- 1. Multiple ChoiceWhich of the following describes asexual reproduction?the process of meiosis in a fruit flyfertilization of a chicken eggbinary fission in an amoebathe process of embryo development in a mouse
- 2. Multiple ChoiceWhat advantage do the offspring of a dandelion have by reproducing asexually?Reproduction occurs rapidlyReproductive competition is increasedMating compatibility improvesDiversity increases between generations
- 3. Multiple ChoiceWhich is a characteristic of asexual reproduction?Half of the offspring have learned traits similar to the parentsAll of the learned traits pass from parents to offspringAll of the inherited traits are the same as the parentsHalf of the inherited traits come from two parents
- 4. Multiple ChoiceOnions can reproduce from bulbs. One parent bulb generates daughter bulbs with duplicate genetic information. Which is the MOST likely advantage of this kind of reproduction?Population size remains constantBeneficial mutations are inevitableGenetic variation is maximizedMany offspring are produced rapidly
- 5. Multiple ChoiceWhich BEST describes sexual reproduction in all animals?Egg and sperm join togetherPollen and seed join togetherOffspring have traits of only one parentOffspring are identical to one parent
- 6. Multiple ChoiceVertebrate animals produce offspring by sexual reproduction. Which is an advantage of this type of reproduction?Time and energy is used to find a mate in the populationThere is increased genetic diversity within the populationThe offspring grows faster than one that is produced asexuallyThe offspring receives its DNA from one parent and is identical to that parent
- 7. Multiple ChoiceWhich statement describes a characteristic of both sexual and asexual reproduction?The processes require egg cellsNew cells are producedTwo parents are requiredThe processes produce genetically unique offsprings
- 8. Multiple ChoiceSome fungi can reproduce either asexually or sexually, resulting in offspring with different characteristics. Sexually produced offspring havea complex level of cell organizationa number of organelles in each cella lesser risk of having mutations than asexually produced offspringa combination of genetic material from each parent cell
- 9. Multiple Choice

Multiple ChoiceIn animals, which structure passes the mother's DNA to offspring?spermseedspolleneggs
- 11. Multiple ChoicePlants can reproduce sexually and asexually. If one offspring is produced sexually while the other is produced asexually, what will only the sexually produced offspring have?both inherited and acquired traitsa new combination of traitsbeneficial genetic traitsa complete set of traits
- 12. Multiple ChoiceWhich phrase does NOT describe asexual reproduction in organisms?requires 2 parentslittle variation in offspringonly one type of cell involvedduplicates its genetic material
- 13. Multiple ChoiceA particular peach tree produces peaches that are more resistant to disease than other peaches. What method would reproduce these exact peaches?use bees to pollinate the flowersreproduce by cross-pollination of different peach treesincrease the diversity in the peach treeensure that the peach tree reproduces asexually
- 14. Multiple ChoiceWhich of these is the BEST example of sexual reproduction?binary fissionbuddingfusing of gametesfragmentation
