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.
