By the 1990s there were less than 30 panthers left in the wild in Florida, and with only 30 panthers, there was less genetic diversity. The remaining panthers had a plethora (wide range) of health problems, including: parasites, heart defects, and males with poor sperm quality. In an attempt to save the panthers, eight female pumas, which are a sub-species of the Florida panther, were brought to Florida from Texas. A. Gene Flow
B. Genetic Drift

Which statement is not an accurate description of meiosis? a) meiosis produces offspring that are genetically diverse. b) meiosis produces offspring that are identical to the parent. c) in sexual reproduction half of the genetic material comes from the father (sperm) and half of the genetic material comes from the mother (egg). d) meiosis decreases the number of chromosomes by half so that when a sperm fertilizes an egg, the resulting zygote has the correct number of chromosomes.
