double than that in the parent​

Answer 1

Answer:

option b is correct

hope it helps

Answer 2

Correct option is (c) genetic material of two parents of same species is inherited in offsprings.

In the case of sexual reproduction, genetic material of offspring comes from both ovum and sperm. This is the reason for variation of offsprings.

Moreover, process of formation of sex cells also witness crossing over, which further increases variation.

Mating generally occurs in members of same species for production of fertile offspring. Offsprings of different species do not have either long lifespan or fertility.
