What constantly provides new variation for natural selection to act upon in a sexually reproducing popularion?
Firstly, mutation. In a sexually reproducing population recombination ( independent orientation of chromosomes and crossing over in meiosis and random fertilization ) is also a source of variation in populations.
Where do sexually reproducing organisms inherit their alleles from?
From their parents.
What is metagenesis in coelentrates?
The phenomenon in which one generation of certain plants and animals reproduces asexually, followed by a sexually reproducing generation. Also known as alternation of generations.
How do sexually reproducing organisms produce gametes from diploid progenitors?
Through Meiosis
The offspring of a sexually-reproducing organism receives?
half of its genetic material from each parent.
What are two main sources for genetic variation in a population?
Mutation and the genetic recombination in sexually reproducing organisms.
Why does a sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species?
Sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species in their ability to use two different sex cells.
Sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species in there ability to?
Sexually-reproducing species are able to adapt more easily than asexual-reproduciing species

Sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species in their ability to?

What is the process of plants reproducing sexually?
they multiply
If meiosis did not occur in sexually reproducing organisms?
If meiosis did not occur in sexually reproducing organisms, the chromosome number would double in each generation. Sexual reproduction results in new combinations of genetic traits.
How does fungi reproduction occurs?
by reproducing asexuallly or sexually
Where do sexually reproducing organisms inherit their alleles from?
From their parents.
In sexually reproducing organisms, genes are transferred via _______________?
The gametes.
A condition of first being capable of reproducing sexually?
puberty
What will the genetic material of a organism do when it produces sexually?
The genetic material of a sexually reproducing organism evolves for better adaptations.
