Study Notes

Reproduction

The biological process by which new individual organisms are produced is called reproduction.

Forms of Reproduction

There are two forms of reproduction: asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction.

Asexual Reproduction

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves the production of offspring from a single parent, without the involvement of gametes (sex cells).
It results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.

Result of Asexual Reproduction

The result of asexual reproduction is the production of genetically identical clones of the parent organism.

Cost of Sexual Reproduction

The cost of sexual reproduction is the investment of time and energy required to find a mate, produce gametes, and nurture offspring, which can be a disadvantage in certain environments.
