Asexual Reproduction

In asexual reproduction, all of the offspring are:

• Physically Identical
• Genetically Identical
• Physically and Genetically Identical
• Not Identical

A hydra reproduces when an outgrowth, or bud, forms and continues to develop until if falls off of the parent. This is an example of:

• Binary Fission
• Sporulation
• Budding
• Vegetative Propagation

• budding
• sporulation
• vegetative propagation
• binary fission

• budding
• binary fission
• sporulation
• regeneration

What type of asexual reproduction is taking place?
Fishermen work hard to catch and remove all the starfish that get into their favorite shell fishing beds and the “underwater farms” where they raise clams and oysters. In the past, they put the starfish into their boats, cut them up with knives, and then throw the pieces of starfish overboard. They thought this would kill the starfish. What they did not know was that each piece of starfish will grow into a whole new animal.

• Regeneration
• Vegetative propagation
• Budding
• Fission

How many parent(s)are needed for asexual?

• 4
• 1
• 9
• 100

Offspring grows from part of a parent plant

• Mitosis

• Budding

• Vegetative Reproduction

• Regeneration

Prokaryotes (bacteria) reproduce asexually via -

• spore formation
• bud creation
• vegetative propagation
• binary fission
