Fungus - Reproduction, Nutrition, Decomposition: The mushrooms, because of their size, are easily seen in fields and forests and consequently were the only fungi known before the invention of the microscope in the 17th century. The microscope made it pos
Fungus - Reproduction, Spores, Hyphae: In the life cycle of a sexually reproducing fungus, a haploid phase alternates with a diploid phase. The haploid phase ends with nuclear fusion, and the diploid phase begins with the formation of the zygote (the dip
♦ Reproduction in which offspring are produced by a single parent, without the union of reproductive cells, is called asexual reproduction. The fission (splitting) of bacterial cells is a form of asexual reproduction. Many plants and fungi are capable of reproducing both sexually and asexually,...
parthenogenesis,parthenogeny,virgin birth- human conception without fertilization by a man gemmation,pullulation- asexual reproduction in which a local growth on the surface or in the body of the parent becomes a separate individual reproduction- the process of generating offspring ...
FRAGMENTATION: mechanical separation of the plant body into segments (some algae). SPORULATION: producing asexual spores (e.g. fungi). VEGETATION PROPAGATION: parts of higher plants producing new whole organisms (e.g. potato tubers). reproductive cloning: transfer of genetic material of a body ce...
The cells thus formed may remain clustered together to form filaments (as in many fungi) or colonies (as in staphylococci and Volvox). Fragmentation is the process in filamentous forms in which a piece of the parent breaks off and develops into a new individual. Sporulation, or spore ...
The organisms that reproduce through asexual means are bacteria, archaea, many plants, fungi, and certain animals.Forum Question: How do you know if reproduction is asexual or sexual? Best Answer! Asexual reproduction (biology definition): a mode of reproduction in which the offspring comes from ...
exchange micronuclear material, then separate, each being a fertilized cell. This is also what basically occurs in other single-celled organisms. In certain algae and fungi, a male gamete unites with a female gamete resulting in the union of their nuclei and the subsequent formation of a ...
depending on the organism that is reproducing. Asexual reproduction is common in unicellular organisms but is also observed commonly in many different animals and fungi. Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction where the resultant offspring is identical both visually and genetically to the pare...
