What are the features of asexual reproduction?
One single-celled organism must be able to split in order to create a genetically similar offspring
Describe the two ways that bacteria reproduce?
Sexually- meiosis occurs to produce offspring Asexually- parent cell clones itself to create 2 identical offspring
What do sexual and asexual have in common?
They are both ways to reproduce, and both create offspring
What is repoduction?
A reproduction, such as a painting, is an attempt to create an exact or near exact copy of the original.
What is the number of offspring an asexual reproduction can have?
Organisms that reproduce asexually do not share a limiting factor in the production of offspring. The limit will generally depend on the lifespan of the organism, the mode of reproduction and the resources available. As an example: a paramecium will reproduce by fission. That will produce two new organisms. Do you say that the parent produced two offspring but, was lost in the process? ...or do you arbitrarily call one the parent and the other the offspring? ...does it really matter? After you puzzle through that, each will have divided again-- 1->2->4->8->16->32->64->... Until they use up all food, they will likely continue the sequence with no numerical limit.

What do single celled organism eat?
Some create there food
When you take a cell from one organism and create an identical organism it is called what?
cloning
Describe the two ways that bacteria reproduce?
Sexually- meiosis occurs to produce offspring Asexually- parent cell clones itself to create 2 identical offspring
What is a spore-?
A single or many celled reproductive body of an organism that can create new organisms.
What couses competition?
The fact that resources are limited. Whichever organism utilizes the limited resources best will survive to create offspring.
How is sexual reproduction in plants different from sexual reproduction in mammals?
plants are a-sexual reproduction meaning that only one parent is need to make offspring and the offspring is identical to the parent. sexual reproduction is in mammals where two parents are needed to create offspring.
What is the main goal of cellular reproduction?
The purpose of cellular mitosis is for the growth of an organism. It produces two cells with identical genetic information, and replaces damaged or dead cells.
Compare the number of chromosomes in an organism's body cells with the number in its reproductive cells?
The reproductive cells of an organism each contribute half of the required genetic material to create the offspring. This means that each reproductive cell has 1n, while the organism has 2n chromosomes.
What traits do most living things have in common?
They have Carbon. They contain DNA, not RNA like a virus. They are single-celled or multi. One old way they noticed is that if an organism were to create Urea it was considered a living organism, but that theory was overruled. Hope this helps.
Are gerbera daisies single celled?
Gerbera daisies are not single celled. These daisies have many cells that create the flower.
Do single celled organisms eat?
Some create there food
