(1) These plants can reproduce sexually and asexually.

(2) Many fungi can reproduce asexually.

(3) Reproducing them asexually allows the researchers to ensure the genes of the different plants don't mix, preserving their genetic identity.

(4) Some creatures even reproduce asexually, by dividing themselves into two organisms.

(5) But because many of the crops reproduce asexually — producing clones, rather than reproducing through seeds — the banking process is far from simple.

(6) Flora, a female Komodo dragon, reproduced asexually at Chester Zoo in Britain in December 2006.

(7) Some animals and plants that reproduce asexually "can in principle achieve essentially eternal life," according to a University of Gothenburg press release.

(8) In asexually propagated species, variability resulting from recombination may be severely limited, or even precluded.

(9) Rotifers can reproduce sexually or asexually, and the decision to go one way or another depends on the animals' habitat, according to a new study in the journal Nature.

(10) Species as diverse as Komodo dragons andhammerhead sharks do it asexually if necessary, but some species, like these little lizards, don't have a choice.

(11) Numerous types of cells, such as skin cells and white blood cells, have the power reproduce asexually .

(12) They are hermaphrodites who produce both eggs and sperm but while they are able to reproduce asexually, they do usually mate with other giant snails.

(13) These and other so-called turfgrasses are botanically ambidextrous; they can reproduce sexually, by putting out seeds, and asexually, by spreading laterally.

(14) Generally the term is applied to reproductive units produced asexually, such as the spores of bryophytes and ferns.

(15) The female whiptail lizards are doing it for themselves with the unique ability to produce asexually.

(16) I could evolve from either, that is, I could asexually mutate new fish from either the fat yellow one or the tiny blue one, or I could mate the pair and select from their joint offspring.

(17) Researchers have discovered a biological shocker: female boa constrictors are capable of giving birth asexually.

(18) A report in the journal Science explains how bdelloid rotifers, which reproduce asexually, clear parasitic infections by drying out to kill the freeloader.

(19) The swelling produced by a unicellular organism that is reproducing asexually by BUDDING.

(20) They occur naturally when bacteria, plants and insects reproduce asexually, and when mammalian embryos split and go on to develop into identical twins.

(21) Wings on a flightless bird, eyes on a blind fish, and sexual organs on a flower that reproduces asexually—the casual observer might ask, what’s the point?

(1) These plants can reproduce sexually and asexually.
