I'm not sure but i hope i got it right cuz i got a lot of the other ones wrong.
advantage:
there can be more apple trees with those same characteristics and nutrients
disadvantage:

i put
advantage: there is a greater yield of apple trees (kinda what u put)
disadvantage: if one becomes infected with a disease, that means the others could as well meaning they could be at higher risk of extinction

what was the percentage change one and the potato cell bursting one

for the bursting one, some ppl put bc of the cell wall or vacuole (stores excess water) but i put bc of its semi-permeable membrane, water is always moving in and out of the potato
for the percentage i got 95??
