Multiple Choice

Which statement accurately describes reproduction in animals?

Reproduction in animals is solely dependent on environmental factors.

Most animals reproduce sexually, involving the fusion of male and female gametes.

Animal reproduction does not involve any form of gamete fusion.

All animals reproduce asexually, producing genetically identical offspring.

Verified step by step guidance

Understand the concept of reproduction in animals: Reproduction is the biological process by which new individual organisms are produced. It can occur sexually or asexually.

Recognize the difference between sexual and asexual reproduction: Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes, resulting in genetic diversity. Asexual reproduction involves a single organism producing offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.

Evaluate the statement about environmental factors: While environmental factors can influence reproductive success, reproduction itself is not solely dependent on these factors.

Identify the correct statement: Most animals reproduce sexually, which involves the fusion of male and female gametes, leading to genetic variation in the offspring.

Consider exceptions: While most animals reproduce sexually, some species can reproduce asexually under certain conditions, but this is not the norm for all animals.
