Definition
In biology, describing organisms that reproduce without the pairing or joining of cells, essentially reproducing alone without a partner.
Etymology
From Greek 'a-' (without) + 'syzygetos' (yoked together), derived from 'syn-' (together) + 'zygon' (yoke). The term evolved in 19th-century biology to describe asexual reproduction patterns.
Kelly Says
This word reveals how scientists borrowed the ancient Greek image of a yoke (used to join oxen together) to describe what happens when living things DON'T join together—it's like using a word meaning 'paired' to mean 'unpaired'!
