Question

5 ) Biologists have documented asexual reproduction in some animal lineages. Even in some vertebrates, such as reptiles, some species reproduce only with parthenogenesis (development from unfertilized eggs). However, parthenogenesis has never been documented in mammals. What is the current genetic explanation for this difference between mammals and other vertebrates?

Mammals evolved a process of genetic imprinting and therefore some genes from father

Mammals evolved a process of genetic imprinting and therefore some genes from father

Explanation / Answer

mammals evolved a process of genetic imprinting and therfore some genes from fathers genome need to be expressed.
