∙ 13y agoThe development of heredity allowed organisms to store and pass on genetic information to their offspring. This information determines traits such as appearance, behavior, and physiological characteristics that are inherited from parents to offspring.
Some examples of organisms that reproduce internally include mammals, birds, insects, and some reptiles. These organisms typically have specialized reproductive structures, such as reproductive organs or egg sacs, that allow for internal fertilization and development of offspring before birth or hatching.
Selective breeding allows humans to choose desirable traits in organisms and only allow those with the best traits to reproduce. This process is used to create new breeds or varieties with specific characteristics in plants and animals. It can lead to the development of organisms that are better suited for certain purposes, such as increased productivity or improved health.
A population of organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring is referred to as a species. Members of a species share similar characteristics and genetic traits that allow them to reproduce with one another. Interbreeding between organisms of different species typically results in sterile or inviable offspring.
Mitosis allows organisms to grow, repair damaged tissues, and reproduce asexually by producing genetically identical daughter cells. It is essential for the maintenance and development of multicellular organisms.
No, humans and monkeys are too genetically different to reproduce offspring together. While humans and certain primates share a common ancestor, their genetic differences are too vast to allow for successful interbreeding and the creation of viable offspring.

Self-fertilization is used by some plants because it guarantees there will be offspring. This is the same reason why some organisms asexually reproduce. It may not allow genetic variation but it guarantees that their genes will be passed on and that there will be offspring.

The reproductive system's main purpose is to enable organisms to produce offspring through the fusion of sex cells (sperm and egg) in sexual reproduction. This system includes organs such as the testes, ovaries, and uterus that facilitate the production, storage, and transport of sex cells.
Organisms that produce sexually undergo genetic recombination during the formation of gametes, leading to offspring with a combination of genetic material from both parents. This process increases genetic diversity among offspring, enhancing their adaptability to changing environments. In contrast, organisms that reproduce asexually create genetically identical offspring because they do not undergo genetic recombination.
The process by which organisms change over time as a result of changes in heritable physical or behavioral traits. Changes that allow an organism to better adapt to its environment will help it survive and have more offspring.
Farmers use selective breeding to produce offspring with desired traits such as higher yield, disease resistance, and better taste. They carefully choose parent organisms with these traits and allow them to breed, resulting in offspring that inherit those desired characteristics. This process helps improve the genetics of crops and animals over generations.
By selectively breeding animals with desired traits over generations, breeders can perpetuate those traits. The passing on of genes from parents to offspring allows breeders to create animals with specific characteristics such as temperament, size, color, and performance abilities by controlling which individuals reproduce.
