The color of your eyes is an example of an inherited trait. These are the traits that are passed down to you from your parents. How are inherited traits like this passed from parents to their children?

Traits like this are determined by the genes passed from parents to their children.

Traits like this are developed over a long period of time.

Traits like this are responsible for the way you look, act, and feel.

Traits like this are determined by the knowledge passed from parents to their children.

Which are associated with sexual reproduction?

fertilization, egg and sperm, chromosomes from parents

Meiosis is a process that produces gametes. Using the diagram, what do you notice about the cells produced in meiosis?

Meiosis produces 4 daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the original cell.

Meiosis produces 4 daughter cells each identical in number of chromosomes to the original cell.

Meiosis produces 2 daughter cells each identical in number of chromosomes to the original cell.

Meiosis produces 7 daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the original cell.

Which of these is a characteristic of sexual reproduction?

It results in offspring with genetic variation.

It takes place in all cells of the body.

It forms exact copies of the parent cell.

It requires only one parent to form a daughter cell.

Which is true about asexual reproduction?

Takes only one mate to reproduce and takes a shorter time to reproduce

Takes only one mate to reproduce and takes a longer time to reproduce

Takes a shorter amount of time to reproduce and it takes two mates to reproduce

Reproduces diverse offspring and takes a longer time to reproduce

What is an advantage of sexual reproduction?

Offspring are exact copies of parent

After meiosis is complete, the new cells:

are half identical and half different

What is an advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction?

It increases diversity in the population, making it more adaptable to changing environments.

It is better for all organisms to be the same.

It helps skin cells divide faster to heal wounds.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

The sperm fertilizes the egg to produce a zygote.

Egg and sperm receive chromosomes from each parent.

In some organisms, a piece of the parent may bud off to produce offspring.

The zygote undergoes cell division and cell differentiation to become a new and different organism from the parents.
