Understanding Asexual Reproduction in Living Organisms

Explore the fascinating world of asexual reproduction in living organisms through informative images and descriptions covering various forms such as binary fission, budding, fragmentation, and regeneration. Learn how asexual reproduction differs from sexual reproduction and discover examples of organisms that reproduce asexually, including Hydra, Sea Stars, Euglena, and Yeast.

2. Make a Venn Diagram Asexual Reproduction Sexual Reproduction Both Types of reproduction in living organisms Pass DNA from parent to offspring 2

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 Paramecium Bacteria Protists Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction where every organelle is copied and the organism divides in two. 4

5. Asexual Reproduction Plant cuttings 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. 5

6. Asexual Reproduction Budding Hydra Movie Budding is a means of asexual reproduction whereby a new individual develops from an outgrowth of a parent, splits off, and lives independently. 6

7. Asexual Reproduction http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:u17MaSt6Xu8DoM:http://www.americanaquariumproducts.com/images/graphics/planaria.jpg Fragmentation Fragmentation is a means of asexual reproduction whereby a single parent breaks into parts that regenerate into whole new individuals. 7

8. Asexual Reproduction Regeneration Regeneration occurs when a body part has broken off and the organism grows a new one. 8

10. Sexual Reproduction Requires two parents that each share of the genetic information. Offspring share the characteristics of each parent. Meiosis 10

11. Sexual Reproduction All the members of the Animal Kingdom Fish Mammals Amphibians Birds Reptiles Insects Crustaceans 11

12. Sexual Reproduction Plant Kingdom Flowers are the reproductive organs of plants. Male flower Female flower Some flowers have both male and female reproductive organs on the same flower. 12

14. 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) 14

15. Summarize Describe the advantages of each type of reproduction. Describe the disadvantages of each type of reproduction. 15
