Q

explain binary fission

A

binary fission is a splitting of one parent cell into two identical, daughter cells. Daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.

Q

explain budding

A

putting is when a parent makes a genetically mini offspring through repeated mitosis, and the offspring will pinch off the parent when ready to leave.

Q

explain fragmentation

A

Fragmentation is when organism breaks apart a fragment, then develops a clone of its parents, for example, like octopuses or starfish

Q

explain vegetative reproduction

A

vegetative reproduction is a dividing process that normally happens in plants and happens when in the stem or the root of the plant divides repeatedly, the structure will develop into a plant identical to the parent

Q

what is reproductive cloning

A

Reproductive cloning is when an organism produces genetic clone of an organism. This happens when a somatic cells nucleus is removed and is fused with an egg cell that has its nucleus removed

Q

What is therapeutic cloning?

A

therapeutic clothing is a type of chronic process used to correct health problems, this process involves the use of stem cell stem cells are a type of special cell that is used to develop other cells like brain cells, stomach cells, heart cells.

17
Q

what’s the process of therapeutic cloning?

A

The defective cells nucleus is removed. desired Nucleus cell is fused with the defective cell and is formed to make a fused cell then turn into a stem cell and that stem cell then turns into any desired cell to replace defective cell in a patient 

18
Q

advantages and disadvantage of asexual reproduction

A

Advantages: more offsprings, colonies of offsprings larger number means higher chance of the species surviving
disadvantages: offsprings fight for food in space when the negative change can wipe out the whole species, all offsprings genetically identical
