What are the offspring of sexual reproduction related to their parent?
What could be said is that the offspring will not be identical, genetically or regarding appearance; there will be variation between offspring and their sexually reproducing parents.
The offspring of a sexually-reproducing organism receives?
half of its genetic material from each parent.
What does the offspring of a sexually reproducing organism receives?
One half of each parent's chromosomes, and genetic variation, as opposed to those that reproduce asexually - the cells just split, so each generation afterward is genetically identical to the parent.
Do all living organisms reproduce offspring?
If reproduce means producing offspring/copies of itself, then yes. If reproduce means reproducing sexually (not asexually), then no. Bacteria reproduce through asexual reproduction -- making exact copies of themselves.
Can an organism reproduce sexually and asexually?
no
What is the primary cause of variation in offspring of sexually reproducing organism?
recombination of alleles
What will the offspring of an organism that reproduces sexually be like?
They will show variation, that is they will not be all exactly alike.
Variation of offspring of sexually reproducing organism is the direct result of?
Half of its genetic material from each parent. =o)
What is the cause of variation in the offspring of sexually reproducing organisms?
recombination of alleles
How are asexual produced offspring different from sexually produced offspring?
The difference is with an asexually produced organism, the organism is created using only one parent. With a sexually produced organism, the organism is produced using two parents
What are the offspring of sexual reproduction related to their parent?
What could be said is that the offspring will not be identical, genetically or regarding appearance; there will be variation between offspring and their sexually reproducing parents.
Variation in the offspring of sexually reproducing organisms is the direct result of?
b) sorting and recombining of genes
The offspring of a sexually-reproducing organism receives?
half of its genetic material from each parent.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of producing sexually?
An advantage is their offspring may be more adaptable to changes in the environment.
What does the offspring of a sexually reproducing organism receives?
One half of each parent's chromosomes, and genetic variation, as opposed to those that reproduce asexually - the cells just split, so each generation afterward is genetically identical to the parent.
What is an example of an organism that reproduces sexually and explain the diversity of their offspring?
People. And people being (acting like) people.
What is a new organism produced by one or more parents?
A new organism that is produced by a parent is called an offspring. Some organisms reproduce asexually while others reproduce sexually.
