Asexual reproduction

Ace your homework & exams now with Quizwiz!

List six types of asexual reproduction

Fission, budding, cloning, vegetative reproduction, mitotic cell division, and regeneration

When offspring inherit all of their DNA from one parent, they are what?

Genetically identical

Because the offspring of asexual reproduction inherit all there DNA from one parent, they are genetically what to each other and their parents?

Identical

Define asexual reproduction

One parent organism produces offspring without meiosis and fertilization

Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to each other and their what? This results in minimal genetic what with in a population?

Parent Variation

True or false. Many unicellular eukaryotes reproduce by dividing into two offspring through mitosis in subdivision. This form of reproduction is known as my ptotic cell division

True

True or false. Meiosis and fertilization are not a part of asexual reproduction

True

True or false. Some animals can grow a new Limb in a process called regeneration

True

Identify the two minute vantages for organisms that reproduce asexually

- Able to reproduce without a mate - Able to reproduce very rapidly

Budding

A type of asexual reproduction in which an offspring grows out of the parent organism.

Explain by the offspring of asexual reproduction are genetically identical to each other and to their parent

All the DNA comes from one parent

In all types of white, one parent organism produces offspring without meiosis or fertilization?

Asexual reproduction

In what, one parent organism produces offspring without meiosis and fertilization?

Asexual reproduction

Vegetative reproduction

Asexual reproduction by plants

Regeneration

Asexual reproduction in which a new organism grows from a piece of its parent

In what, a new organism grows on the body of its parent by mitosis and cell division?

Budding

In WHAT, a new organism grows on the body of its parent by mitosis and cell division. When the blood becomes WHAT enough it can break from the parent and live on its own.

Budding Large

Fission

Cell division in prokaryotes

Because all of the clones what comes from one parent, the clone is a genetic copy of its parent?

Chromosome/DNA

A type of asexual reproduction that produces identical individuals from a cell or cluster of cells taken from a multicellular organism is called what?

Cloning

What is a type of asexual reproduction developed by scientist and performed in laboratories? It produces what individuals for myself or for my cluster of cells taken from a multicellular organism?

Cloning Identical

During fission, DNA is what and the cell splits to form two identical offspring. The original cell no longer exist.

Copied

Using a cloning method called what, plant growers and scientist can use a Meristem to make a copy of a plant with desirable traits?

Culture/Tissue culture

Many Unicellular WHAT reproduce by mitotic cell division. In this type of asexual reproduction, an organism forms to offspring through mitosis and what?

Eukaryotes Cell division (cytokinesis)

True or False. A disadvantage of asexual reproduction is that the organisms can reproduce without using the time and energy to find a mate

False. Advantage

True or false. Some animals have been cloned use in the cytoplasm from a cell in one parent

False. DNA

True or false. cell division in prokaryotes is known as mitotic cell division

False. Fission

True or false. In all types of sexual reproduction offspring are produced by one parent organism

False. In all types of asexual reproduction

True or false. Cloning produces identical individuals from a cell or cluster of cells taken from a Unicellular organism

False. Multicellular organism

Cell division in prokaryotes is known as what?

Fission

Asexual reproduction enables organisms to reproduce without a what?

Mate

Many unicellular eukaryotes reproduce by dividing into two offspring through mitosis and cell division. This form of reproduction is known as what?

Mitotic cell division

Genetic changes, called what, can occur and then be passed to offspring; this can affect the offspring's ability to survive?

Mutations

Some animals have been cloned using the what from a cell in one parent?

Nucleus

Asexual reproduction also enables some organisms to rapidly produce a large number of what?

Offspring

Explain how a plant cloning is useful for farmers and scientists

Offspring produced through cloning are sure to have desirable traits

Potential

Possibility

Many animals can WHAT damage or loss body parts? This is not reproduction; offspring/organisms or not produced.

Regenerate

An animal what, a new animal grows from a piece of its parent?

Regeneration

What occurs when an offspring grows from a piece of its parent?

Regeneration

See stars, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, and planarians can what through regeneration?

Reproduce

Genetic variation is important because they can get organisms a better chance of what if you environment changes?

Surviving

Culture

The process of growing a living tissue in a laboratory

Cloning

The process of making identical individuals

Asexual reproduction

The production of offspring by one parent without meiosis and fertilization

Some plants can be cloned from just a few cells using a technique that makes a what?

Tissue culture

True or false. A form of asexual reproduction in which offspring grow from a part of a parent plant is called vegetative reproduction

True

True or false. A hydra grows a new hydra on its body using a form of asexual reproduction called Budding

True

What is a form of asexual reproduction in which offspring grow from a part of a parent plant?

Vegetative Reproduction

A form of asexual reproduction in which offspring grow for me part of a parent plant is called what?

Vegetative reproduction
