Why variation is important?
Variation is important because it produces species with different gene combinations which result in the new offspring to become more immune to other dieseases.
Asexual reproduction increases genetic variation-the raw material on which natural selection operates?
Asexual reproduction decreases genetic variation which is the raw material on which natural selection operates. This is because asexual reproduction produces identical offspring to the parent.
Which produces genetic variation asexual or sexual reproduction?
both
What is it called when an organism produces all of its offspring in a single event?
semelparity
What process produces offspring from pinched off part of the parent?
Its called budding.
Which cross would produce the least phenotypic variation?
There are two choices that produce the least phenotypic variation. AA times aa produces only Aa offspring. AA times Aa produces and AA and Aa offspring.
Why does asexual reproduction produce no variation in offspring?
Asexual production is when there is one parent that produces offspring that are identical to the parent. Basically a copy of the parents DNA.
Why cross pollination produces more genetic variation in the offspring than self pollination produces?
Cross-pollination produces more genetic variation in offspring because it is a different set of DNA that is breeding with the parents DNA to produce the offspring (known as sexual reproduction). In asexual reproduction, the parent plant uses a clone DNA to self pollinate thus creating an exact copy of the parent. Asexual reproduction inhibits genetic variation because the offspring will never develop mutations that could help natural selection.

Asexual reproduction decreases genetic variation which is the raw material on which natural selection operates. This is because asexual reproduction produces identical offspring to the parent.
Sporulation produces less offspring than budding?
No, sporulation produces more offspring.
What Produces offspring's?
Breading
What can cause variation within a species?
Reproduction produces variation in population gene pools. Every time organisms reproduce, be this sexually or asexually, the genome of the offspring is slightly offset compared to that of its parent(s). Additional factors in this may be mutagenic influences in the environment, such as radiation.
This is the generation that produces the offspring.?
Pa
This is the generation that produces the offspring?
Pa
What does meiosis introduce into the daughter cells that Mitosis does not?
variationvarietyMeiosis introduces genetic variation. Mitosis produces daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell. However, meiosis produces offspring with half the genetic material from each parent - and therefore much more diversity.
What is a reproductive strategy?
The way a species produces offspring
