Acouple is accidentally exposed to a high dose of x-rays by a malfunctioning plasma tv preventing random assortment and crossing over from occurring when they form gametes.
a) how would this affect their sex cells?

b) what would be the result when the couple had children?

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c

it's c. (to reduce the greenhouse effect/carbon gasses)
