What is the main difference between asexual and sexual reproduction?
What is the main difference between asexual and sexual reproduction?
- Sexual reproduction copies the DNA of a single parent, while asexual reproduction unites two different parent cells.
- Asexual reproduction leads to greater genetic diversity, while sexual reproduction leads to rapid-fire reproduction.
- Asexual reproduction produces genetically identical offspring, while sexual reproduction produces genetically unique offspring. (correct)
- Asexual reproduction involves two different parent cells, while sexual reproduction involves a single parent.
Why is evolution considered invaluable for the survival of organisms in changing environments?
Why is evolution considered invaluable for the survival of organisms in changing environments?
- Evolution causes a decrease in adaptation, making it harder for organisms to survive in changing environments.
- Evolution leads to decreased genetic diversity, making it easier for organisms to adapt to new environments.
- Evolution allows organisms to stay genetically identical, ensuring their survival in changing environments.
- Evolution enables a group of organisms to change over time, helping them adapt to constantly changing environments. (correct)
What is an adaptation in the context of living things?
What is an adaptation in the context of living things?
- An adaptation is a trait that is unique to a single living thing and does not contribute to its survival.
- An adaptation is a trait that hinders the ability of a living thing to compete and survive in its environment.
- An adaptation is a trait of a living thing that helps it compete and survive to reproduce in its environment. (correct)
- An adaptation is a trait that remains constant in a living thing, regardless of environmental changes.
