Reproduction/Supplies/Entertainment/Labor In the ant colony reproduction occurs at an incredibly fast rate. The life of an ant starts with an egg. If the egg is fertilized‚ the ant will be female‚ if not‚ it will be male. When an egg is fertilized it has four stages it has to go through and develop by complete metamorphosis. From and egg‚ ants enter the larval stage which is particularly helpless‚ because it lacks legs entirely and it can’t care for itself. Food is given to the larvae by

Vegetative reproduction (vegetative propagation‚ vegetative multiplication‚ vegetative cloning) is a form of asexual reproduction in plants. It is a process by which new individuals arise without production of seeds or spores. It can occur naturally or be induced by horticulturists. Although most plants normally reproduce sexually‚ many have the ability for vegetative propagation‚ or can be vegetatively propagated if small pieces are subjected to chemical (hormonal) treatments. This is because meristematic

It starts by discussing the crucial role DNA plays when it comes to reproduction‚ its so important due to DNA holding the chromosomes that give each human unique physical traits. From there they begin discussing the process of meiosis‚ the process of male sperm and female eggs. They describe sperm being more about quantity‚ whereas the female egg

Characteristics of Life Introduction: For many centuries‚ and longer‚ people have argued about the characteristics that separate life from non-life. While some of these arguments are unresolved‚ there are seven characteristics of life that are generally accepted. Anything that possesses all seven of these characteristics of life is known as an organism. 1. The scientific term for a living thing is _____________________________________.

THE RED QUEEN A variety of theories have been proposed over the years to explain why sexual reproduction may be more advantageous than asexual reproduction‚ and‚ for that matter‚ why sexual reproduction even exists at all. For years everyone accepted the general proposition that sex is good for evolution because it creates genetic variety‚ which‚ in turn‚ is useful in adapting to constantly changing and challenging environments. But it may give organisms a very different kind of edge. By the

Lopez Kevin Bessenbacher English 101 M October 8‚ 2012 Sexual Selection For any evolution to gain some legacy‚ surviving is not enough without reproduction. In the world‚ over 90% of all the species have sexual reproduction. In this case‚ two individuals of a certain species from each sex have to mate so that they can produce offspring. Reproduction is seen as an expensive ordeal which has potential of exerting a considerable evolutionary pressure. This pressure was portrayed by Darwin as sexual

This conveys that there is a motive‚ a reason‚ for the reproduction; other than simply to maintain its species. The motive is to fight a battle‚ a continuous war. Hughes has given the thistles human features and emotions‚ such as the ability to take revenge. Through personifying such inconsequential organism‚ Hughes
