Hello!

Lesson: Asexual and Sexual Reproduction

Step-by-step explanation:

Asexual reproduction

  • No fertilization
  • No gametes
  • Exact DNA as parent
  • Prokaryotic or eukaryotic organisms
  • Binary fission for prokaryotic
  • Mitosis for eukaryotes
  • Important for reproduction, growth, and repair

Sexual reproduction

  • Fertilization
  • Gametes
  • Genetic variation
  • Only eukaryotic organisms
  • Gametes through meiosis
  • Important for reproduction

Hope this helps!

Thanks!
