The process by which an offspring receives genes from its parents is known as what?
inheritance
The trait that always shows up in offspring is known as what kind of trait?
A reproductive process that involves only one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent is called?
asexual reproduction
Two parents combine their genetic material to produce a new organism which differs from both parents.
sexual reproduction
All offspring having the same exact genetic makeup as the parent reduces the species chances of what?
survival
Fur color depends on what?
inherited genes
FF is known as what kind of trait?
dominant
Is known as the simplest form of reproduction.
asexual reproduction
What is the process called when an egg cell and a sperm cell join together to a new cell?
fertilization
Organisms that reproduce sexually pass on genes with greater genetic what?
variation
on chromosomes
ff is known as what kind of trait?
recessive
This type of asexual reproduction occurs when a new organism forms from a piece of the original.
fragmentation
A specific characteristic that an organism can pass to its offspring through its genes is called what?
trait
Greater genetic variation increases a species chances of what?
survival
allele
When a dominant allele and a recessive allele are inherited, this is known as what?
incomplete dominance
In this process, a new animal grows out from the parent until it fully matures and breaks off.
budding
A sequence of DNA that is passed from parent to offspring is known as what?
a gene
What is a downside for sexual reproduction?
