PRE-TEST: TRUE OR FALSE? 1. Cells in the bodies of multicelled creatures, such as humans, are reproduced in a way that is very similar to the method used by most protozoa. _____ 2. All human cells have two complete sets of chromosomes. _____ 3. In biology, fertilization is when one cell divides into two cells. _____ 4. Inside of cells, nearly all the genes are located on special structures known as microtubules. _____ 5. Cell growth takes place during the stage of a cell's life cycle known as interphase. _____
5
ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION All genetic information from 1 parent –Therefore, have same DNA as parent Results in clones (genetically identical orgs.)
6
TYPES OF ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION BINARY FISSION –Cell simply divides in half –DNA copies itself and then cell divides –results in 2 genetically identical cells EX: Bacteria, Protists
7
TYPES OF ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION BUDDING –NUCLEUS (CONTAINING DNA) DIVIDES EQUALLY –CYTOPLASM DOES NOT –THEREFORE, RESULTS IN “BUDS” EX: YEAST, HYDRA
8
TYPES OF ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION SPORULATION –“SPORE FORMATION” –SPECIALIZED SINGLE CELLS COMING FROM ONE PARENT EX: OCCURS IN MOLD AND OTHER FUNGI
9
SEXUAL REPRODUCTION TWO PARENTS HALF (1/2) GENETIC INFO FROM EACH PARENT –THEREFORE, OFFSPRING GENETICALLY DIFFERENT FROM PARENTS GENETIC VARIATION!!!!! –SHARE SOME SIMILARITIES GAMETES (SEX CELLS) EACH CARRY A HALF OF THE INFO
10
SEXUAL REPRODUCTION FERTILIZATION: –THE JOINING OF SEX CELLS ½ genetic (egg) + ½ genetic (sperm) = 1 genetically whole organism
11
POST QUIZ: TRUE OR FALSE? 1. Diploid cells have two full sets of chromosomes. _____ 2. DNA replication takes place during the metaphase stage of mitosis. _____ 3. Chromosomes are not visible during most of a cell's life cycle. _____ 4. Asexual reproduction requires only one parent. _____ 5. Meiosis does not occur in most types of cells. _____
