Are genes transmitted only during sexual reproduction?
Genes can be transmitted during both sexual and asexual reproduction. During sexual reproduction, genes are combined from two parents to produce offspring with a mix of traits. Asexual reproduction can involve the direct transmission of genes from a single parent to offspring through processes like cell division.
Why do offspring produce by sexual reproduction show variation from their parents?
In sexual reproduction, there are tow parents so there is a mixture in genes. In asexual reproduction, there is one parent so looks identical to that parent
What are the passing of traits from parent to offspring?
Genes passing by sexual or asexual reproduction.
Do plant produced throught sexual reproduction will have the exact same genes as a parent?
false
Which would produce more parent characteristics Asexual or sexual reproduction?
The difference between sexual and asexual is that in sexual reproduction, there are two parents, and in asexual, there is only one. In sexual reproduction, the two parents mix up their genes and produce a mix between the two parents. Asexual reproduction produces an exact match of the parent, since there were only the genes from the one parent.
Does sexual reproduction produce more offspring than asexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction, such as binary fission, is simply a complete copy of anorganism. There is no genetic variation in the daughter organism from the primary organism. However, when sexual reproduction occurs, there are multiple parties contributing, which combines different genotypes.
In sexual reproduction what fraction of the offspring's genes is contributed by each parent?
In sexual reproduction, each parent contributes half of their genes to the offspring. This results in the offspring inheriting equal amounts of genetic information from both the mother and the father.
All copies of the single parent's genes are passed to the offspring?
In sexual reproduction, each parent contributes half of their genetic material to the offspring. This results in a unique combination of genes in the offspring rather than an exact copy of either parent's genes.
How does DNA in offspring produced by asexual reproduction compare to DNA in offspring produced by sexual reproduction?
If an offspring was produced through asexual reproduction, its genes will be exactly like its parent. This is more or less a clone of the parent. An example of this is a bacterium. If an offspring is produced through sexual reproduction, it will contain genes from both parents. (such as humans)
Is it true that sexual reproduction passes information from a single parent to one offspring?
No. Sexual reproduction passes on a random half of one parent's genetic information and a random half of the other parent's genetic information. This is achieved through meiosis. You are 50% your mom and 50% your dad by genes.
What is the basic difference between sexual and asexual reproduction?
In asexual reproduction, there is only one parent, and the offspring only receives one set of genes. It is identical to the parent. In sexually reproduction, there are two parents, and the offspring receives two sets of genes, one from each parent, which can be in any combination. The male sex cell must fertilize the female sex cell.
What is the difference between sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction in regard to passing on DNA to their offspring?
In sexual reproduction an entirely new individual is produced. The genes are not exactly the same as either parent. In asexual reproduction the new individual is exactly the same as the parent. It is a cone of the parent.
