Unit 4 Check 3: Sexual & Asexual Reproduction

What do budding, binary fission and spore formation have in common ?

• They require two parents

• They require only one parent cell

• They produce only one daughter cell

• They are all forms of sexual reproduction

What are the end products of binary fission?

• Two independent daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other

• One daughter cell that is genetically different from the parent

• Two independent daughter cells that are different from each other

• Two daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell

During budding, what is usually formed?

• A bud from the daughter cell

• New DNA from the parent cell

• An outgrowth from the parent organism

• New stems and roots

Asexual reproduction requires

• Only one parent to produce offspring

• Two parents to produce offspring

• A combination of parents to produce offspring

• Two clones to produce offspring

One disadvantage of asexual reproduction is

• Genetic diversity is increased which makes individuals too different from one another

• Genetic diversity is decreased which can lead to single factors wiping out the population

• Nonexistent, genetic diversity is irrelevant to population success

• The overpopulation of the population

One key advantage of asexual reproduction is

• Offspring complete for food and space

• It allows organisms to reproduce quickly as singular organisms

• Genetic diversity is increased causing a more stable population

• Offspring are different than parent organism
