Science Quiz

1. Which statement/s on reproduction is/are CORRECT?

I. Sexual reproduction means combining genetic material from two parents.
II. Asexual reproduction produces offspring identical to one parent.
III. Asexual reproduction is a slow process.
IV. In asexual reproduction cells divide by fission, budding, or regeneration

a. I and II only c. II, III, IV only

b. I, II, IV only d. I, II, III, IV
2. Where there is a very little chance of
variation?
a. In sexual reproduction c. both a and b
b. In asexual reproduction d. neither a or b
3. Which of the following is not a type of
asexual reproduction in animals?
a. fission c. pollination
b. budding d. fragmentation
4. Which is a disadvantage of asexual reproduction?
a. Requires less energy in mating.
b. Takes time to complete the process of producing offspring.
c. Requires two organisms, requires more energy.
d. No variation- if the parent has a genetic disease, offspring
does, too.
5. What is pollination?
a. It is the growth of pollen tube in a style.
b. It is the penetration of an embryo sac by a pollen tube
c. It is the union of a sperm nucleus with an egg nucleus.
d. It is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to
the stigma of the same or another flower.
6. What is not true about binary fission?
a. Genetic variation happens in binary fission.
b. DNA replication occurs during binary fission.
c. Binary fission occurs in prokaryotic organisms.
d. Identical offspring is produced in binary fission.
7. Which type of asexual reproduction in
animals occurs without fertilization?
a. fission c. fragmentation
b. budding d. parthenogenesis
 8. Which is/are TRUE of sexual reproduction?
I. Higher possibility of variation of offspring which leads
to greater adaptation and protection
II. Takes place in higher organisms
III. Examples are binary fission, budding, spore formation
a. I and II c. I and III
b. II and III d. I, II, III
