Based on the text for mosquitoes mating: 1. Describe how the pest mates. 2. Compare the genetic relationship of the parent pest and its offspring. USE THE WORD: genetically identical/different, genetic recombination
Genetic Recombination
Recombination is crucial to this process because it allows genes to be reassorted into diverse combinations. Genetic recombination is the process of combining genetic components from two different origins into a single unit. In prokaryotes, genetic recombination takes place by the unilateral transfer of deoxyribonucleic acid. It includes transduction, transformation, and conjugation. The genetic exchange occurring between homologous deoxyribonucleic acid sequences (DNA) from two different sources is termed general recombination. For this to happen, an identical sequence of the two recombining molecules is required. The process of genetic exchange which occurs in eukaryotes during sexual reproduction such as meiosis is an example of this type of genetic recombination.
Microbial Genetics
Genes are the functional units of heredity. They transfer characteristic information from parents to the offspring.

Mosquitoes Mating
Re
Mosquitoes are small flying insects that feed on human and animal blood or A
plant juices. Only female mosquitoes bite to get a blood meal for their be
growing eggs. Mosquitoes usually are considered a nuisance pest, bute
occasionally they can transmit disease.
There are about 70 species of mosquitoes in New York State. Several A
species can transmit eastern equine encephalitis (EEE, "triple E") and West
Nile virus (WNV). EEE and WNV are viral infections that can cause serious
de
illness and even death.
A.
Many mosquitoes lay their eggs in even small amounts of standing water ka
around the home. Eggs can develop in any standing water that remains for w
more than four days. Many mosquitoes breed in discarded tires. Weeds, tall th
grass and shrubbery provide an outdoor home for adult mosquitoes. d
Mosquitoes also can enter houses, apartments and buildings through o
unscreened windows and doors or through broken screens. Some m
mosquitoes are most active between dusk and dawn when the air is calm a
and the females are most likely to bite. However, other mosquitoes will feed
he
at any time of the day.
