Does radiation affect asexual reproduction, and is this a valid test that can be done? and tips on how I would go about doing this?

Hello Poinggg and welcome to science buddies.

I apologize for the inappropriate response and I have removed that post.

As for your question, are you planning to do a science project on this topic? If so, could you describe your project and your hypotheses a bit so the experts here can provide specific help? Science buddies is for students in grades K-12 who are doing science projects. If you're not doing a science project, there are other forums on the internet which would be more appropriate.

Regardless, you are welcome to search the Science Buddies projects (there are more than 1100!!). I suggest that you search for "effects of radiation" and "sexual reproduction" separately. This sounds like more work, but I think you will find the project summaries and references helpful in coming up with search terms for further searching here and elsewhere.

Here's a reference which I found by searching for "sexual reproduction":

If you are doing a science project, please do not hesitate to ask more questions!
