Plants can use meiosis to reproduce. If you take a root from a friends plant and plant it, it will grow and be exactly like your friends. The plant will be identical because they will have exactly the same cell type.

Meiosis can also occur in a plant, though both the male and female parts of a plant are in a single flower.

What is the name of an organism that can reproduce on its own?
An organism that can reproduce on its own has asexual reproduction
How can you tell which type of sexual life cycle an organism undergoes?
The type of sexual life cycle that a eukaryotic organism has depends on the type of cell that undergoes meiosis and on when meiosis occurs.
What does structural behavior mean?
A physical characteristic that allows an organism to survive and reproduce.
Do all living things have to reproduce in order to prove that they're alive?
If it is a living organism it must reproduce itself sexually or asexually. Reproduction of the organism ( not viral hijacking of the reproductive mechanisms ) is one part of the definition of living things.
What is chemosynthetic organism?
A chemosynthetic organism uses sulfur or other elements as a source of energy.
List at least one type of organism that does not undergo meiosis?
Bacteria (prokaryotes) do not undergo meiosis. They reproduce through a process called binary fission, which is a form of asexual reproduction.
What is the importance of meiosis in sexually reproductive organism?
Meiosis is still important for the regrowth of cells in a sexually reproductive organism. For example even thought humans reproduce sexually they still have skin cells, like hair, finger nails, and even normal skin that produces new cells by meiosis.
How do multicellular organisms reproduce?
They reproduce through meiosis.
Can an organism live a health life without any cell undergoing meiosis?
Meiosis is the replication of sex cells, so if an organism doesn't want to reproduce offspring, then they can live healthily without undergoing the process of meiosis. However, mitosis is the replication of every other cell in the body, assisting with growth and repair so no organism can live a healthy life without undergoing the process of mitosis.
What is a haiku for meiosis?
Animals and plants, divide cells to reproduce, this is meiosis.
How do angiosperms reproduce sexually?
meiosis
How do eukaryotes cells reproduce?
Cells can reproduce through mitosis and meiosis.
Do hermit crabs use meiosis?
Hermit crabs use meiosis to reproduce
Why sexual reproduction requires meiosis?
The process of meiosis results in the production of gametes in which the number of chromosomes is reduced by half. During sygamy, two gametes fuse to form a new cell, and the number of chromosomes is restored to the full amount. Therefore, by coupling meiosis and syngamy, the organism ensures that the proper number of chromosomes will be maintained.
Why does an organism have to reproduce?
the organism has to reproduce otherwise the species will go extinct.
What kind of organisms exhibit gametic meiosis?
Organisms that reproduce sexually generally exhibit gametic meiosis. Organisms that reproduce through gametic meiosis are typically humans or even animals.
Why doesnt bacteria reproduce by mitosis?
it does use mitosis, it doesn't reproduce by meiosis.
