Conjugation is a primitive form of sexual reproduction since two parent cells are involved.

Does algae reproduces?

Mitosis is the most common way of algae reproduction.


Name two types of reproduction?

There are 2 types of reprodution , those are sexual and asexual reproduction . Sexual reprodution invloves both a male and a female . but asexual reproduction involves just the female ( a good example of this is a plant , some plants do not need others to reproduce ) ! Hope that helps :)


Does meiosis occur in sexual or asexual reproduction?

Meiosis isn't reproduction itself but takes place during sexual reproduction. The function of meiosis is to produce haploid gamete cells that way when fertilization occurs the result are two haploid gametes (half the number of chromosomes) coming together. It occurs only during spermatogenesis or oogenesis, mitosis produces normal somatic cells.


What sexual reproduction may have originated as a way for cells?

Sexual reproduction may have originated as a way for cells to increase genetic diversity and adaptability to changing environments by combining genetic material from two distinct individuals. This genetic recombination promotes the generation of new genetic variations that may provide a survival advantage in the face of selection pressures.


What is the difference between sexual reproduction and genetic variation?

There is no difference. Sexual reproduction is a source of genetic variation. Because during sexual reproduction within humans, a sperm cell and egg, each consisting of different genetic codes, combine to form a completely different DNA. Immediately, a genetic variation occurs between the parents and the offspring because of the union of the gamete cells, a sperm and egg.

Repair damaged DNA.


Did sexual reproduction evolve after the first multicellular organisms appeared?

Sexual reproduction likely evolved before the first multicellular organisms appeared. It is believed to have originated in single-celled organisms as a way to increase genetic diversity and adaptability. The transition to multicellularity then allowed for more complex forms of sexual reproduction to develop.


How do you spell primitive?

Primitive is spelled the way you spelled it: primitive.


What are the advantages of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction?

With asexual reproduction, the DNA creates a total copy, unique in no way whatsoever. However, with sexual reproduction, though the process is not as quick in most cases, there is a certain level of unique traits which allow the offspring to either spread into different areas, as most plants do, or become a better or worse version of the combination of its two parent genes. Also, in most animals and humans, sexual reproduction is rather pleasurable.

What is a tigers type of reproduction?

What are the a dvantages and disadvantages of sexual and asexual reproduction?

With sexual reproduction, each generation is slightly different from either parent. That way in every species some members are likely to survive and reproduce when conditions change. Asexual reproduction can occur at a much faster level than sexual reproduction. With some plants, a branch stuck in the soil will produce a new plant. That happens much faster than waiting for a seed to grow.

The same way they do today, by sexual reproduction.


Do worms only reproduce through sexual reproduction?

yes, well they can. But there is one more way the can. If you put them in a box i the dark they could do more
