Question

Importance of DNA copying in reproduction in 5 points

Answer 1

*Asexual reproduction:

1.time efficient , requires less energy

2.found in lower organisms

3.healthy or little healthy individuals are produced

*Sexual reproduction:

1.variation,unique,organism is protected

2.seen in higher invertebrates and all vertebrates

3.very healthy individuals are produced.

Answer 2

♤ DNA contains information for inheritance of characters from parents to the next-generation.

♤ As a result of DNA copying, blueprints of body design are produced which passes through parents to the offspring.

♤ Thus , DNA copying maintain the features in different generations of a species.

♤ DNA copying may creates variation which are useful for survival of species over a period of time.
