How could many cells contain copies of the nucleic acid from one virus?
The cells could have all been produced via asexual reproduction from a single virus cell, or have been rroduced for by normal reproduction. In this sense, the daughter cells would contain the same nucleic aid, as they come from the same virus cell.
What are some advantages for sexual reproduction?
keeps plants life cycle alive ^what the heck kind of answer is that?!? go educate yourself on plant sex! plants can produce both asexually and sexually, and advantages of sexual reproduction are: -genetic variation (genetic uniformity of asexual plants puts them at risk for extinction if a catastrophic event occured, i.e. climate change or a new strain of disease) -seeds produced by sexual reproduction can be dispersed to more locations and grow in more favorable environments -seed dormancy allows the plant to survive until bad environment conditions are reversed
Where does an organics produced by sexual reproduction get its chromosomes from?
In sexual reproduction, an organism inherits its chromosomes from both parents. Each parent contributes half of the total number of chromosomes required for the offspring. These chromosomes contain the genetic information necessary for the development and characteristics of the organism.
Why plants do not make their gametes by meiosis?
plants make their gametes by mitosis. This is because in meiosis the daughter cells only contain half the number of gametes. Plants reproduce by asexual reproduction, so the cells will be identical to the plant. This is done by mitosis
What does genetic information in DNA do?
The genes are the chemical "blueprints" to create copies of organisms, and more specifically to be carried in the haploid sex cells that form the offspring in sexual reproduction. The chromosomes formed by genes contain all the information to create a copy of the parent organism, or in the case of sexual reproduction, a version of both parents.
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)
What type of reproduction enables evolution?
sexual reproduction because asexual reproduction results in an organism that is identical to the parent cell which does not allow for diversity. diversity allows for evolution. sexual reproduction results in offspring that are not identical and may contain traits that are better adapted to survive in their environment.
Why is sexual reproduction more advantageous than cloning?
Sexual reproduction causes the child to be somewhat different from the parents, which might be advantageous in terms of adapting to the environment. A clone will be a precise copy of the parent, which is bad news if the environment is changing.
How Platyhelminthes reproduce?
Both by asexual fragmentation ( a type of piece reproduction ) and sexual reproduction. Most flat worms are hermaphrodites and contain both male and female genitalia.
What is asexually reproduction?
While most plants exclusively produce seeds through pollination. Some plants have another way to reproduce themselves besides producing seeds (sometimes inside a fruit or a cone). One example is the strawberry plant which produces strawberries which contain seeds, but also produces shoots which essentially contain clones of the motherplant. When a clone grows enough roots the connecting part (like an umbilical cord) dies off and the mother plant has succesfully reproduced itself asexually. Some trees and shrubs use root shoots underground to essentially do the same as my example of a strawberry plant. Sexual reproduction always needs a male flower to pollinate a female flower through insects or wind for example. When the blooming time is at the end the male flower dies and the female flower transforms into a seed-containing 'fruit'. All other forms of reproduction in plants is asexual.
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.
Are all fungi diploid and do they contain chromosomes from both parents?
No - most fungi have both a diploid and haploid stage in their lifecycle. Some fungi undergo asexual reproduction (which only involves one parent organism) and others undergo sexual reproduction.
How could many cells contain copies of the nucleic acid from one virus?
The cells could have all been produced via asexual reproduction from a single virus cell, or have been rroduced for by normal reproduction. In this sense, the daughter cells would contain the same nucleic aid, as they come from the same virus cell.
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.
Does asexual contain one eggs?
yes
What is bisexual reproduction?
I think you mean asexual reproduction, which is when an animal can make babies without mating. Like, when some kinds of turkey are left alone without any male turkeys, sometimes they will lay eggs which contain sickly male turkeys. This is according to wikipedia. Bisexual reproduction is just two bi people gettin' it on.
