Let's go back to the image from the "Think About It." Use your new vocabulary, evidence from the lessons, and scientific reasoning to support the claim, "While there are many types of asexual reproduction, all types result in offspring identical to each other and the original parent." You may include a model or sketch as support for the claim. Submit your optional hand-drawn or digital model or sketch in the file upload question. ca
Genetic Recombination
Recombination is crucial to this process because it allows genes to be reassorted into diverse combinations. Genetic recombination is the process of combining genetic components from two different origins into a single unit. In prokaryotes, genetic recombination takes place by the unilateral transfer of deoxyribonucleic acid. It includes transduction, transformation, and conjugation. The genetic exchange occurring between homologous deoxyribonucleic acid sequences (DNA) from two different sources is termed general recombination. For this to happen, an identical sequence of the two recombining molecules is required. The process of genetic exchange which occurs in eukaryotes during sexual reproduction such as meiosis is an example of this type of genetic recombination.
Microbial Genetics
Genes are the functional units of heredity. They transfer characteristic information from parents to the offspring.
