Asexual
What is the definition of asexual reproduction?
one organisim produces one or more new organisims that are identical to itself.
Explain the difference between nature vs nurture and give an example of each.
Nature
Nurture
Definition: All the environmental influences a person is exposed to, from conception onward, including experiences, learning, and upbringing.
Examples: Childhood experiences like neglect, the influence of teachers and parents, socioeconomic status, and exposure to toxins in the environment.
What is one advantage of asexual reproduction
They can be reproduced fast and lots can be produced.
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 is an advantage of sexual reproduction
The advantage of sexual reproduction is that there is more genetic variation.
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?
eye color, hair type, and freckles ect.
What is a disadvantage of sexual reproduction?
The disadvantage of sexual reproduction is that it requires more time and less offspring are produced.
What are alleles?
Alleles are different forms of genes.
What are some advantges of sexual reproduction?
It paves the way to unique individuals, it promotes survival, and it removes bad genes from the population.
What are some examples of asexual reproduction?
New potato plants can grow from tubers.
What are genes?
The factors that control a trait.
What is the disadvantage of asexual reproduction?
The disadvantage of asexual reproduction there is no genetic variation.
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?
Binary Fission,Budding,Spores, and vegative reproduction.
Who discovered heredity?
Gregor Mendel.
What structure do plants use to reproduce asexually?
Runners, tubers and plantlets.
What is the difference between fraternal and identical twins?
Fraternal twins are reproduced with two eggs and identical are reproduced with one egg.
How is asexual and sexual reproduction alike?
They both contribute genetic information
