Consider the given two statements:
| Statement I: | When offspring is produced by a single parent but always with the involvement of gamete formation, reproduction is asexual. |
| Statement II: | When two parents [opposite sex] participate in the reproductive process and also involve the fusion of male and female gametes, it is called sexual reproduction. |
| 1. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is incorrect. |
| 2. | Statement I is correct, Statement II is correct. |
| 3. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is correct. |
| 4. | Statement I is incorrect, Statement II is incorrect. |

There are various types of reproduction. The type of reproduction adopted by an organism depends on:
| 1. | The habitat and morphology of the organism |
| 2. | Morphology of the organism |
| 3. | Morphology and physiology of the organism |
| 4. | The organism’s habitat, physiology, and genetic makeup |

Hints
The term ‘clone’ cannot be applied to offspring formed by sexual reproduction because:
| 1. | Offspring do not possess exact copies of parental DNA |
| 2. | DNA of only one parent is copied and passed on to the offspring |
| 3. | Offspring are formed at different times |
| 4. | DNA of the parent and offspring are completely different. |

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
| Assertion (A): | The term clone can be used to describe the progeny of asexual reproduction. |
| Reason (R): | The progeny of asexual reproduction are morphologically and genetically similar individuals. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
| 4. | (A) is false but (R) is true. |

The diagram shows budding in yeast. What will be true for the process?
| I: | The nucleus does not divide at all and the bud does not have genetic material. |
| II: | The division is unequal and small buds are produced that remain attached initially to the parent cell which, eventually get separated and mature into new yeast organisms. |
| 1. | Only I | 2. | Only II |
| 3. | Both I and II | 4. | Neither I nor II |
