Questions and Answers

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?

  • 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?

  • 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.
