Where does an offspring get its traits in asexual reproduction?
From both parents
From only one parent
From neither parent
There are no traits handed down

In Leslie's family, two of the children have attached earlobes and one child has unattached earlobes. Which of these processes is responsible for the variety of traits in this family?
Binary Fisson
Sexual Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
Regeneration
- 13. Multiple ChoiceThe offspring from asexually reproduced organisms are?Different than their parentsIdentical to parentsLike a combination from both parentsA different species
- 14. Multiple Choice
Which of the following would produce the most variety offspring when compared to the parent organism?
Cutting a portion of a potato that contains an eye or bud and planting it in a vegetable garden.
Yeast producing a bud that falls off and forms an offspring yeast.
A bee that cross-pollinates flowers in several fields.
A starfish regenerating a new limb.

sexually; diverse
asexually; diverse
sexually; uniform
asexually; uniform
- 16. Multiple Choice
A rabbit receives half of its genetic code from the father and half from the mother, this means the rabbit is similar to both parents.
True
False

- 18. Multiple ChoiceSexual or Asexual?SexualAsexual
- 19. Multiple Choice
Which of these occurs in asexual reproduction but not in sexual reproduction?
Genes carry genetic information
An offspring is made of cells
The genetic information from two organisms combines
An offspring inherits a set of traits identical to the parents
- 20. Multiple ChoiceWhat is an advantage of sexual reproduction?Allows genetic variationOnly needs one parentHappens very quicklyOffspring are exact copies of parent
- 21. Multiple ChoiceWhich type(s) of reproduction produce offspring?asexualsexualboth
- 22. Multiple Choice1. Asexual Reproductiona. reproduction in which the sex cells from two parents unite to produce offspringb. reproduction that does not involve the union of sex cells
- 23. Multiple ChoiceWhy does sexual reproduction result in more genetic diversity than asexual reproduction?Traits from two parents are combined.More organisms reproduce this way.Offspring grow in different environments.Offspring come from identical parents.
- 24. Multiple ChoiceMany invertebrate animals, such as the hydra, reproduce asexually. What form of reproduction in this stage of the life cycle of the hydra is shown in the diagram?binary fissionbudding
fragmentationvegetation propagation - 25. Multiple ChoiceWhen an egg and sperm form an embryo, the offspring that is formed will have genetic traits that areinherited from only one parent.created by the environment.passed on from two parents.learned from siblings.
- 26. Multiple ChoiceAll of the following are examples of seed dispersal except:windvolcanic eruptionsphysical movement (rolling)animals droppings
- 27. Multiple ChoiceThe part of the flower on which the pollen grains land.antherstamenstylestigma
- 28. Multiple ChoiceThe part of a flower that produces the male reproductive cells.antherstylestigmafilament
- 29. Multiple ChoicePollination can occur between flowers of the same plant.TrueFalse
- 30. Multiple ChoiceWhat is the function of nectar?To provide food for the flowerTo attract pollinatorsTo attract animals to disperse the fruitsTo produce perfumes for Man
- 31. Multiple ChoicePollination is the process by which pollencauses people to sneezeis formed inside a plantmoves from stamen to stigmamoves from stigma to stamen
- 32. Multiple ChoiceWhat is seed dispersal?plant reproductionability of plants to make foodmoving seeds to a new locationadaptation of plants to produce more seeds
- 33. Multiple ChoiceBrightly colored parts of flowers that attract insects.petalspistilsstamenfilaments
- 34. Multiple ChoiceThis is when a new organism grows by cell division on the body of its parent. The bud, or offspring is identical to the parent. The bud, when large enough, can break off of the parent and live on its own. Examples of this include yeast, hydra and potatoes.
RegenerationVegetative propagationFissionBudding - 35. Multiple ChoiceWhat type of asexual reproduction is taking place?
Fishermen work hard to catch and remove all the starfish that get into their favorite shell fishing beds and the “underwater farms” where they raise clams and oysters. In the past, they put the starfish into their boats, cut them up with knives, and then throw the pieces of starfish overboard. They thought this would kill the starfish. What they did not know was that each piece of starfish will grow into a whole new animal.RegenerationVegetative propagationBuddingFission - 36. Multiple ChoiceWhich of the following is a characteristic of a disadvantage of Sexual Reproduction?diverse offspringidentical to parenttime and energyadaptability
- 37. Multiple ChoiceWhat is an advantage of sexual reproduction?smaller populationscannot adapt easilyadapts easily to new environmentsrequires no energy
- 38. Multiple ChoiceWhich of the following is a disadvantage for sexual reproduction?a lot of time and energy is required for making gametes and finding matesoffspring can be produced more quickly than by asexual meansthe genetic diversity makes organisms respond differently to environmental changesthe offspring are genetically different
- 39. Multiple Choice
What is the big advantage of sexual reproduction?
Can quickly grow the population
Offspring are guaranteed to be successful in an unchanged environment.
Only one parent is required to reproduce.
Can adapt to changing environments
- 40. Multiple ChoiceWhat is a mutation and how does it affect genes?A mutation is a growth on an organism.A mutation is a copy of a gene.A mutation is a change in an organisms genes.A mutation is a feature of an organism.
- 41. Multiple ChoiceWhy do siblings and parents different from each other?Siblings get different amounts of genes from their mother or father making them different.Each sibling has a mutation that causes them to have different traits.Siblings use their environment and experiences to determine their traits.Offspring inherit different combinations of gene versions from parents.
