Asexual and Sexual reproduction
This type of reproduction involves only one parent.
What is asexual reproduction?
This type of fertilization occurs inside the body.
What is internal fertilization?
This part of the flower produces pollen
What is the anther?
This phase is when the cell grows and performs normal functions
What is interphase?
This process produces two identical daughter cells
What is mitosis?
This type of reproduction produces genetically identical offspring.
What is asexual reproduction?
This is the male reproductive cell.
What is sperm?
This process occurs when pollen lands on the stigma.
What is pollination?
DNA is copied during this phase of interphase.
What is the S phase?
This process produces four genetically different cells.
What is meiosis?
This reproductive process involves sperm and egg cells joining together.
What is sexual reproduction?
This is the female reproductive cell.
What is the egg/ovum?
This structure contains the ovules in a flower.
What is the ovary?
This stage is when the cell divides into two daughter cells.
What is cytokinesis?
Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell during this phase.
What is metaphase?
This is the main advantage of sexual reproduction.
What is genetic variation/diversity?
Name one advantage of internal fertilization.
What is greater protection of the embryo, higher survival rate, or increased chance of fertilization?
This is the male reproductive structure of a flower.
What is the stamen?
The three main stages of interphase are these.
What are G1, S, and G2?
Crossing over occurs during this phase of meiosis.
What is prophase I?
Name two forms of asexual reproduction
What are budding, binary fission, fragmentation, vegetative propagation, or spore formation?
This process is the fusion of the sperm and egg cell.
What is fertilization?
Name one way plants can reproduce asexually
What is vegetative propagation through runners, tubers, bulbs, or cuttings?
This checkpoint ensures DNA has been copied correctly before mitosis begins.
What is the G2 checkpoint?
Name two differences between mitosis and meiosis.
