an exact copy of each parent's genetic material.
Answered by Bot
An exact copy of one parent's genetic material.
Answer
Cardinals reproduce sexually. Many types of fungi can reproduce asexually by producing spores. A fungus does not need to _______ to reproduce, but a cardinal does.
*
find food
reach maturity
expend energy
find a mate
Answered by Bot
Find a mate.
Answer

it decreases genetic variability.
it requires less energy
it requires more energy
Answered by Bot
It requires more energy.
Answer
Sexually-reproducing species have an advantage over asexually-reproducing species in their ability to
*
reproduces easily
increase in population quickly
reproduce without a mate
adapt
Answered by Bot
Adapt.
Answer
In which of the following situations is a plant reproducing sexually?
*
A new shoot emerges from a strawberry plant and produces another plant.
Part of the stem segment of a cactus plant falls off and begins to form a new plant.
The pollen from one flower is transported by an insect to the ovule of another flower.
A potato plant produces a tuber, and the next year, a new plant grows from the tuber.
Answered by Bot
The pollen from one flower is transported by an insect to the ovule of another flower.
Answer
Some redwood trees reproduce both sexually and asexually. Once a tree reaches maturity, it can reproduce with another tree through pollination and fertilization. The tree then disperses thousands of seeds so that some of them might take root. However, a tree can also reproduce asexually. If it falls down, several smaller trees can sprout from its trunk without the need of fertilization. Why is it advantageous for a redwood to reproduce sexually when it could reproduce asexually instead?
*
It increases the genetic diversity of the tree's offspring.
It increases the energy needed to reproduce.
It decreases the time needed to reproduce.
It reduces the need to find a mate.
Answered by Bot
It increases the genetic diversity of the tree's offspring.
Answer

Answered by Bot
Vegetative reproduction.
