Make a Venn Diagram 2 Asexual ReproductionSexual Reproduction Both Types of reproduction in living organisms Pass DNA from parent to offspring
3
Asexual Reproduction Requires only one parent Offspring have 100% the same chromosomes as the parent. In other words, the offspring are exact “clones” of the parent. Most unicellular organisms reproduce this way. Mitosis Movie 3
4
Asexual Reproduction Binary Fission Bacteria Protists 4 Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction where every organelle is copied and the organism divides in two.
5
Asexual Reproduction Vegetative Reproduction 5 Vegetative reproduction is a type of asexual reproduction in plants that relies on multi- cellular structures formed by the parent plant. It has long been exploited in horticulture and agriculture, with various methods employed to multiply stocks of plants.
6
Asexual Reproduction Budding Hydra Movie 6 Budding is a means of asexual reproduction whereby a new individual develops from an outgrowth of a parent, splits off, and lives independently.
7
Asexual Reproduction Fragmentation 7 Fragmentation is a means of asexual reproduction whereby a single parent breaks into parts that regenerate into whole new individuals.
8
Asexual Reproduction Regeneration 8 Regeneration occurs when a body part has broken off and the organism grows a new one.
9
Asexual Reproduction Spores Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes form spores They are light and can be blown by wind Fungus use sporulation 9
10
Asexual Reproduction Examples of organisms that reproduce asexually Hydra Sea Star Strawberry Archaebacteria Eubacteria Euglena Paramecium Yeast 10
11
Advantages of Asexual Reproduction Organism can reproduce quickly Offspring are identical to the parent Favorable traits are passed on from parent to offspring Parent does not need partner to reproduce All organism are able to reproduce (male or female) 11
12
Sexual Reproduction Requires two parents that each share ½ of the genetic information. Offspring not identical to parent and allows for genetic variation Offspring share the characteristics of each parent. Meiosis 12
13
Sexual Reproduction All the members of the Animal Kingdom Fish Mammals Amphibians Birds Reptiles Insects Crustaceans 13
14
Sexual Reproduction Plant Kingdom Flowers are the reproductive organs of plants. Some flowers have both male and female reproductive organs on the same flower. 14 Male flower Female flower
15
Sexual Reproduction Examples of organisms that reproduce sexually Chickens Iguanas Lobsters Sharks Humans Butterflies Sunflowers Roses 15
16
Sexual Reproduction Happens 2 ways Internally (inside) The egg is fertilized by sperm inside the female Mammals, birds, reptiles, insects, spiders Externally (outside) The egg is fertilized by sperm outside the female The female lays the eggs and then the male fertilizes them. Fish and some amphibians Plants and fungi (pollen and spores) 16
17
Sexual Reproduction Advantages Increases genetic variation Off spring have different traits that increase chances for survival (important especially for environmental changes) 17
18
Advantages of Using both types of asexual and sexual reproduction If environmental factors are favorable can reproduce asexual and if not favorable can sexually Since can sexually reproduce allows for genetic variation, of at least allowing organism to survive environmental changes 18
19
Summarize Write two paragraphs with 6 sentences each describing asexual and sexual reproduction. Paragraph 1: Asexual reproduction is….. Paragraph 2: Sexual reproduction is… 19
