Which of the following statement is true or false?

  1. Sexual reproduction increases genetic variability among organisms of the same species.
  2. Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are similar to the parents.
  3. Budding and grafting are methods of natural vegetative propagation.
  4. Asexual reproduction in plants and animals does not involve the fusion of sex cells.
  5. Asexual reproduction in plants and animals does not involve the fusion of sex cells.
  6. Hermaphrodites reproduce asexually.
  7. Flowering plants reproduce through the union of sex cells.
  8. The stamen and the pistil serve as the reproductive parts of a flower.
  9. Pollination is the last step in sexual reproduction in flowering plants.
  10. Self pollination leads to greater variation among offspring.
  11. During fertilization in plants, the ovary swells and ripens to become a fruit.
  12. Germination is the process by which the seed breaks through the seed coat and grows as a new plant.
  13. Internal fertilization occurs mostly in aquatic animals.
  14.  External fertilization is not suited for land animals because gametes dry out quickly when exposed to air.
  15. Fragmentation occurs when a part of an organism is separated from itself, which then grows into a new organism.
  16. Budding produces an offspring from the outgrowths of an organism.
  17. Hermaphrodites possess both male and female organs.
  18. Hermaphrodites can both receive and donate sperm during mating.
  19. Fragmentation produces offspring that are equally vulnerable to environment al changes.
