Differentiate sexual and asexual reproduction

Answer 1

sexual reproduction have phermone signals which say yes or no to proceed and produce. Cell fusion via connections between hyphae (plasmogamy)
Heterokaryogamy- intervening stage in which cells have haploid nuclei from two parents. Nuclear fusion (karyogamy) teh diploid phase following karyogamy is short lived and undergoes meiosis producing haploid spores.
Asexual reproduction. Many fungi can reproduce asexually. Molds and yeasts are called imperfect fungi because they can only undergo asexual reproduction and NOT SEXUAL.

Answer 2

Asexual reproduction takes place when cells or hyphae break off from a fungus and begin to grow on their own. Some fungi also produce spores, which can scatter and grow into new organisms.
asexual reproduction in fungi may take place through spore formation conidiophore,by budding etc.

Answer 3

Asexual Reproduction

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which an individual organism produces an offspring that is genetically identical to itself through a process called mitosis.

Sexual Reproduction

Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which two individual organisms produce offspring that exhibit a combination of the genetics of both parents. The process in which the offspring are produced is called meiosis.

Answer 4

The main difference is in the genome of the offspring. Asexual reproduction leads to offspring that are nearly genetically identical to the parent. Sexual reproduction involves a shuffling of the genome to produce genetic variants in the offspring. In asexual reproduction, the spores are produced by mitosis. In sexual reproduction, the spores are the result of meiosis (though they can divide mitotically afterwards to produce many spores from a single meiotic division).

Answer 5

Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes from two parent organisms, resulting in genetic variation among offspring. Asexual reproduction involves the production of offspring from a single parent, resulting in genetically identical offspring.

Answer 6

asexual reproduction in fungi may take place through spore formation conidiophore,by budding etc.

Answer 7

fungi have sexual reproduction.
