Question

can you sort these organisms into groups of sexual and asexual organuisms Hydra budding, bacteria dividing, humans, potato tubers, most fish, strawberry
runners, creates genetically identical offspring, creates genetic variation, faster
reproduction, requires two parents, one parent needed, meiosis

Answer 1

Here’s a simple sorting and the trait mapping, with brief caveats about exceptions.

Asexual organisms
- Hydra (budding) — asexual by budding (many hydra species can also reproduce sexually under some conditions)
- Bacteria (dividing) — asexual (binary fission). Note: bacteria can exchange genes by horizontal transfer, but do not do meiosis/sexual reproduction.
- Potato tubers — asexual (vegetative propagation / clones; potatoes can also reproduce sexually via seeds)
- Strawberry runners — asexual (vegetative runners that make clonal plants)

Sexual organisms
- Humans — sexual (gametes formed by meiosis; normally two parents required)
- Most fish — sexual (most species reproduce sexually by producing gametes and fertilization; a few fish species can show parthenogenesis or other exceptions)

Trait mapping
- Creates genetically identical offspring — asexual (cloning; subject to mutation but no reshuffling of parental genomes)
- Creates genetic variation — sexual (meiosis + fertilization mixes alleles)
- Faster reproduction — generally asexual (no mate required; many simple organisms reproduce very quickly)
- Requires two parents — sexual
- One parent needed — asexual
- Meiosis — sexual (process that makes gametes; not used in bacterial binary fission)

If you want, I can make a quick table or quiz-style matching for studying.
