Title: Why is sexual reproduction most likely the ancestral state in eukaryotes? Post by: niikiii on Feb 7, 2018 Why is sexual reproduction most likely the ancestral state in eukaryotes?
a. Asexual reproduction is completely absent from basal unicellular eukary-otes. b. Under the parsimony principle, the most common form of a trait's state is always the ancestral state. c. The twiggy distribution of obligate asexual reproduction in phylogenetic trees makes it more likely that asexuality is a derived trait. d. Evolutionary models suggest that obligate asexual taxa are more prone to extinction than sexual ones. Title: Why is sexual reproduction most likely the ancestral state in eukaryotes?
