Mitosis & Meiosis

The diagram below represents reproduction in a yeast cell. The genes in the bud are identical to the genes in the parent. This type of production of offspring is a form of

• sexual reproduction
• asexual reproduction
• gene manipulation
• genetic engineering

Which process, carried out by a hydra, is illustrated by the series of drawings below?

• binary fission
• budding
• vegetative propagation
• spore formation

When an organism reproduces asexually, it usually has

• only one parent, and half as much DNA as the parent
• only one parent, and the same chromosome number as the parent
• two parents, and twice as much DNA as either parent
• two parents, and the same chromosome number as each parent

• asexual reproduction
• selective breeding
• gamete formation

The diagram below represents division of a cell that produces two daughter cells. Which statement most likely describes the daughter cells produced?

• The daughter cells will pass on only half of the genetic information they received from the original cell.
• The daughter cells will each produce offspring that will have the same genetic information as the original cell.
• The daughter cells will each undergo the same mutations as the original cell after reproduction has occurred.
• The daughter cells will not pass on any of the genes that they received from the original cell.
