What are some living things that reproduce?

Answer 1

This is a very simple answer: If it's alive, it reproduces. There is no such thing as an immortal organism. They all die, and to continue the survival of the species they must all reproduce before they die. To keep the species stable, complex animals that reproduce by sexual reproduction and are either male or female must replace themselves - two offspring per female in her lifetime. There must also be enough extra young to cope with those that die before reproducing.

Answer 2

Answer:

For the simplest organisms, bacteria reproduction is a relatively simple thing. First, DNA replication copies the bacterias circular chromosome(s), and then the bacterial cell simply splits in half, giving each "offspring" a complete set of DNA.

More complex Eukaryotic organisms with a nucleus can have a more complicated reproductive cycle. Multicellular eukaryotes such as plants and animals have "sex:" a male phenotype and a female phenotype. To make a long story short, the male and female organism each produce a special cell called a gamete. For a female, this gamete is called an egg, and for the male, the gamete is called (usually) a sperm. Each gamete contains half the usual complement of linear eukaryotic chromosomes (conveniently, eukaryotes have 2 copies of each chromosome except the sex chromosomes, allowing the gamete cell to function normally). The sperm and the egg cell then unite, forming a zygote. This zygote is the offspring and will later develop (if things go right) into an adult.

Living things can produce either asexually or sexually. During asexual reproduction, the fusion of the male and female gametes or fertilization is not involved. The parent organism simply produces an offspring that is genetically identical to it, which is why asexual reproduction is also known as "cloning". There are different types of asexual reproduction like: budding, binary fission, regeneration, fragmentation, spores, vegetative propagation, and etc. While in sexual reproduction, the fusion of the male and female gametes is involved. This results to an offspring that is genetically different from its parent organisms.

Answer 3

All living things have the capability to reproduce.

Answer 4

Some organisms reproduce sexually, some reproduce asexually, and some can do both.

Answer 5

blah! blah! blah!

hahahahahahahahahaha!

Answer 6

It has to be alive
