19. A:B: Asexually By cell division C:D: BothNeither #9 How can a single celled organism can receive its traits?

20. C. Both

21. A:B: Asexual reproductionSexual reproduction #10 Reproduction where a new organism is created when cells from two organisms combine. C:D: BothNeither

22. B. Sexual reproduction

23. A:B: Asexual reproductionSexual reproduction #11 What type of reproduction will give you the most diverse offspring (many different types of offspring)? C:D: BothNeither

24. B. Sexual reproduction

25. A:B: Asexual reproductionSexual reproduction C:D: BothNeither #12 *A Starfish re-growing an arm when cutoff. *Placing a piece of potato in a pot of soil. These are examples of ________ _________.

26. A. Asexual reproduction

30. B. Two cells that each have half as many chromosomes

31. A:B: Brown hair Attached ear lobe C:D: Widows Peak Rolling Tongue #15 Traits# of student exhibit the trait Brown hair30 Attached ear lobe9 Widows Peak14 Tongue Rolling22 Which of the traits in this chart is most likely a dominant trait?

32. A. Brown Hair

33. A:B: Because of interbreeding within the same population of Devils with identical genes. Because of breeding with Devils of other populations with different genes. C:D: Neither Both #16 Scientists have discovered that Tasmanian Devils are descended from the same family. As a result, all of the Devils in the population have almost identical sets of genes. Although they reproduce sexually, this population is similar to a population that reproduces asexually. Why is this sexually reproducing population of Tasmanian devils similar to a population of organisms that reproduce asexually?

34. A. Because of interbreeding within the same population of Devils with identical genes.

35. A:B: C:D: Both Neither #17 Scientists have discovered that Tasmanian Devils are descended from the same family. As a result, all of the Devils in the population have almost identical sets of genes. Although they reproduce sexually, this population is similar to a population that reproduces asexually. If a disease strikes the Tasmanian Devil Population, what is most likely to happen to their population? It would all die because the disease would be spread due to interbreeding of the population. It would continue to survive and reproduce due to interbreeding of the population.

36. B. It would all die because the disease would be spread due to interbreeding of the population.
