In a sexual reproduction does all of the genetic information have to come from one parent?
No, in sexual reproduction genetic information comes from both parents. Each parent contributes half of their genetic material through the gametes (sperm and egg), which combine to form an offspring with a unique combination of genetic traits. This allows for genetic diversity and variation in offspring.
What does an offspring of sexual reproduction inherit from a parent?
the offs genetic material comes from parents. for example, in case of human females one X chromosome comes from her mother & other from her father.
Differences between sexual and asexual reproduction?
Sexual Reproduction : When two organisms have sex to reproduce. Example : humans, mammals, etc. Asexual Reproduction : When it's only one organism reproducing without the help of another organism. Example : Flowers, Some plants, even some fish. Hope that helped :)
Why it is important for animals to reproduce sexually?
For external reproduction, plants that live in moist environments, need water to transport their gametes to enable sperm and egg cells to meet. For internal fertilization, the water holds enough nutrients to support and hold the embryo in the female.
Why is vegetative propagation not called reproduction?
It all comes down to a small difference in meaning of the words. By definition, propagation is the multiplication of plant materials via seed or any vegetative method (cutting, tissue culture etc.). It therefore encompasses both sexual (seed) and asexual methods of multiplication. Pure asexual reproduction results in plants with the same genetic make up as the parent plant (often called daughter plants), whereas sexual propagation via seed results in hybrid offspring which has the combined genetic information from both parents. Reproduction is more commonly associated with animal multiplication, which for the most part is the increasing of a population via sexual means (although there are a few exceptions to this). Reproduction as it is sexual results in offspring which inherit traits from both parents.
Asexual reproduction is represented by?
The method of reproducing offspring by only one parent is called asexual reproduction. All of the genetic information comes from a single organism. This is represented by vegetable and plant reproduction.
Which statement best describes this pattern of reproduction?
All genetic material comes from one parent

In sexual reproduction what fraction of the offspring's genes is contributed by each parent?
Depending on the type of organism and how many chromosomes it has, all of them come from the parent when the organism splits in the process of mitosis.
When sperm and egg combine what percentage of the genetic information comes from each parent?
50% from each parent in other words 23 chromosomes donated per parent.
How does the offspring of asexual reproduction differ from the offspring of sexual reproduction?
Offspring from sexual reproduction have combined DNA from each of their parents. They are varied, as in a mixture of both parents. Example: if two bean plants, one tall and one short, sexually reproduce, the genotype will be Tt and offspring will most likely be tall (phenotype). Offspring from asexual reproduction does not vary. It is an exact copy of its parent organism, a clone, if you will. Example: If a short bean plant--a complete bean plant--asexually reproduces, it will have a genotype tt, (phenotype short) offspring that looks identical to it. I'm in 7th grade biology right now, and we learned this in December. Hope I helped!:) BvR
Why is the offspring identical to parent in asexual reproduction?
Because the DNA is replicated exactly from the parent to the daughter. However, there is the mixing of the DNA, because if there wasn't you'd has some serious genetic issues, so every once in awhile, asexually reproduce organisms will do some mix-up or mutate. However, for the most part, it's just a plain photocopy, and that's all that you've got.
In sexual reproduction offspring are genetically different from the parents. This is because?
Each parent contributes only half of their genetic material to the offspring and the merging of genetic material from each parent may result in a traits different from what the generic material invoked in each parent.
Which of these statements correctly describes a difference between asexual and sexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction takes place mostly in plants.this is when the flower's pollen reaches the ovule in the stigma and fertilizes it.sexual reproduction as in humans involve 2 organism usually of the same species partaking in sexual intercourse with the male depositing sperm on the female's vagina in the hope of fertilizing the egg.one main difference between asexual and sexual reproduction is that asexual does not enable variation as sex cells come from the same organism(haemophrodite) and sex cells in sexual reproduction comes from 2 organisms producing a unique individual.
