Summary Introduction
Introduction: Reproduction is the biological process through which new offspring are produced from the parent organism. There are two types of reproduction, asexual reproduction, in which only one parent is involved, and sexual reproduction, in which two parents are involved.

Why is parthenogenesis in bees considered to be a form of asexual reproduction?
Select one:
a. The male drone is made from a haploid egg. Fertilization is not part of the process to make a male drone.
b. The formation of the original haploid cell was achieved using binary fission.
c. Although genetic material is transferred from one cell to another using conjugation, the resulting cells will be identical to each other.
d. The haploid male bees were made through the process of meiosis, so they are identical to the parent egg cell.
Which of the following can occur by the process of meiosis but not mitosis?
A.
Haploid cells fuse to form diploid cells
B.
Diploid cells form haploid cells
C.
A diploid cell combines with a haploid cell
D.
Haploid cells multiply into more haploid cells
The number of chromosomes present in eurkaryotic cells
a. is consistent during the life cycle
b. is haploid among sexually reproducing forms and diploid if the reproduce sexually
c. is double by fertilization and cut in half by meiosis
d. is dependent on the age of the tissue
