Q

What are cell membranes made up of? How permeable are they?

A

Cell membranes are made up of phospholipid belayers that have water attracting heads and 2 water repelling tails. They are selectively permeable.

31
Q

What is sexual reproduction?

A

The production of offspring from the fusion of two gametes

32
Q

What is asexual reproduction?

A

The production of offspring involving the genetic material of only one parent

33
Q

Why are offsprings from sexual reproduction not identical to either parent?

A

The offsprings genetic makeup is different because it inherits a combination of genetic material from each parent

34
Q

True or False: the offspring from asexual reproduction is the same as the parent organism.

A

True
