Text SolutionText solutionverified iconVerified

Crossing over during meiosis and random fertilization of male and female gametes add genetic diversity to sexually reproducing organisms. The progeny of sexually reproducing organisms carry parental as well as new genetic combination and therefore, have new phenotypic traits along with parental ones. Asexual reproduction skips meiosis and fertilization of male and female gametes and single parent cell is involved in reproduction. Therefore, asexually reproducing organism produces genetically identical progeny i.e. clone.

  1. WE WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO PHYSICALLY MOVE TROPOMYOSIN AWAY FROM THE BINDING SITE THAT MYOSIN IS LOOKING FOR.
  2. WE CAN USE TROPONIN TO GET THE JOB DONE
  3. TROPOMYOSIN CANNOT BE MOVED
