What would be a possible disadvantage of asexual reproduction? (show your work by defining what disadvantage means)

ability to reproduce in the absence of a mate

results in low genetic variation of the species

allows for more genetic variation in the offspring

Takes less time to produce offspring

Drag the type of asexual reproduction into its correct category

Item 1
Item 2
When an organism grows a copy of the parent's body
One cell divides into two cells of the same size
When part of a section forms into a new organism

Binary Fission
Budding
Fragmentation

The diagram represents different processes involved in reproduction. Which diagram(s) respresent sexual reproduction? (show your work by defining sexual reproduction)

Female kFemale Komodo dragons can reproduce using a process called parthenogenesis. Parthenogenesis is a form of asexual reproduction where an unfertilized egg develops into an offspring.
Which of the following is an advantage of offspring formed from parthenogenesis? (show your work by defining advantage and asexual reproduction)

The genetic diversity is increased in the offspring.

A population can form in a new area from an individual organism.

Offspring are more resistant to disease than their parent.

Members of the population are genetically similar.

Which scenario is likely to result in the most diverse offspring? (show your work by defining diverse)

Asexual reproduction by budding

Asexual reproduction by binary fission.

Sexual reproduction between two individuals in the same population.

Sexual reproduction between two individuals from different continents
