Cytokinesis
Centerfield
Chloroplast
What is the purpose, of function, of mitosis?

Repair of damaged tissue and reproduction of the organisms
All of the above
What cell part determine the characteristics of a living thing?
Chromosomes

Cytoplasm
Chromium
In this type of reproduction, two individuals contribute genetic information to the offspring.
Sexual Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
Both Asexual & Sexual Reproduction
Neither Asexual or Sexual Reproduction
In this type of reproduction, only one individual contributes genetic information to the offspring.
Sexual Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
Both Asexual & Sexual Reproduction
Neither Asexual or Sexual Reproduction
In this type of reproduction, only one parent is needed to produce offspring.
Sexual Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
Both Asexual & Sexual Reproduction
Neither Asexual or Sexual Reproduction
The biggest advantage of sexual reproduction for a species is:
Only one parent is needed to produce offspring
Two parents are needed to produce offspring
There is genetic variation
Only a few offspring are produced
The splitting of an asexual organism into two exact copies is called:
Budding
Sporalation
Vegetative Propagation
Binary Fission
In this type of asexual reproduction any part of an organism that breaks off can form a new organism.
Budding
Sporalation
Regeneration
Binary Fission
In this form of asexual reproduction, new plants can be created from roots, stems, or leaves.
Budding
Binary Fission
Regeneration
Vegetative Propagation
In this form of asexual reproduction, a new individual sprouts from the parent, then breaks off as a new individual.
Budding
Binary Fission
Regeneration
Vegetative Propagation
Q#12) In asexual reproduction:
No DNA is passed to the offspring
There is one parent
There are two parents
The offspring is genetically different from the parent
Q#13) Reproductive success is important for:
The individual
The species
The parent
Q#14) Obtaining new individuals of a seedless plant requires:
Two parents
DNA variation
Sexual reproduction
Asexual reproduction
Genetic variation means:
Offspring DNA is blended from two parents
The species will survive
Offspring DNA is blended from one parent
All of the above
If an organism has 26 chromosomes, the fertilized egg must have 26 chromosomes, but how many chromosomes must each sex cell have
26
53
13
In this process sex cells have their chromosome number reduced by half.
Meiosis
Mitosis
A disadvantage of sexual reproduction is:
Many offspring are produced
There is genetic variation
A mate must be found which requires a lot of energy
It requires less time than asexual reproduction
Q#17) Which of the following are the correct pairing of sex cells?
Sperm & Ovule
Pollen & Ovule
Pollen & Egg
Pollen & Sperm
What is it called when sex cells are joined together?
Cell Division
Mitosis
Fertilization
Meiosis
What is an unborn organism called that has not yet developed organ systems?
Zygote
Embryo
Fetus
Offspring
What is an unborn organism called that does have organ systems?
Zygote
Embryo
Fetus
Offspring
What is the time period called that occurs between fertilization and birth?
Fertilization Time
Geologic Time
Gestation Time
Historical Time
If an organism has 60 body cells, how many cells will a zygote have?
30
60
120
If an organism has 60 body cells, how many cells will a its gamete have?
30
60
120
Which species strategy involves having few offspring and lots of parental care?
K-Selected Species
R-Selected Species
Which species strategy involves having many offspring and little or no parental care?
K-Selected Species
R-Selected Species
If fish or frog eggs and sperm are released into the water, fertilization is:
Internal
External
Which of the following is not a requirement for successful reproduction for animals?
Finding a mate
Fertilization
Developing the offspring
Teaching the young how to build a house
What way is not a way for an animal finding a mate?
Displays
Scent
Bioluminescence
Invisibility
Which of the following are not examples of an animal display?
Having eyes
Large tusks
Large antlers
Bright colors
Q#22) A cuttlefish chages skin color and makes its stripes move. This is an example of:
Releasing scent
Guarding its young
Obtaining food
A mating display
Q#23) The objective of sexual reproduction is to ___.
Create offspring that are identical
Create offspring to feed predators
Create offspring that have variation from the parents
Create offspring that do a variety of things
Q#25) If an animal bears one baby at a time and the mother tends to help it for up to a year, which species strategy is this?
K-Selected Strategy
R-Selected Strategy
Q#27) Male peacocks have extreme plumage. What is the purpose of these feathers?
To protect its young
To keep itself cool
To keep it shaded from the sun
To attract a mate
