Neoblasts respond to injury through position-specific signaling from surrounding tissues and generate new tissues during maintenance, asexual reproduction, and regeneration. In the study ...

Developmental biology also encompasses the biology of regeneration, asexual reproduction, metamorphosis, and the growth and differentiation of stem cells in the adult organism.

Regeneration is a remarkable biological ... which includes organs and structures. Asexual reproduction: Some species can reproduce asexually through fragmentation, where each fragment regenerates ...

(Mutations do create a minor amount of change.) If asexual reproduction survives at all, conditions must sometimes favor it, even in competition for a niche with sexually reproducing species.

Those outlier liaisons gave whiptails robust heterozygosity, which has been preserved by the identical replication—essentially, cloning—that occurs in asexual reproduction. It’s a genetic ...
