Test: Reproduction & Its Kinds

Asexual reproduction occurs when an organism makes more of itself without exchanging genetic information with another organism through sex.In sexually reproducing organisms, the genomes of two parents are combined to create offspring with unique genetic profiles. This is beneficial to the population because genetically diverse populations have a higher chance of withstanding survival challenges such as disease and environmental changes. 
Asexually reproducing organisms can suffer a dangerous lack of diversity – but they can also reproduce faster than sexually reproducing organisms, and a single individual can found a new population without the need for a mate.

Human variability refers to the fact that there is a range of possible values for each of the numerous physical and mental characteristics of human beings. Fundamental Characteristic. Variation is, in fact, inherent in every living species.

Asexual reproduction involves a single parent. It results in offspring that are genetically identical to each other and to the parent. All prokaryotes and some eukaryotes reproduce this way.  Binary fission occurs when a parent cell splits into two identical daughter cells of the same size.

The correct option is C.
In asexual reproduction an exact genetic copy of the parent organism is produced (a clone ). Unlike sexual reproduction, asexual reproduction only introduces genetic variation into the population if a random mutation in the organism's DNA is passed on to the offspring.

Often their most distinguishing feature is their reproductive organs, commonly called flowers. Sexual reproduction in flowering plants involves the production of male and female gametes, the transfer of the male gametes to the female ovules in a process called pollination.

The main significance of reproduction is to maintain continuity of species. It also helps in studying evolution as sexual reproduction results in variation among the species.

Organisms look similar because their body designs are similar. If body designs are to be similar , the blueprints for these designs should be similar.

When gametes of two parents fuse together it results in variations. Variation is due to change in the structure of DNA.
