Q.

Question 17

Why is reproduction important for organisms?

Q.

Will seeds grow without soil?

Q. How does reproduction help in providing stability to the species?

Q.

Why do organisms reproduce?

After all, reproduction is not necessary to maintain the of the individual organisms, unlike the essential life of an individual respiration, or excretion.on the other hand, if individual organism is going to create more individuals , a lot of its energy will be spent in the process.

So why should an individual organism waste energy on a process it does not need to stay alive?

Q.

Why does meiosis occur during the formation of gametes?

1. It allows the number of gametes to be doubled.

2. It prevents asexual reproduction in the life cycle.

3. It prevents variations appearing in the phenotype.

4. It produces haploid gametes in preparation for fertilization.

Q.

1. Protein synthesis

2. Release of hormones

3. Puberty

4. DNA Replication

Q.

Reproduction is linked to the stability of the population of a species. Justify with the statement.

Q.

Q.

Give the full form of DNA.

Q. Do all organisms give birth to individuals like humans ?

Q. What are the basic events of reproduction

Q.

Can snails pollinate the flowers? What do you call such pollination?

Q.

What is the structural unit of DNA?

Q.

How do insects help in pollination?

2. Meiosis produces gametes for sexual reproduction
3. Only multicellular organisms undergo sexual reproduction
4. Sexual reproduction takes place in all the organisms

Q.

Reproduction is important as it allows _______.

Q.

What is reproduction?

Q.

Why do organisms reproduce at the expense of energy even though reproduction is not as vital as respiration, excretion etc.?

1. To make organisms more vulnerable to natural changes.

2. To generate more energy and efficiency in the life processes.

3. It’s a basic instinct which cannot be avoided.

4. To continue their species.
