100 points To reproduce, female elephants produce eggs and male elephants produce sperm. Offspring are produced by the fusion of an egg with a sperm cell. Which statement is true about the offspring? A. The offspring are genetically distinct from the parents because the egg and sperm are both diploid. B. The offspring are genetically identical to the parents because they are produced by sexual reproduction. C. The offspring are genetically distinct from the parents because they are produced by sexual reproduction. D. The offspring are genetically identical to the parents because the egg and sperm are both diploid.

C, The offspring are genetically distinct from the parents because they are produced by sexual reproduction.

Sexual reproduction is the fusion between an egg and a sperm cell, and each of these cells has a single set of chromosomes, a haploid. Because of this, their offspring will be a diploid organism with half of its genetic information from their mother and half from their father. The offspring's genetics will be thus unique compared to their parents', because it is a combination of both of their genetic info. If they were to be identical, we would be looking at asexual reproduction, not sexual.

i think its control and coordinate because im pretty sure thats what tissue does and the joints are what control movement and then your skeletal/ bones provides portection. hope that .

i think the answer is g1

hope i
