FAQs on How do Organisms Reproduce? Class 10 Worksheet Science

1. What are the different types of reproduction in organisms?
Ans. Organisms reproduce primarily through two types: asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction involves a single organism producing offspring genetically identical to itself, such as in binary fission, budding, and fragmentation. Sexual reproduction involves the combination of genetic material from two parents, resulting in genetically diverse offspring.
2. How do plants reproduce?
Ans. Plants can reproduce both sexually and asexually. In sexual reproduction, plants produce flowers that facilitate the formation of seeds through pollination. In asexual reproduction, plants can reproduce through methods such as vegetative propagation, where new plants grow from parts like stems, roots, or leaves.
3. What is the role of gametes in sexual reproduction?
Ans. Gametes are the reproductive cells involved in sexual reproduction. In animals, male gametes (sperm) and female gametes (ova) fuse during fertilization to form a zygote, which develops into a new organism. Gametes carry genetic information from each parent, contributing to genetic diversity in the offspring.
4. What are some advantages of asexual reproduction?
Ans. Asexual reproduction has several advantages, including the ability to reproduce quickly and efficiently, especially in stable environments. Offspring are genetically identical to the parent, ensuring the successful traits are passed on. It also allows for the rapid colonization of an area since only one parent is needed.
5. How does external fertilization differ from internal fertilization?
Ans. External fertilization occurs outside the female's body, typically in aquatic environments, where eggs and sperm are released into the water (e.g., fish and amphibians). Internal fertilization takes place inside the female's body, where the sperm fertilizes the egg, providing a more controlled environment for the developing embryo (e.g., mammals and reptiles).
