No. There is no correlation between physical traits and sexual orientation.


Would you get a variety of offspring traits during asexual or sexual reproduction?

Sexual reproduction promotes variation.

How do parents pass traits?

through sexual reproduction


How are plants different traits related to sexual reproduction?

Plants with different traits related to sexual reproduction can have varying mechanisms for attracting pollinators, mating systems, and seed dispersal strategies. These traits can influence the genetic diversity of the population and the adaptability of the species to changing environments. Additionally, different reproductive traits can contribute to the evolution and speciation of plant species.


How do sexual and asexual reproduction relate to genetic variability and population growth?

Asexual reproduction makes offspring that are identical to the parent(s). Sexual reproduction takes 1/2 of the traits from one parent and the other half from the other. Sexual reproduction causes variance because of the interaction of dominant and recessive traits and some cases blended traits.


What are the passing of traits from parent to offspring?

Genes passing by sexual or asexual reproduction.


What are the traits passed from parents to progeny?

its sexual reproduction


How does sexual reproduction affect genetic traits?

Asexual reproduction impacts genetic variation by limiting future genetic change to mutations only; sexual reproduction allows future generation to mix in a nearly infinite range of phenotypes (external appearance).


Why is each individual by sexual reproduction unique?

each individual has its own set of traits


How does sexual reproduction contribute to increasing the variance of traits within a population?

Sexual reproduction increases the variance of traits within a population by combining genetic material from two parents, leading to offspring with unique combinations of traits. This genetic diversity allows for a wider range of adaptations to environmental changes, increasing the overall fitness of the population.


Why does cloning tend to pass on desired traits more efficiently than sexual reproduction?

Cloning produces genetically identical copies of an organism, so the offspring inherits all the desirable traits of the parent. In sexual reproduction, offspring inherit a mix of genes from both parents, increasing the variability of traits and potentially diluting the desired characteristics. This makes cloning more effective at preserving and passing on specific traits.
