10 Questions
What is sexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves the combination of gametes to produce a zygote that develops into an organism with two sets of chromosomes.
What is the role of gametes in sexual reproduction?
Gametes are haploid reproductive cells that combine to produce a zygote with a single set of chromosomes.
Where is sexual reproduction most common?
Sexual reproduction is most common in multicellular eukaryotes, such as animals, fungi, and plants.
Does sexual reproduction occur in prokaryotes?
No, sexual reproduction does not occur in prokaryotes, which are unicellular organisms without cell nuclei, such as bacteria and archaea.
What are some processes in bacteria that may be considered analogous to sexual reproduction?
Bacterial conjugation, transformation, and transduction may be considered analogous to sexual reproduction in bacteria as they incorporate new genetic material.
Which of the following organisms is least likely to undergo sexual reproduction?
A prokaryotic bacterium
In sexual reproduction, what is the ploidy of the resulting organism?
Diploid
Which eukaryotic group shows the most variation in the number of chromosome sets during sexual reproduction?
Plants
Which process in bacteria may be considered analogous to sexual reproduction?
Conjugation
Where can sexual reproduction occur besides multicellular eukaryotes?
Also in some unicellular eukaryotes
