, and the orchestra can have a larger variety of instruments.
