Reproduction Quiz

Where does an off spring get its traits in asexual reproduction?

• From both parents

• From only one parent

• From neither parent

• There are no traits handed down

• budding

• sporulation

• vegetative propagation

• binary fission

Why does sexual reproduction result in more genetic diversity than asexual reproduction? 

• Traits from two parents are combined. 

• More organisms reproduce this way. 

• Offspring grow in different environments. 

• Offspring come from identical parents. 

Which is the greatest benefit of sexual reproduction? 

• capable of reproducing by meiosis 

• ability to reproduce without a mate 

• ability to produce genetically different offspring 

• capable of producing offspring genetically identical to parent 

In sexual reproduction offspring look___________from their parent.

• Identical

• different

• the opposite 

• happy

In asexual reproduction the offspring look ________ as their parent.

• identical

• different

• the opposite

• as happy

What is a disadvantage of sexual reproduction?

• It produces fewer offspring

• it produces more offspring

• It generate genetically diverse offspring

• It generates identical offspring

What type of asexual reproduction does the figure represent?

• Binary Fission

• Budding

• Vegetative Propagation

• Fragmentation

In multicellular organisms, why does cell division occur?

• Growth of cells

• Repair of cells

• Create new organism

What is Regeneration?

• develops an outgrowth which is detached from the parent and becomes a new individual.

• the organism produce its own spores. These spores are genetically identical to the parent

• Helps repair or grow lost body parts. Some of these animals can also grow new organisms from the individual pieces

• A new organism is created from the roots, stems or leaves.
