2. How is asexual and sexual reproduction different from one another?
a. Asexual reproduction produces an offspring from 2 parents that is a combination of two parent’s traits.
b. Asexual reproduction produces an offspring from one parent that contains exactly the same traits as the parent.
3. What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis?
a. Mitosis produces daughter cells that are an exact copy of the parent cell and meiosis produces a sex cell with exactly half of the genetic information of the parent cell.
b. Meiosis produces daughter cells that are an exact copy of the parent cell and mitosis produces a sex cell with exactly half of the genetic information of the parent cell.
