sexual & aseual reproduction
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| How is the reproduction process? | an organism passes its genetic information to its offspring. |
| what are the two main types of reproduction? | sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction |
| what is asexual reproduction | Asexual reproduction is generally used by simple organisms, such as bacteria. |
| what happens in asexual reproduction? | In asexual reproduction, an organism produces an identical copy of itself. |
| How many parents are in asexual reproduction? | one |
| witch one is faster sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction? | asexual reproduction |
| Since the members of an ________-________ population are identical, the population does not ________ survive a major change in its ___________. | Since the members of an asexually-reproducing population are identical, the population does not usually survive a major change in its environment. |
| name types of asexual reproduction? | Fission Budding Regeneration Conjugation |
| fission | a single-celled organism divides into two. |
| Budding | an offspring forms from an outgrowth of its parent. |
| Regeneration | a part of a parent organism is removed and forms into an offspring. |
| Conjugation | two bacterial cells join together, exchange genetic information, then separate. When the bacterium later divides asexually, the result is two daughter cells with genetic information that is unique from the parent cell. |
| Sexual reproduction is generally used by? | complex organisms, like humans. |
| A sexually-reproducing organism produces unique sex cells what are they called? | gametes |
| what does a gamete contain? | half of an organism's genetic material |
| in sexual reproduction what happens? | the gamete of one organism is combined with the gamete of another organism to produce a unique offspring |
| In ______ reproduction, the gamete of one organism is ______ with the _____ of another organism to produce a unique offspring. | In sexual reproduction, the gamete of one organism is combined with the gamete of another organism to produce a unique offspring. |
| Sexual reproductions requires how many parents? | Two |
| since the offspring only receive half of its genes from each parent it will not... | be identical to either parents |
| In this way, _____ reproduction produces more ______ diversity throughout a _____ than asexual reproduction. | In this way, sexual reproduction produces more genetic diversity throughout a species than asexual reproduction. |
| cell division | the process by which a cell divides into two new daughter cells |
| before it becomes too large they divide into what? | two daughter cells |
| cell ______ results in an ______ in the ratio of ______ area to volume for each daughter cell. | cell division results in an increase in the ratio of surface area to volume for each daughter cell. |
| asexual reproduction also occurs in many multicellular _____. | organisms |
