What are the advantages of sexual and asexual reproduction?
disadvantages of sexual reproduction:- need 2 parents (if one species dies out; can't produce anything) - can spread disease- not quick- may be mutationsadvantages of asexual reproduction:disadvantages of asexual reproduction:- exact copy - no diversity- if a disease is genetically transmitted, every generation will get that disease and soon become extincthope this helped !
What does it mean when living things reproduce?
Reproduction is one of the basic characteristic that every living organism show.Population of a species is maintained by method of reproduction.Living organisms give birth to offspring's by reproduction.
What is the advange and disadvange of asexual reproduction?
Advantage: Asexual reproduction can quickly result in large numbers of offspring. Disadvantage: Asexual reproduced offspring generally identical - so they will respond to their environment in the same way.
How long does it take for asexual reproudution to occur?
Asexual reproduction can occur relatively quickly, with some organisms able to reproduce in a matter of hours or days. For example, bacteria can divide every 20 minutes under optimal conditions, while certain plants can produce clones through runners or tubers in a growing season. The exact time frame varies widely depending on the species and environmental factors. Overall, asexual reproduction is generally faster than sexual reproduction.
Why does meiosis tend to give rise to greater diversity more quickly than asexual reproduction?
When you make exact carbon copies of genetic material, diversity only occurs when a mis-copy occurs as opposed to a regular basis. This is how asexual reproduction creates new creatures. Meiosis leads to gametes which are cells with only half of the genetic information from the original cell. When that is combined with half of the genetic information from a different creatures gametes, the resultant creature is different from both parents every time. This is how sexual reproduction creates diverse creatures at every iteration.
What is an example of an organism that can alternate between asexual and sexual reproduction?
An example of an organism that can alternate between asexual and sexual reproduction is the common yeast fungus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This fungus primarily reproduces asexually through budding but can also undergo sexual reproduction through the formation of spores under certain conditions.

Are all fungi diploid and do they contain chromosomes from both parents?
No - most fungi have both a diploid and haploid stage in their lifecycle. Some fungi undergo asexual reproduction (which only involves one parent organism) and others undergo sexual reproduction.

Advantage: Asexual reproduction can quickly result in large numbers of offspring. Disadvantage: Asexual reproduced offspring generally identical - so they will respond to their environment in the same way.
What are the different modes of reproduction of plants and animals?
I think the question regard every living organism, not only animals. Sexual - when two gometes - one from male, aka spermatozoan- and the other from female, aka egg cell, fuse to form a diploid zygote which eventually develop as a new individual: this type of reproduction allows variation. Asexual - when an individual is grown up from the other organism and it splits from the mother organism (eg: binary fission in bacteria, or budding in plants) : new organism is identical to its parent.
Is asexual a better mode than sexuall reproduction.?
My point is, the assexual is better cause the animal dont need a partner, and he can do it everywhere, every time.
What will happen if reproduction suddenly stopped?
Every living thing would die out.
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.
What is the mood of reproduction of bacteria?
bacteria reproduce both sexually and asexually sexual method is conjugation and asexual is binnary fission in which they devide into two every 20 min.
Why does meiosis tend to give rise to greater diversity more quickly than asexual reproduction?
When you make exact carbon copies of genetic material, diversity only occurs when a mis-copy occurs as opposed to a regular basis. This is how asexual reproduction creates new creatures.

When that is combined with half of the genetic information from a different creatures gametes, the resultant creature is different from both parents every time. This is how sexual reproduction creates diverse creatures at every iteration.
Is there a motivation - other than survival and reproduction - that is applicable to a living thing?
Survival and reproduction are certainly the top two motivations for EVERY living thing. In fact, I can't think of any others that are true for every living thing. For some, like humans, we do have other motivations - but in many cases, they come down to a more generalized examples of reproduction. Money, status and power, for example, are all things that we strive for in order to get and keep a mate.
