Variation and evolution

Question

  1. A. Correct cause and effect: Mitosis maintains chromosome number; meiosis halves chromosome number. This matches Selective breeding because students must explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information.
  2. B. Reversed cause: Claiming meiosis is used for body growth. This would blur Mitosis vs meiosis instead of testing Selective breeding.
  3. C. Missing link: Claiming mitosis produces gametes. This misses the objective focus on explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information.
  4. D. Different process: It moves into a neighbouring Unit 4.6 idea rather than Variation and evolution / Selective breeding.

Answer

The correct option is Correct cause and effect: Mitosis maintains chromosome number; meiosis halves chromosome number. This matches Selective breeding because students must explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information.. It is the only option that keeps Mitosis vs meiosis separate and answers the approved learning objective in Selective breeding.

Explanation

The correct option is Correct cause and effect: Mitosis maintains chromosome number; meiosis halves chromosome number. This matches Selective breeding because students must explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information.. Correct cause and effect: Mitosis maintains chromosome number; meiosis halves chromosome number. This matches Selective breeding because students must explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information. is correct because Mitosis maintains chromosome number; meiosis halves chromosome number. The learning objective says students must explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information, so the answer must stay inside Selective breeding. The alternative options are wrong because they either claiming meiosis is used for body growth., claiming mitosis produces gametes., or drift away from mitosis questions must focus on identical cells, growth, repair, asexual reproduction, or maintained chromosome number..

Common mistake

Selective breeding common mistake 1

Giving a vague answer instead of directly addressing: Explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information..

Answer by clearly explaining how to explain benefits, risks and ethical issues of selective breeding when given appropriate information..
