Female fleas must continually
feed during reproduction; therefore, they can consume 150 times their body weight in blood every day.
Starting in 1958, just five years after the discovery of DNA's double - helix structure, researchers suspected that a specific gene controls the orderly pairing of wheat
chromosomes during reproduction.
The results therefore suggest that the conditions that male blue tits
experienced during reproduction are likely to affect moult and thus feather colouration, at least in their white facial feathers.
During reproduction, humans inherit two working copies of most genes — one copy, or allele, from each parent.
During reproduction, chromosome pairs normally swap genes and cancel out each other's mutations.
During reproduction, females secrete a very dense mucous through the body wall; it solidifies when getting in touch with marine water until creating then an elastic layer.
They found that,
during reproduction, methyl groups quickly vanished from Avy genes inherited from the father.
