- Plants and animals are both capable of reproducing asexually. In which typesof asexual reproduction are common to both organisms?arrow_forwardIn animals, meiosis of germ cells produces gametes. Some plant cells also undergo meiosis, but the resulting cells are not gametes.

- How is asexual cellular reproduction different in animals versus plants?arrow_forwardAnimals exhibiting external fertilisation produce a large number of gametes. Pick the appropriate reason from the following. (a) The animals are small in size and want to produce more offsprings. (b) Food is available in plenty in water. (c) To ensure better chance of fertilisation.
