Open Question: Would you define an organism that reproduces asexually as Genderless?

Posted by admin on July 29th, 2009 filed in News and such

Or would you describe it as female. I’m curious, when scientists describe cells dividing, they describe the mother cell and daughter cell(s). But the reality is they are just cells dividing and have no gender.

Does the same principle apply to asexually reproducing species, take the whip tail lizard for example. They are described as being all female because they reproduce without sperm or males.

But as I understand it sexual reproduction evolved from asexual reproduction to begin with. So it’s possible that just because males don’t exists as a biological unit in a species does not mean there is no maleness in that species. Apparently most parthanogenic species have a XY chromosome system.

Not sure if I’m making my point clearly, interested in hearing your opinions.

Thank you.
