Which statement best describes a population of organisms if cloning is the only method used to reproduce this population?
The answer is 2.) There would be little chance for variation within the population.
Which organisms reproduce by cloning?
virus
When do you think cloning is beneficial?
Cloning is beneficial when an animal species or other organism species is becoming extinct. By cloning them, there will be more of them now, and enough of them to reproduce and naturally restore the population.
What is artificial cloning?
When a clone is made without the use of artificial cloning. Natural cloning: Twins, mitosis, asexual reproduction Artificial cloning: SCNT, therepuetic + reproductive cloning.
What would be the impact of cloning organisms in America?
The impact of cloning organisms in America is unknown and there is no way to predict what kind of advantages and/or disadvantages there would be as a result of cloning.
Cloning results in two organisms that are?
Genetically identical.
What is the difference between clone and asexu reproduction?
Cloning is basically the asexual reproduction of identical copies of genes and organisms. Asexual reproduction is a form of reproduction which does not involve meiosis, ploidy reduction, or fertilization. Only one parent is involved in asexual reproduction. A more stringent definition is agamogenesis which refers to reproduction without the fusion of gametes. Asexual reproduction is the primary form of reproduction for single-celled organisms such the archaea, bacteria, and protists. Many plants and fungi reproduce asexually as well. While all prokaryotes reproduce asexually (without the formation and fusion of gametes), mechanisms for lateral gene transfer such as conjugation, transformation and transduction are sometimes likened to sexual reproduction. A lack of sexual reproduction is relatively rare among multicellular organisms, for reasons that are not completely understood. Current hypotheses suggest that, while asexual reproduction may have short term benefits when rapid population growth is important or in stable environments, sexual reproduction offers a net advantage by allowing more rapid generation of genetic diversity, allowing adaptation to changing environments. Cloning in Biology is the process of producing populations of genetically-identical individuals that occurs in nature when organisms such as bacteria, insects or plants reproduce asexually. Cloning in biotechnology refers to processes used to create copies of DNA fragments (molecular cloning), cells (cell cloning), or organisms. More generally, the term refers to the production of multiple copies of a product such as digital media or software.
Do humans reproduce asexual or sexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction is reproduction involving the union or fusion of a male and a female gamete. These gametes must come from two organisms, a male and a female. Asexual reproduction is reproduction through cloning or budding. Humans reproduce sexually.
Is animal cloning unnatural?
YES! Cloning of animals is a sientific man made process. In my opinion they should not mess with nature and let animals reproduce themselves. ANS2: No! There are a number of animals that reproduce by cloning. Almost all bacteria, most Protists and even animals as complex as Coelenterates reproduce by cloning...naturally. ANS3: Animal cloning is unnatural if you're talking about the manmade kind, and I agree with the ANS1, why are we wasting time , effort and $$$ on cloning things that aren't event endangered? We should probably be spending that money on other things If we really don't want certain species to go extinct
What are concerns with unregulated biotechnology experiments in cloning?
cloned organisms
Differences of cloning and selective breeding?
cloning is when you create an exact duplicate but selective breeding is when the animals reproduce to create an even better animal x
Cloning an individual usually produces organisms that?
contain identical genes
