Human cells have 46 chromosomes, except gametes (eggs and sperm), which have 23. A human offspring has 23 chromosomes from the father and 23 from the mother.
sexual reproduction leads to genetic variations in the progeny. It helps to create organisms with better adaptability to the prevailing environmental conditions.
The plural of progeny can be progeny or progenies.Like "offspring" progeny can refer to one person (child) or several (children).
His wife suspected that their progeny would all have large noses like his. The progeny of the original settlers built communities throughout the valley. The queen expected that her progeny, in their time, would likewise become monarchs of the realm.
Sexual reproduction is great asset to the nature. In asexual reproduction you will get the exact replica of the original organism. You will get the new type of organism by chance only. In sexual reproduction, you get the new types of organism, almost invariably. Half of the chromosomes come from the female and half of the chromosomes come from the male. That happens through the process of meiosis. There is random assortment of the chromosomes. You can have numerous types of progeny. The better progeny is produced. so the nature is doing only one business. Nature wants better and still better progeny. After you produce the offsprings, nature loses interest in you.
Sexual reproduction is important to avoid genetic monotony the result of asexual reproduction where generation after generation exactly identical progeny develops sexual reproduction produces an endless variety of organisms because each organism develops from a unique set of characters coming from different parents.
Cancer comes about because of a genetic alteration to a cell. Since cancer depends upon genetics, it is inherited by progeny, like any other genetic trait.
genetic monotony is the result of asexual reproduction which generation after generation exactly identical progeny develops
The progeny or descendants of a person, animal, or plant considered as a group.
Progeny
sexual reproduction leads to genetic variations in the progeny. It helps to create organisms with better adaptability to the prevailing environmental conditions.
In sexually reproducing organisms the progeny receive 1/2 genetic material from the female and 1/2 genetic material from the male and this would insure some genetic variation aside from all the other genetic variation methods. In asexual reproduction the progeny inherit 100% of the genetic material and are, to an extent, closes of the progenitor organism.
its sexual reproduction
Multiple factor inheritance
the progeny of each cellular replication gets the same genetic information
DNA is made up of genetic material.Genetic research is a popular field nowadays.
In a test cross, an individual with a dominant phenotype is crossed with a homozygous recessive individual to determine the genotype of the dominant individual. In a back cross, an individual is crossed with one of its parents or an individual with a similar genotype to assess genetic linkage or to maintain a specific trait in offspring.
The plural of progeny can be progeny or progenies.Like "offspring" progeny can refer to one person (child) or several (children).
