1. In this form of asexual reproduction, a parent releases a specialized mass of cells that can develop into offspring. 2. Binary fission is typically the most common form of reproduction in prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and archaea. 3. Organisms produced by asexual reproduction are the product of mitosis. 4. Most organisms that reproduce through this method can also reproduce sexually. Which two sentences taken together provide the BEST evidence to support the idea that both single-celled and multicellular organisms reproduce asexually? Read the following paragraph from the section "Advantages And Disadvantages Of Asexual Reproduction" Asexual reproduction can be very advantageous to certain higher animals and protists. Organisms that remain in one particular place and are unable to look for mates would need to reproduce asexually. Another advantage of asexual reproduction is that numerous oftspring can be produced without "costing" the parent a great amount of energy or time. Environments that are stable and experience very little change are the best places for organisms that reproduce asexually. Read the following statement. Organisms that reproduce asexually are at a genetic disadvantage to organisms that reproduce sexually. Which sentence from the article BEST supports the statement above? A Environments that are stable and experience very little change are the best places for organisms that reproduce asexually. B All of the organisms are genetically identical and therefore share the same weaknesses. Organisms that remain in one particular place C and are unable to look for mates would need to reproduce asexually. D This extreme growth may lead to rapid depletion of resources and an exponential death rate in the population. What is the meaning of the phrase "individual transcendence" as used in the following sentence? Reproduction is a marvelous culmination of individual transcendence in that organisms "transcend" time through the reproduction of offspring. A Individuals are able to move through time as a result of reproduction. B Asexual reproduction allows for many copies of an individual to exist. C Parent genes are passed on to offspring over many generations. D Different types of reproduction allow for different organisms to reproduce over time.
