Asexual
Asexual reproduction has _____ parents
Has ONE parent
Why is sexual reproduction considered an advantage for the resulting offspring?
it produces genetic variation
A tree produces fruits that are more resistant to diseases. Which form of reproduction would REDUCE these exact type of fruits?
ensure that the tree reproduces asexually
Why would scientist use asexual reproduction to grow two offspring of a plant, instead of using sexual reproduction?
1. The plants would be an exact genetic match
2. The plants would have fewer recessive traits
3. The plants would have greater genetic diversity
4. The plants would be more likely to mutate
1. The plants would be an exact genetic match
The offspring are genetically ____ to the parent
