  • In vivo fertilization
  • In vitro fertilisation
  • In vitro mating
Q.6
How does sexual reproduction lead to evolution?
  • It was discovered by Darwin
  • It mixes the genes from the two parents
  • It creates a completely new set of genes
  • The genes change during fertilization
Q.7
Which of the following is an example of asexual reproduction?
  • Runners
  • Plantlets
  • Pollination
  • Taking cuttings
Q.8
Tissue culture requires only very small parts of a plant but is more expensive than taking cuttings. Why?
  • It can only be carried out in a professional laboratory
  • It requires a lot of specialist equipment
  • It takes a long time to produce only very small numbers of new plants
  • It needs sterile agar jelly with plant hormones and lots of nutrients
Q.9
Variation between individuals in an animal population is genetic but may also be caused by what?
  • The conditions in which they live
  • How much they get to eat when they are growing
  • Disease
  • All of the above
Q.10
Which one of the following statements about plant reproduction is ?
  • A zygote is formed during the process of fertilization
  • All plants reproduce by either sexual or asexual reproduction
  • Reproduction in a plant results in the formation of a new plant
  • In sexual reproduction, the offspring of a plant is identical to one of the parents only
