Only mutations which occur in the gametes. Mutations in somatic cells ( body) are not passed on to offspring. Example: A mutation in skin cells leads to skin cancer, but this cannot be passed on to offspring.
What else can I help you with?
The sex of offspring is determined by the chromosome the female parent gives true or false?
True. The sex of offspring is determined by the sex chromosome contributed by the female parent. Females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome.
Individuals must exhibit a trait in order for it to appear in their offspring true or false?
False. Traits can be inherited from parents even if they are not expressed in the parents themselves. This is due to the presence of dominant and recessive alleles that can be passed on to offspring, leading to the expression of traits that may not be visible in the parents.
Is the following sentence true or false all mutations are harmful?
False. Not all mutations are harmful. Some mutations can be beneficial or have no effect on an organism. Mutations are simply changes in the genetic material of an organism, and their impact on an organism's traits can vary.
True or false the ordered arrangement of chromosomes in gametes is the same as they were in the parent cell?
False. During meiosis, the process of cell division that produces gametes, the chromosomes are shuffled and randomly distributed, leading to genetic variation in the offspring. This results in a different arrangement of chromosomes in gametes compared to the parent cell.
Is the following statement true or false crossing over causes the offspring to be different from the parent?
True. Crossing over is a genetic process during meiosis where chromosomes exchange segments of DNA. This creates genetic variation in the offspring, making them different from their parents.
The sex of offspring is determined by the chromosome the female parent gives true or false?
True. The sex of offspring is determined by the sex chromosome contributed by the female parent. Females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome.
Heredity is the process by which sex cells from true ore false?
False. Heredity is the process by which traits are passed from parents to offspring through genes in the sex cells (sperm and egg).
Is it true or false According to natural selection inherited adaptations that aid an organisms chances of survival will be passed on to offspring?
Yes
Individuals must exhibit a trait in order for it to appear in their offspring true or false?
False. Traits can be inherited from parents even if they are not expressed in the parents themselves. This is due to the presence of dominant and recessive alleles that can be passed on to offspring, leading to the expression of traits that may not be visible in the parents.
Is Organisms can reproduce asexually by splitting in two forming buds developing spores and by producing offspring from a piece of the parent True or false?
No I can't
Is the following sentence true or false all mutations are harmful?
False. Not all mutations are harmful. Some mutations can be beneficial or have no effect on an organism. Mutations are simply changes in the genetic material of an organism, and their impact on an organism's traits can vary.

Is the following statement true or false crossing over causes the offspring to be different from the parent?
True. Crossing over is a genetic process during meiosis where chromosomes exchange segments of DNA. This creates genetic variation in the offspring, making them different from their parents.
A genetic mutation causes a temporary change to the sequences of bases in DNA true or false?
True. Genetic mutations are changes in the DNA sequence, and they can be temporary or permanent. Temporary mutations can be caused by environmental factors or errors during DNA replication, but they might not get passed on to future generations.
True or false the term bloodline accurately describes heredity because DNA is carried to offspring through the mothers blood?
False. The term bloodline does not accurately describe heredity because DNA is passed down from both parents to offspring through their genetic material (sperm and egg), not through the mother's blood. Blood does not carry genetic information in the sense of passing on hereditary traits.
What is an example of false causality?
Examples of false causality are the claims that chance, mutations or survival can drive upward evolution.
What are wholphins?
Wholphins are rare hybrid animals that result from the mating of a female common bottlenose dolphin and a male false killer whale. The offspring exhibit a mixture of physical characteristics from both parent species.
