Questions with Answer Options:
1 the off spring of an organism produced through asexual reproduction is always-
-
genetically identical to its parent.
- created by vegetative propagation.
- made of cells with a cell wall.
- different from its siblings.
2 if two organisms reproduce sexually, then their offspring will exhibit a genetic makeup that is-
-
identical to only one parent
- identical to all of its siblings
- a unique combination of traits
- the recessive traits of each parent
3 all of the offspring or an organism have the same genetic material identical to the parent organism. From this, we can conclude that this organism-
-
makes its own food.
- is unicellular.
- lives in a marine habitat.
- reproduces asexually.
4 which of the following is likely to experience regeneration?
- a turtles
- b starfish
- c babies
- d birds
Answer:
- genetically identical to its parent.
- a unique combination of traits
- reproduces asexually.
- starfish
Explanation:
1. Asexual reproduction is when an organism produces offspring without a mate. The offspring are always genetically identical to the parent.
2. Sexual reproduction is when two organism produce an organism through the fusion of gametes. The offspring's genetic make up is a mixture between the two parents - a unique combination of traits.
3. If all the offspring of an organism have the same genetic material that is also identical to the parent organism, the organism must reproduce asexually.
4. Starfish can regrow arms that have become detached from the central cavity - a process called regeneration
