Question

in which form of reproduction will pieces of the parent develop into identical copies of the parent?

vegetative reproduction

binary fission

budding

fragmentation

2. many fungi, algae and some plants reproduce asexually by producing a reproductive cell, which process describes this type of asexual reproduction?

fragmentation

agamogenesis

creating spores

binary fission

3. which process would lead to offspring with the exact same genetic information as the parent develop into

A tree growing from the stump of another tree

a bacterium splitting in two

a plant growing from a seed

a bird laying an egg

4. some flatworms reproduce thro if h fragmentation. what is a disadvantage of this method?

it is a much more complex process than sexual reproduction

it is a process that does not result in many offspring relative to sexual reproduction

it is a process that leads to lower genetic diversity than sexual reproduction

it is a very slow process relative to sexual reproduction

Answer 1

1. The form of reproduction in which pieces of the parent develop into identical copies of the parent is **fragmentation**.

2. The process that describes the asexual reproduction of many fungi, algae, and some plants by producing a reproductive cell is **creating spores**.

3. The process that would lead to offspring with the exact same genetic information as the parent is **a bacterium splitting in two**.

4. A disadvantage of the fragmentation method of reproduction in flatworms is **it is a process that leads to lower genetic diversity than sexual reproduction**.
