The process that would lead to offspring with the exact same genetic information as the parent is:
A bacterium splitting in two.
This process is known as binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction, where the offspring are clones of the parent, containing the same genetic material.
The disadvantage of fragmentation as a method of reproduction is:
It is a process that leads to lower genetic diversity than sexual reproduction.
Fragmentation produces genetically identical offspring, which limits the genetic variation that can enhance adaptability and survival in changing environments.
The process by which a modified stem or root of a parent plant grows offspring that remain attached is called:
vegetative reproduction.
The true statement is:
Asexual reproduction is a simpler process than sexual reproduction.
Asexual reproduction typically involves a single parent and does not require the fusion of gametes, making it a simpler and usually quicker process than sexual reproduction.
The statement that best describes why one method might be more beneficial than the other is:
Sexual reproduction provides genetic variation to plants to help them survive in a changing environment.
This genetic diversity can enhance adaptation and survival in fluctuating conditions, while asexual reproduction tends to produce genetically identical offspring, which may be less advantageous in a dynamic environment.
The organism that can reproduce both sexually and asexually is a:
protist.
Many protists have the ability to reproduce both sexually (through the fusion of gametes) and asexually (through methods such as binary fission or budding).
