4. Explain: What is fragmentation? Give a description of how it works.

4. Explain: What is fragmentation? Give a description of how it works.

4. Explain: What is fragmentation? Give a description of how it works.

A complete new individual grows from a broken off piece of its parent.

A planarian attaches its tail to a surface and pulls apart.

Then each part grows into a complete organism.

5. Evaluate: If banana farmers began to breed bananas through sexual reproduction, would this make bananas completely resistant to disease? Explain your answer.

No, but it would increase genetic variation and thus increase the chance of resistance.

• Reptile shell reduces water loss; Amphibian

• No outer protection from water loss is needed

• Sperm can fertilize eggs by swimming to them through the water.
