Asexual and Sexual Reproduction

Asexual reproduction

Offspring are clones of the parent
The offspring has the same DNA as the parent

Asexual reproduction

The process used for asexual reproduction is mitosis or binary fission

Benefits:

-Quick

-Reproduction can happen without a mate

Disadvantage:

-Lack of genetic diversity

Sexual reproduction

Sexual reproduction involves gametes (example: sperm and egg)

Sexual Reproduction

The process used to make the gametes for sexual reproduction is meiosis.

Benefits

Genetic diversity
Diversity supports survival of the species

Disadvantage

High use of energy and time

Multiple Choice

The process used for asexual reproduction is

meiosis

mitosis

Multiple Choice

Offspring that are produced by only one parent are

genetically diverse

clones

gametes

Multiple Choice

Asexual reproduction produces offspring with DNA that is _________ the parent.

different from

the same as

Multiple Choice

A type of organism that reproduces using binary fission is

humans

insects

bacteria

sharks

Multiple Choice

Hydra reproduce by

binary fission

budding

sexual reproduction

Multiple Choice

Sexual reproduction requires two

gametes

blastocysts

embryos

Multiple Choice

A benefit of sexual reproduction is

less energy is used

greater genetic diversity in the species

it is more efficient than asexual reproduction

Multiple Select

Processes that happen during meiosis to increase genetic diversity include (choose 2)

nondisjunction

crossing over

fertilization

independent assortment of chromosomes

Multiple Choice

A disadvantage of sexual reproduction is that it is

more time consuming than asexual reproduction

creates less diversity than asexual reproduction

uses less energy than asexual reproduction

Multiple Choice

Why is greater genetic diversity important for a species?

the species is more likely to survive disasters

the population of the species will never get too large

there will be less competition with other species

Asexual reproduction of hydra

The following video shows asexual reproduction of a hydra.

Multiple Choice

The narrator says the hydra will be "almost" an exact copy of its parent. What process might sometimes cause a genetic change during asexual reproduction?

meiosis

crossing over

mutation

Asexual reproduction of bacteria

The following video shows asexual reproduction of bacteria.

Multiple Choice

If salmonella bacteria from raw chicken are left on a kitchen counter, how long will it take to grow a colony of 100 bacteria through asexual reproduction?

a few hours

3 days

1 week
