Here are some examples of animals undergoing parthenogenesis:
Reptiles
Most reptiles reproduce sexually, but parthenogenesis has been observed in certain species of rock lizards, geckos, whiptails[1], and Komodo Dragons.
Insects
Honey bees, parasitic wasps, fire ants (Wasmannia auropunctata).
Mammals
In April 2004, scientists at Tokyo University of Agriculture used parthenogenesis to successfully create fatherless mice.

∙ 13y agoParthenogenesis is the reproduction from an ovum without fertilization.
Literally, "Virgin creation".
Parthenos = virgin
genesis=creation/production

Why parthenogenesis occur mostly in summer?
why parthenogensis occur mostly in summer ?
Which organisms are reproducing asexually?
There are tons of organisms that reproduce asexually. As for ANIMALS - A lot of species of fish do (some sharks partake in parthenogenesis - a type of asexual reproduction), some species of wasps, whiptail lizards, sea anemones, coral, starfish, snails. All fungi, bacteria, Archaea, Protist and amoebas reproduce asexually. Some plants are capable of reproducing asexually, such as strawberry, onions and potatoes.
What are 5 different ways an organism can reproduce sexually?
i knew only one... in UNICELLULAR organisms, they reproduce sexually by simple cell division.
Do unicellular organisms undergo meiosis?
NO NYCgirl_1 edit: Unicellular organisms reproduce asexually but creating an exact replica of their nucleus and split in half. A very famous example of this is Ameobas. They split directly down the middle creating a clone of themselves, and therefore reproducing asexually
Does everything use respiration?
All eukaryotic organisms that have mitochondria can use the process of cellular respiration to provide energy. Plants and some other organisms that have chloroplasts can also use photosynthesis.
What organisms demonstrate parthenogenesis?
Parthenogenesis is a type of asexual reproduction where there is no fertilization needed. Some organisms that demonstrate this are komodo dragons and water fleas.
Is parthenogenesis a type of asexual reproduction?
CYTOLOGISTS and others commonly refer to parthenogenesis as asexual reproduction.
Has anyone ever had gotten pregnant by parthenogenesis?
Parthenogenesis has never occurred in humans, and is highly unlikely.
Is an butterfly an parthenogenesis?
Although there are some insects that can reproduce through parthenogenesis, such as some species of ants and bees, the butterfly is not one of them.
How do you get pregnant without conceiving?
parthenogenesis
What is an example of Parthenogenesis?
An example of non-viable parthenogenesis is common among domesticated honey bees.
Is the statement parthenogenesis is the process of shedding the exoskeleton true or false?
It's false. Parthenogenesis - is the ability of an animal or organism to reproduce without mating.
How do organisms make more similar organisms?
There are two ways of reproduction, asexual and sexual reproduction. Similar organisms reproduce when organisms reproduce asexually because only one parent is involved in this type of reproduction and so there is no mixing of genetic material and exact copy of parent reproduces. Common methods of asexual reproduction are: budding, binary fission, multiple fission, parthenogenesis, etc.
What has the author Hans Winkler written?
Hans Winkler has written: 'Parthenogenesis und Apogamie im Pflanzenreiche' -- subject(s): Apogamy, Parthenogenesis in plants
What is the name of parthenogenesis?
Parthenogenesis is the name of a specific field. In other words, this is the only name for this kind of process. Parthenogenesis is nothing more than the process which allows a female to reproduce without engaging in sex with a male. It occurs in plants and animals, never in humans.
Parthenogenesis is a method of?
Parthenogenesis is a type of asexual reproduction, meaning the egg doesnâ??t have to be fertilized to make a new offspring. This process is naturally occurring in certain animals, as well as plants.
When an organism hatches from an unfertilized egg has occurred?
parthenogenesis
