Why is important for egg and sperm cells to join in fertilization?
In sexual reproduction, an organism get half of it's genes from it mother and half from the father. Without the genes from both the egg and sperm, the genome of the new organism would be incomplete.
What is essential for the survival of the species and the organism does not need?
The ability to breed successfully. An organism can have a full and happy life without reproducing, but if a species does not do so, it will die out immediately.
What is the purpose of a spore?
Its the reproductive part of a fungi or a pteridophyta, fern. Might also be the reproductive part of other primitive plants, perhaps hornworts, liverworts, or horsetails also produce spores, I'm not sure, but I know for a fact that ferns do it, as well as all fungi. A spore is like a very small seed, produced in much greater quantity, without the resilliency that seeds have (no seed coat or extra nutrients for the growing organism).
What are two types of eukaryotic asexual reproduction?
(1) Budding: Used by animals such as hydra, a bud grows from the side of the body, and can sometimes grow to a size that can exist independently if separated. (2) Parthenogensis: Aphids use this to produce young without fertilization during prime conditions
Cells produce ATP most efficiently in the presence of what molecule?
Oxygen. Cells can produce much more ATP from glucose in the presence of Oxygen (aerobic respiration) than without oxygen (anaerobic respiration) in a process called oxidative phosphorylation that occurs in the mitochondria of cells. In the presence of oxygen one glucose can be broken down to produce 36 ATP Without oxygen, only 4 ATP can be made
What is a reproductive cell that can produce a new organism without fertilization?
A Spore
Is external fertilization sexual or asexual?
Well, there is fertilization in sexual reproduction, but there is not fertilization in asexual because the female reproductive system needs help with the male reproductive system through sex. Without sex, it is asexual. Females need the males sperm in order to fertilize the baby or plant.
How does pollen help a seed plant reproduce without water?
Pollen is the male reproductive structure of seed plants. It contains the sperm cells necessary for fertilization. When pollen is transferred from the male reproductive structure to the female reproductive structure (such as by wind or pollinators), it can reach the ovule without the need for water, allowing for fertilization and seed formation to occur.
What is an organism that is produced by only one parent organism?
It is a clone. An example: Aphids are all female and produce offspring through a process called parthenogenesis, in which their eggs, produced by mitosis (not meiosis), develop without fertilization. All of the offspring of a particular aphid are clones of that aphid.
What is an apomict?
An apomict is any apomitic plant or organism - that is, any plant or organism which goes through reproduction without going through the process of fertilization.
What form of asexual reproduction is shown here lizard?
It can be parthanogenesis.Female gamete is turned into new organism without fertilization.
Is the female reproductive cell able to reproduce without a male reproductive cell?
No , it is not possible to produce a baby's cell ( zygote ) without a male reproductive cell ( sperm ) to fertilise it .But a female's reproductive cell ( egg ) can be produced without a sperm .It is possible to transfer a sperm into the ovum of a female through a surgery .
In which phyla does asexual reproduction occurs through gammule?
Asexual reproduction through gamules occurs in the phyla Porifera (sponges) and Cnidaria (corals, jellyfish, etc.). Gamules are specialized reproductive cells that are released from the parent organism and develop into new individuals without fertilization.
What is reproduce and fertilization?
In sexual reproduction, two parents donate genes to their young, resulting in offspring with a mix of inherited genes. These genes are donated through a process called fertilization. There are two mechanisms by which fertilization can take place. The first is external (the eggs are fertilized outside of the body), and the second is internal (the eggs are fertilized within the female reproductive tract). While fertilization is necessary for organisms that reproduce sexually, individuals that reproduce asexually do so without the need for fertilization. These organisms produce genetically identical copies of themselves through the process of mitosis.
If a favorable trait increases the life span of an organism without affecting reproductive success does it contribute to evolution?
It contributes to evolution, yes.
Why is important for egg and sperm cells to join in fertilization?
In sexual reproduction, an organism get half of it's genes from it mother and half from the father. Without the genes from both the egg and sperm, the genome of the new organism would be incomplete.
What is pollination and fertilization?
can seeds form without pollination and fertilization
