Study Notes
Asexual Reproduction
- In asexual reproduction, offspring inherit the full set of genes from one parent.
- Asexual reproduction involves no fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes.
- The primary form of reproduction for single-celled organisms such as archaea and bacteria is asexual reproduction.
- Vertebrates like Komodo dragons can reproduce asexually through a process called parthenogenesis.
- Organisms that can reproduce asexually include vertebrates, archaea, and bacteria.
- The most common form of asexual reproduction in vertebrates is parthenogenesis.
Characteristics of Asexual Reproduction
- Asexual reproduction results in offspring that are genetically and physically similar to the parent, or an exact clone of the parent.
