Explain difference between asexual and sexual reproduction.
Sexual reproduction involves one parent, and Asexual reproduction involves two parents.
Asexual reproduction involves one parent and the offspring is genetically identical to the parent. Sexual reproduction involves two parents, and the offspring a unique.
They are the same type of reproduction except asexual reproduction takes more time.
Sexual reproduction is shorter than asexual reproduction.
How are sexual and asexual reproduction similar?
They both produce children.
They both require at least two parents for the process to occur.
They both create one offspring at a time.
They both involve consuming nutrients.
Name the type of reproduction:
This type of reproduction has the advantage of giving organisms the ability to increase in number very quickly.

Describe how the chromosomes in sex cells differ from those in body cells?
Body cells have half the number of chromosomes the parent has. Sex cells have the same number of chromosomes the parent cell has.
Sex cells have the same number of chromosomes the parent has. Body cells have half the number of chromosomes the parent cell has.
Body cells have the same number of chromosomes the parent has. Sex cells have half the number of chromosomes the parent cell has.
Body cells and sex cells both have the exact same number of chromosomes.

left: sex cell— right: body cell
left: body cell—right: sex cell
left: body cell—right: body cell
left: sex cell—right: sex cell

During cell division, two new cells are formed. Describe the relationship of these two new cells with the parent cell.
The offspring is genetically identical to the parent.
The offspring is genetically unique.
The offspring's body make its own DNA.
No traits were inherited from the parents in the process.
The diagram shows the basic idea of cell division. Explain the process that occurs during the 1st step.
DNA is replicated (copied)
The DNA begins to unravel (fall apart)
The DNA is turned into RNA (change)
The DNA is unaffected (no change)
A molecule that determines the traits of living things is known as ________________.
RNA
heredity
DNA
