Q: All prokaryotic and some eukaryotic organisms reproduce through what method, where a parent passes all of its genetic material to the next generation?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Are there male and female bacteria? How could you tell? Remember, bacteria have just one chromosome; they do not have an X or Y chromosome. So they probably have a very simplified form of reproduction. Asexual reproduction, the simplest and most primitive method of reproduction, involves a single parent and produces a clone , an organism that is genetically identical to the parent. Haploid gametes are not involved in asexual reproduction. A parent passes all of its genetic material to the next generation. All prokaryotic and some eukaryotic organisms reproduce asexually.

 Choices:

- organic reproduction

- sexual reproduction

- microscopic reproduction

- asexual reproduction


A:
asexual reproduction
