An organism that reproduces sexually has a diploid number of 40 How many chromosomes will a gamete of this organism have?
20
How are sexual and asexual reproduction different from each other?
Asexual reproduction is where an organism uses methods such as budding or splitting. In asexual reproduction, it only involves one organism reproducing others of its species with no male and female sex cells. Sexual reproduction involves 2 organisms that use male and female sex cells to fertilize the eggs and reproduce sexually.An example of an organism that reproduces asexually would be a sea sponge.An example of an organism that reproduces sexually are humans or any other mammals.
Describe the structures of Chlamydomonas and Volvox and contrast how they reproduce?
Chlamydomonas are single-celled organism with 2 apical flagella which are absorbed before cell division. Volvox are multicellular organisms that have 2 cell types. They are composed of about 2000 somatic cells that resemble Chlamydomonas and form a spherical shell that also moves the organism using the flagella. Inside the shell resides gonidia which can divide to form a new organism. Also, the somatic cells that resemble Chlamydomonas can not divide like Chlamydomonas, thus the importance of the gonidia.
In sexual reproduction how many cells join to make a new organism?
In sexual reproduction, two specialized sex cells called gametes (sperm and egg) join together to form a new organism. This process is called fertilization and results in the formation of a zygote, which contains the combined genetic material of both parents.
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.
Are human body gamete cells haploid or diploid?
From a text book.. diploid cell- In an organism that reproduses sexually, a cell containing two homologous sets of chromosomes, one set of inherited from each parent; a 2n cell haploid cell- In the life cycle of an organism that reproduces sexually, a cell containing a single set of chromosomes; an n cell ...diploid?
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.
What type of cells are produced in the male reproductive system of a sexually reproducing organism?
sperm
Where do new cells come from as an organism grows?
New cells come from cell division, where existing cells replicate and divide to create more cells as an organism grows.
Why do cells divide as an organism grows?
Cells divide as an organism grows to increase the number of cells in the body, allowing for growth and development of tissues and organs. This process also helps in the repair and regeneration of damaged or old cells, ensuring the overall health and function of the organism.
When do cells reproduce?
Cells reproduce through the process of cell division, typically during the cell cycle. In multicellular organisms, cell reproduction occurs as part of growth, repair, and maintenance processes. Some cells, such as stem cells, have the ability to continuously divide throughout an organism's lifespan.
How do Didinum Nasutum reproduce?
Didinum nasutum reproduces asexually by binary fission, where the organism splits into two identical daughter cells. This process allows for rapid population growth in favorable conditions. Didinum nasutum can also reproduce sexually through conjugation, where genetic material is exchanged between two individuals.
