Is genetic diversity beneficial?
When all the organisms are exact genetic copies, you don't have diversity. Additionally they would all appear as identical twins. If you are talking about a food crop if a bacterial, fungal disease strikes, they may all succumb. We would be left without that food. When there is diversity, some of the organisms are resistant. The resistant organisms survive and pass the resistance on to future generations. The resistant organisms also serve as a buffer. The resistant organism doesn't come down with and, therefore, spread the condition.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of asexual reproduction compared with sexual reproduction?
advantages of asexual is that it reproduces easily by itself and it has 1 parent cellSome advantages of asexual reproduction are- Large numbers of offspring are reproduced very quickly from only oneparent when conditions are favourable.- Large colonies can form that can out - complete other organisms for nutrients and water.- Large numbers of organisms mean that species may survive when conditions or the number of predators change.- Energy is not required to find a mate.Some disadvantages of asexual reproduction are- Offspring are genetic clones. A negative mutation can make a sexually produced organisms susceptible to disease and can destroy large numbers of offspring.- Some methods of asexual reproduction produce offspring that are close together and compete for food and space.- Unfavourable conditions such as extreme temperatures can wipe out entire colonies.
How do batteries affect the environment?
Batteries comprise of many toxic chemicals and elements such as lead, mercury, nickel & cadmium. If not properly disposed, these elements enter the environment and accumulate over generations causing disease, defects and poisoning. When incinerated, some types of metals found in batteries may be released into the air, and that is the air us humans breathe. Those metals can also concentrate in the ash which is produced by the combustion process.
Advantages and disadvantages of mitosis in multicellular organism?
Some disadvantages of asexual reproduction are- Offspring are genetic clones. A negative mutation can make a sexually produced organisms susceptible to disease and can destroy large numbers of offspring.- Some methods of asexual reproduction produce offspring that are close together and compete for food and space.- Unfavorable conditions such as extreme temperatures can wipe out entire colonies.its not efficientif the parent is ill or has a disease then the offspring will have it as wellgenerally leads to overcrowdingIn Asexual reproduction, an exact copy is made of the parent. So, there is no inherited variability and everyone is a "clone." So, if the environment changes and people need to adapt, there will be no available mutations to let evolution take its course, and the species will most likely die out.There are no variations in offspring except those caused by mutations, so, if the environment changes, there might be little chance of any offspring surviving.
What is 3 types of CVD?
Cardiovascular disease is more commonly known as heart diseases. but one of the most common heart disease is coronary artery disease.
Why cant you reproduce if you have celiac disease?
You can reproduce.
Which of the following best explains why species that reproduce sexually have an advantage in a rapidly changing environment as compared to species that reproduce asexually?
Organisms that reproduce asexually pass on a duplicate of their genetic material, and don't have to worry about the random outcome of allele frequencies from crossing over. Asexual reproduction occurs more quickly because the organism doesn't have to find a mate to reproduce. So asexual organisms don't have to worry about impressing anybody. All of these qualities that asexual reproducers possess are great if the environment they live in is unchanging. But what happens if the environment decides to change like it inevitably does. Well if the asexual reproducers aren't fit for the environment they die and so will the rest of their offspring because they inherited the exact same disabilities that the parent organism had. If the parent of seven offspring dies because they was not adapt for the changes that occurred in the environment then the offspring still have a chance for survival if they inherited a trait from the other parent that would help them survive in the changing environment. Another reason why sexual reproduction is so beneficial is that it is better at combating disease.
How does a disease kill you?
Most disease causing organisms reproduce inside you and produce toxins.
Why is increased variation an advantage to a species?
Because if all of the individuals had the same genetic information then if the species was introduced to a new disease or environment the individuals have the possibility of all dying. If a select few individuals had different DNA that allowed them to be resistant to a disease then they would be able to survive and save the species from extinction.
How do Viral infections reproduce?
It has to have a host cell to reproduce then it kills that cell becausethere are so many viral disease in side the host cell. The Viral disease will continue you to kill host cell until you get an antibiotic
Why are leeches important?
Some leeches that are allowed to reproduce in a man-made environment are free of all disease. Some people use them as therapy to remove blood from the body so you will reproduce new fresh red blood cells and be stronger and more refreshed.
An infection disease is a disease that?
Not to be confused with a contagious disease, a infectious disease is one that infects cells and can reproduce within it via its own DNA structure. A contagious disease is one that can travel from one host to another.
What features of prokaryotes make them a pontential bioterrorism threat?
Pathogenic prokaryotes release toxins in the body or endospores in the body that leads to a homeostatic imbalance in the body causing disease and possibly death. Prokaryotes have a cell wall and some prokaryotes such as gram-negative bacteria have lipopolysaccarides that are very toxic to the body causing a homeostatic imbalance/disease resulting in death. When you force contact of pathogens to other humans that have developed anti-biotic resistance this pathogen can be extremely contagious and wipe out a portion of the population.

What disease will cause through environment?
cold
Does mad cow disease affect the environment?
No.
Which of these conditions qualify a disease to be termed infectious?
an organism that can reproduce itself in a host
What is a disease that is spread from one living thing to another through the environment?
a communicable disease
