Answer 1

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

Question-1

Name the various types of asexual reproduction.

Solution:

The various types of asexual reproduction are

• Fission – binary and multiple

• Budding

• Spore formation

• Regeneration

• Vegetative propagation – It is a process by which new organisms arise without production of seeds or spores. It can occur naturally or be induced by horticulturists.

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

Question-2

Differentiate between binary fission and multiple fission.

Solution:

•Binary Fission:

1.In this type of fission, the parent cell gives rise to two daughter cells.

2.It is expressed by organisms like amoeba, paramecium, etc.

•Multiple Fission:

1.In this type of fission , the parent cell gives rise to more than two daughter cells.

2.It is expressed by organisms plasmodium.

Question-3

List the advantages of vegetative propagation.

Solution:

The advantages of vegetative propagation are as follows

• It helps in the easy propagation of non–flowering plants.

• It helps in producing hybrids of various plants, with improved qualities.

• It helps in the propagation of a large number of populations in a very short duration.

• It helps in the propagation of plants that do not produce seeds or produce them in very small quantities

Question-4

Name the male and the female gametes in human beings.

Solution:

The male gamete is called sperm and the female gamete is called ovum in human beings.

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

Question-5

Define fertilization.

Solution:

The process of fusion of the male gamete with the female gamete of the same species, i.e., the sperm with the ovum is known as fertilization. After fertilization, the product obtained is the zygote, which eventually develops into a complete organism

▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂

Question-6

Define sexual reproduction.

Solution:

The type of reproduction that involves both the sexes of the species is known as sexual reproduction. This kind of reproduction requires the fertilization of the gametes of both the sexes.
