You have had one mystery snail for a few months and you just found an egg sack how did one snail reproduce?
it must have mated with another snail at the hatchery or pet store. Mystery snails (Pomacea bridgesii),like many other speciese of aquatic snails, can hold the sperm from mating and fertilize the eggs that are still in the snail.
How many offspring do chlamydias produce?
Chlamydiae reproduce by binary fission, producing two offspring.
How many offspring do Zebras reproduce?
Only one foal per year.
What happens when most many celled organisms reproduce?
the offspring is identical to one another
How many offsprings can snails produce?
snails do have offspring more in the summer time than the winter, but over all a snail can have offspring almost every month. x
How many different species of snails are there?
There may be more than 50,000 species of snails in the world, and each of these species are of three basic types, land snails, sea snails, and freshwater snails.Some types of snails include the Roman snail, the garden snail, and the giant African land snail. There are thousands of species of snails.
What is meant by the term reproductive strategy?
Reproductive strategy refers to how a species goes about ensuring its offspring reach adulthood. Many animals, like cats or rabbits, have multiple offspring at once and reproduce often to ensure at least some of their children survive to reproduce.
How many offspring does asexual reproduction produce?
There are many different species that reproduce asexually, and the rate of reproduction depends upon the species. When an amoeba undergoes binary fission, it produces just one offspring at a time.
Must every number of a species to reproduce in other for the the species to survive?
They must be able to reproduce, however a large percentage of the offspring never reach sexual maturity and only a smaller percentage of those will reproduce in many cases.
Which type of snail can go in a tap water fish tank?
As long as you put water conditioner in the water (to get rid of chlorine/chloramine, etc.), you can put in any mystery snail (ivory, black, blue, gold), apple snail (many times referred to as Inca snails), and assassin snails. These snails aren't the best algae cleaners, but will clean up a little bit of it. The assassin snails will eat other snails and dead fish, shrimp, etc. and are carnivores, so they won't clean any algae. The mystery and apple snails will eat decaying or dead plant material, but not live ones, and dead fish. Their biggest source of food is leftover fish food and fish waste. They also enjoy the occasional slice of zucchini, cucumber, spinach, or lettuce. The mystery and apple snails reproduce sexually, meaning that you need a male and female snail to make babies. They will lay eggs at the water line or in the hood of your aquarium. They will hatch in about 1-2 weeks. If you don't want hundreds of tiny snails, simply scrape the eggs out.
Why do many plants reproduce asexually when their enviromental conditions is good?
Because it allows them to reproduce much more quickly. When environmental conditions are poor, plants reproduce sexually because it allows them to produce tougher offspring that will withstand the bad conditions. If a plant is not healthy because of its environment, it can mate with a more healthy plant to produce healthier offspring. This, however, is a much slower form of reproduction which is why plants normally reproduce asexually.
Why do bacteria reproduce asexually rather than sexually?
Bacteria are organisms that reproduce asexually, and the benefits of this mode of reproduction include ability to reproduce without a mate partner, it is faster and results in many offspring, offspring are identical to the parent, and man others.
