Asexual
What is the definition of asexual reproduction?
one organisim produces one or more new organisims that are identical to itself.
What is the definition of heredity?

What is the definition of cloning?
An organisim that is genetically identical to the parent oganisim.
What are genes?
The factors that control a trait.
What is sexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction is the process in which new organisms are created, by combining the genetic information from two individuals of different sexes.
What is the definition of budding?
It is a type asexual reproduction is which a new organisim develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site.
What are traits?
A characteristic that an organisim can pass on its offspring through it's genes.
What was the most famous animal cloned?
Dolly the sheep.
What are examples of genes?
Eye color, Dimples, Curly hair ect.
What are some disadvantages of sexual reproduction?
It requires two parents, it takes time and energy, and it can prevent favorable genes from being passed to offspring.
What is the definition of Binary fission?
Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction in prokaryotes. During binary fission, the parent organism spilts in two, producing two new cells. Gentically, the new cells are exactly like te parent cell.
What are some examples of heredity?

What is the definition of natural cloning?
Natural cloning is where a single fertilized egg spilts, creating two or more embryos that carry almost identical DNA.
What are chromosomes?
Chromosomes are long strands of DNA that contain thousands of genes.
What is the difference between asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction?
sexual reproduction requries two animals and asexual requires 1 animal.
What are all the examples of asexual reproduction?
