Reproduction and Hereditary Information Quiz

Why is reproduction considered important for the continuity of species?

• It increases the lifespan of individual organisms.

• It preserves the continuity of the species.

• It ensures the survival of the fittest individuals only.

• It allows species to adapt to new environments quickly.

What is essential for the transmission of hereditary information?

• Reproduction through binary fission.

• The presence of environmental factors.

• The transmission of hereditary information which is carried in the DNA.

• The use of artificial selection in breeding.

What happens when a single-celled organism divides?

• It forms a multicellular organism.

• It creates a new cell that is not viable.

• It makes a whole new organism.

• It replaces damaged or dead cells.

In multicellular organisms, what is one of the purposes of cell division?

• To create single-celled organisms.

• To allow growth and development of the fertilized egg and replacement of damaged or dead cells.

• To produce a whole new organism.

• To decrease the number of cells in the organism.
