What is a single organism that reproduces an exact copy of itself that starts with an A called?

Amoeba It's a Protist. It reproduces asexually.


Does an amoeba need to be fertilized to reproduce?

No, an amoeba doesn't need fertilization to reproduce. An amoeba reproduces asexually.


Can an amoeba reproduce?

Yes an AMEBA (you spelled it wrong) can reproduce. It splits into two halfs and after it splits in two the parent is no longer in existence. An ameba reproduces every ten to twenty minutes


When an amoeba reproduces the parent cell ceases to exist?

That's false. The parent continues on with a small part of itself pinched off and developing independently as the "offspring". The "parent" amoeba can reproduce repeatedly just like most organisms.


How does an aneba reproduce?

An amoeba reproduces by simply dividing -- splitting into two identical pieces (called binary fission). In this process, the nucleus divides by a means known as mitosis.


How is cell theory applicable to human beings and amoeba?

Cell theory states that plants and animals are composed of cells. Humans are composde of trillions of cells and amoeba is composed of only single cell. The cell theory also states that every cell comes from pre-existing cells. Humans, through sexual reproduction(fusion of two cells - male gamete called sperm and female gamete called ova), reproduces and amoeba, through asexual reproduction(binary fission), reproduces its own kind.


Does an amoeba divide in half?

Yes, an amoeba reproduces asexually by a process called binary fission, where it splits in half to produce two daughter cells. Each daughter cell receives a copy of the parent cell's genetic material.


How do amoebas do reproduction?

the amoeba reproduces by completely splitting its body in half. It actually splits into two exact copies of itself by splitting its nucleus into two halves with each half going to the daughter cells.


Does leishmania reproduce through binary fission or multiple fission?

The amoeba usually reproduces asexually by a process called binary fission (splitting in two), in which the cytoplasm simply pinches in half and pulls apart to form two identical organisms (daughter cells). This occurs after the parent amoeba's genetic (hereditary) material, contained in the nucleus, is replicated and the nucleus divides (a process known as mitosis). Thus, the hereditary material is identical in the two daughter cells. If an amoeba is cut in two, the half that contains the nucleus can survive and form new cytoplasm. The half without a nucleus soon dies. This demonstrates the importance of the nucleus in reproduction. Balaji. J M.Sc Microbiology

Amoebas reproduce by means of?

Amoebas reproduce by binary fission, a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells. This is a form of asexual reproduction commonly observed in unicellular organisms like amoebas.
