What is an advantage of sexual reproduction?

Offspring are exact copies of parent

What is one disadvantage of sexual reproduction?

Off spring are exact copies of parents

In asexual reproduction, all of the offspring are:

Physically and Genetically Identical

If an environment suddenly changes, which type of reproduction would be most beneficial? Why?

Sexual, because sexual organisms have variation within species.

Asexual, because asexual organisms always have variation within species.

Both Asexual and Sexual reproduction would be beneficial, because they both have variation within species.

Asexual, because asexual organisms have no variation, so they can adapt to a changing environment.

The offspring from asexually reproduced organisms are?

Like a combination from both parents

If two organisms reproduce sexually, then their offspring will exhibit a genetic makeup that is -

identical to all of its siblings

the recessive traits of each parent

What is true about the offspring in this image?

They will share the identical DNA as their parent

They will be genetically unique and not identical to their parents

Two parents were required to create offspring

The offspring will not carry the same diseases as the parent

Which advantage is most related to asexual reproduction?

produces many offspring quickly

sometimes both parents help to raise the offspring

the health of the population increases overtime because of genetic variation

There are a couple thousand different species of brittle star. At certain times of the year, male and female stars release sperm and eggs into the ocean. They can also reproduce by simply splitting in half and growing new body parts. How does the organism reproduce?

Both Asexual and Sexual reproduction

The sea horse is unique among fish: it mates for life with the same partner. It is the dad who gets pregnant. The female deposits her eggs in the male's pouch which are then fertilized.( The pouch is an external structure that grows on the body of the male) What type of reproduction?

Both Sexual and Asexual reproduction

The garden strawberry plant grows modified stems, called runners. Along the runners, tiny new strawberry plants take root. Each new plant is identical to the parent. Insect pollinators also visit strawberry flowers. Pollen from one flower join the eggs of another to form seeds that cover the strawberry fruit. What type of reproduction?

Both asexual and sexual reproduction

Pollen grains produced by a flower are carried by a be to the stigma of another flower. What type of reproduction?

Both sexual and asexual reproduction

A stem is cut from a plant and grows its own roots and leaves. It's a process called propagation (cutting). What type of reproduction?

Both asexual and sexual reproduction

A female salmon lays eggs on a stream bed (spawn) to be fertilized by the male.
