The process by which a modified stem or root of a parent plant grows offspring that remain attached is called
O tuber reproduction.
O binary fission.
O fragmentation.
O vegetative reproduction.
The correct answer is vegetative reproduction.
Without external forces, the third generation of a bacterium and the original parent cell will have approximately matching DNA sequences. (1 point)
12.5%
O 33%
O 100%
The correct answer is: 100%.
An established bacterial community is exposed to a dark environment for several days. Bacteria that require light to reproduce will show compared to bacteria that do not require light to reproduce. (1 point)
O lack of growth
O uncontrollable growth
O the same amount of growth
The correct answer is: lack of growth.
In which process does an organism reproduce by splitting into two copies of nearly equal size? (
O fragmentation
O vegetative reproduction
O binary fission
O budding
The correct answer is: binary fission.
In which type of reproduction do offspring form on the surface of the parent?
O vegetative reproduction
O binary fission
O budding
O fragmentation
The correct answer is: budding.
Asexual reproduction results in two organisms with
O different DNA.
O the same parents.
O different parents.
O the same DNA.
The correct answer is: the same DNA.
If a bacterium can survive in high temperatures, its daughter cells (1 point)
O are less likely to be able to survive in high temperatures.
O are more likely to be able to survive in high temperatures.
O must adapt to survive in high temperatures.
cen survive in high temperatures.
The correct answer is: are more likely to be able to survive in high temperatures.
Environmental conditions, including oxygen, light, temperature, and moisture, influence the (1 point) of bacterial reproduction.
O frequency
Orale
O lyps
O quality
The correct answer is: frequency.
Sexual reproduction produces genetic variation. Why could that be seen as a benefit? (1 point)
New combinations make for different-looking organisms, so individuals are different and can easily be identified as unique.
Variation could lead to traits that increase an individual's ability to survive, so it can reproduce and pass on its genes
Heving individuals that look different allows predators to target specific individuals, which is beneficial for those that are not targeted
By appearing different from others, indeeduals are better able to attract a mate and stand out from the
The correct answer is: Variation could lead to traits that increase an individual's ability to survive, so it can reproduce and pass on its genes.
A student is arguing that asexual reproduction is more beneficial for individuals because it increases their survivability and reproductive success. Which statement least supports this argument? (1 point)
O Individuals produce many offspring at once because the rate of survival of their offspring is low.
O Individuals can reproduce quickly and proliferate at high rates
O Individuals do not need to waste time and resources finding a mate.
O Individuals go on to reproduce again more quickly since they are not investing time in caring for offspring.
The statement that least supports the argument is: Individuals produce many offspring at once because the rate of survival of their offspring is low.
This statement suggests that the low survival rate of offspring in asexual reproduction might counteract the argument that asexual reproduction increases survivability and reproductive success.
A mother cat is a calico, with orange, black, and white fur. She has three kittens-an orange female, a black and orange female, and a black female. Did she reproduce sexually or asexually? Choose the option that has the best evidence to support your choice (1 point)
Sexually, because each kitton looks different than the mother, which is a sign of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction.
Asexually, because all of her kittens have the same colors as her, because they only inherited her genes
O Sexually, because cats are multicellular, and multicellular organisms typically reproduce sexually
O Asexually, because all of her kittens are females like her, which occurs with asexual reproduction
The best evidence to support the choice of sexually reproducing is: Sexually, because each kitten looks different than the mother, which is a sign of genetic variation due to sexual reproduction.
Blonde hair (b) is recessive, and brown hair (B) is dominant
A parent has brown hair (Bb). Their first child has blonde hair (bb) Ther second child
What must the other parent have (hair color and allele combination?
(1 point)
O Bb. brown hair
OB6, brown hair
Obb, blonde hair
OBb. blonde hair
The other parent must have the allele combination Bb and have brown hair. So the correct answer is: Bb, brown hair.
Of the following traits, which one is acquired (ie, not inherited)?
O eye shape.
O number and presence of dimples
fingemail length
O skin tone
