Document Summary

October 7, 2014: introduction, hereditary- transmission of traits from one generation to the next (inheritance, variation- difference between individuals, genetics- field that studies heredity, gametes- the reproductive cells. Transmit the genes from one generation to the next. Types of reproduction: aesexual reproduction by species, single parent produced an offspring. Multicellular organisms piece will bud off or fragment (varies: offspring are a result of mitotic division. One diploid (2n) parents produce diploid offspring. One haploid (n) parent produce haploid offspring. All daughter cells are genetically identical and copies of parents: clones are being produced, all copies of the genes are going to be passed to the offspring, advantages gametes. No time or energy spent on finding a mate. Occurs in organisms that are well adapted to their environment. Produce lots of offspring because they can survive there without fusion of: sexual reproduction always diploid* Then the total number of chromosomes would continue to.

there could be more than one answer or no answer at all

1. _____ Females that reproduce sexually versus asexually are said to incur a âtwo-fold cost of sexual reproduction.â Which of the following costs are associated with sexual reproduction for females?

A) MALES! That do-nothing lot really does not directly contribute offspring to the next generation. Females would be better off making all daughters.

B) FEMALES! In most natural settings, those daughters compete with their mothers for potential mates and resources needed to successfully reproduce.

C) MITOSIS! Since sexual reproduction can produce many more offspring than asexual reproduction, there are energetic costs associated with the mitotic divisions required to produce those offspring.

D) MEIOSIS! Every time a gamete is produced, the parent loses a little bit of itself. Half to be precise since only half of its genes are passed on to sexually produced offspring.

E) DIVERSITY! Mothers maximize fitness if all offspring are genetically just like them. Sexual reproduction causes genetic diversity, which ultimately lowers the fitness of both parents.

Just to keep you in practice, a couple of the much beloved multiple multiple choiceâ¦
