Question 5

Which type of asexual reproduction is taking place?

bud creation

Answer

vegetative propagation

Question 9

Provided is a table of organisms and some data on their characteristics. Based on the information in the table, which organism is likely to produce offspring with the greatest genetic diversity?

Accepted Answer

Spruce

Answer

Black mold

Answer

Bell tree dahlia

Answer

Hydra

Question 10

All of the offspring of an organism have the same genetic material, which is identical to the parent organism. From this, we can conclude that this organism -

Accepted Answer

reproduces asexually

Answer

makes its own food

Answer

is unicellular

Answer

live in a marine habitat

Question 11

When comparing the offspring of sexually and asexually reproducing organisms, we would expect the genetic material (DNA) of the sexually reproducing organism to -

Accepted Answer

show more variation

Answer

contain fewer mutations

Answer

be lesser in quantity

Answer

be simpler overall

Question 12

The male typically deposits a spermatophore on the ground or in the water and the female picks this up. The female salamander then lays its eggs on a stick or rock near water or on land. There are several different species of salamanders with different colorful patterns.
Which type of reproduction is taking place?

Accepted Answer

Sexual reproduction with diverse offspring

Answer

Asexual reproduction with uniform offspring

Answer

Asexual reproduction with diverse offspring

Answer

Sexual reproduction with uniform offspring

Question 13

This is when a new organism grows by cell division on the body of its parent. The bud, or offspring is identical to the parent. The bud, when large enough, can break off of the parent and live on its own. Examples of this include yeast, hydra and potatoes.

Accepted Answer

Budding

Answer

Regeneration

Answer

Vegetative propagation

Answer

Fission

Question 14

This occurs when an offspring grows from a piece of its parent. Examples include Sea Stars, Sea urchins, sea cucumber, sponges, and planarians

Accepted Answer

Regeneration

Answer

Vegetative propagation

Answer

Budding

Answer

Fission
