The horse (Equus caballus) has 32 pairs of chromosomes, whereas the donkey (Equus asinus) has 31 pairs of chromosomes. How many total chromosomes would be expected in the somatic tissue of a mule, which is a hybrid of these two animals? Hint:  a hybrid donkey is created by the union of a normal gamete from a horse and a normal gamete from a donkey.  Group of answer choices 31.5 62 126 none of these is correct 63

Genetic Evolution

Sexual reproduction produces distinct population variations. Heredity determines the traits and qualities to be passed down to the progeny. Over time, this variation within-species is also affected by the process of human evolution. The study of how genetic variation leads to evolutionary changes is known as genetic evolution. If a trait helps an organism to survive and reproduce, it is more likely to be passed down the generations. It is rare that such traits result in a completely distinct set of traits in descendants than the ancestral population; this can result in the emergence of a new species.
