reproduction in which cells from two parents unite, producing offspring that share traits from both parents   sexual reproduction  
🗑
reproduction that does not involve union of sex cells and in which one parent produces offspring identical to itself   asexual reproduction

🗑
green plants, algae and some bacteria need carbon dioxide gas in addition to   oxygen  
🗑
cells of most living things are made of approximately   70% water  
🗑
energy giving nutrients such as sugars starches and fiber are called   carbohydrates
