Does sexual reproduction produce more offspring than asexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction, such as binary fission, is simply a complete copy of anorganism. There is no genetic variation in the daughter organism from the primary organism. However, when sexual reproduction occurs, there are multiple parties contributing, which combines different genotypes.
What occurs when a new organism formed from the same organism?
Occurs when a new organism is formed from the same organism
What is the difference between selective breeding and natural selection?
In natural selection, the animals take time and evolve slowly. In selective breeding, humans can transfer genes from one organism into another organism.
Which of the following situations is most usual for a dominant allele that results in severe effects in the offspring?
The trait occurs by mutation.
What are the 4 key principles of natural selection?
1. Overproduction - more offspring are born than survive 2. Genetic Variation - there is variation in the population 3. Struggle to Survive - organisms with suitable variations will survive and reproduce 4. Differential Reproduction - suitable variations are passed on to offspring
What happens when a one celled organism divides?
Asexual reproduction occurs.
What happens when one celled organism divides?
Asexual reproduction occurs.
Reproduction that does not produce variation among the offspring?
Asexual reproduction does not produce genetic variation among offspring, as the new organisms are exact copies of the parent organism. This process involves only one parent and typically occurs through methods such as budding, regeneration, or binary fission.
What form of asexual reproduction occurs when one organism divides into two organisms.?
Binary Fission
What type of reproductive occurs when animals produce clone offspring?
asexual
When an organism of many cells breaks up into two or more parts and these parts survive to produce a new organism reproduction occurs by .?
Fragmentation occurs when an organism of many cells breaks into two or more parts and these parts survive to produce a new organism.
This form of asexual reproduction occurs when one organism divides into two organisms.?
Binary Fission
Will a mutation that occurs in a skin cell be passed on to organism offspring?
No, mutations that occur in skin cells are not passed on to organism offspring because they are not present in the germ cells (sperm or egg cells) that are involved in reproduction. Only mutations in the germ cells can be passed on to offspring.
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless what occurs?
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless mutation or genetic recombination occurs, introducing variation among the offspring.
What process occurs only in the information of gametes?
During the formation of gametes - a process called gametogenesis - meiosis is a process which only occurs during this period. Meiosis is a special type of cell division necessary for sexual reproduction.
Mutation that occurs in gametes and can be passed to the offspring are what?
Germline mutations are changes that occur in the DNA of an organism's gametes (sperm or egg cells) and can be passed on to their offspring. These mutations are present in every cell of the resulting offspring's body.
Why does spermatogenesis happen in a male?
Spermatogenesis occurs so that the sperm can join with an egg from a female and produce offspring.
