Describing the different modes of reproduction in animals such as
butterflies, mosquitoes, frogs, cats and dogs

Get Started

Let us get fascinated as we enter the world of animals today. You are about to
learn the ways of animals on how they reproduce.

Our lesson will let you learn to describe the different mode of reproduction of
animals such as dogs, cats, frogs, mosquitoes and butterflies.

At the end of this lesson, you are anticipated to:

- determine whether certain animals was hatched from egg or born alive

- describe the mode of animal reproduction

1. Sexual Reproduction (internal and external fertilization)
2. Asexual Reproduction (binary fission and budding)

You are going to be amazed to learn all these. Move on to the next pages and
get going until you finish this lesson.

Happy learning and Good luck!

Get Acquainted – Day 2

Read the statements below then answer whether it is a Fact or a Bluff.

1. Love birds pine for each other. If a mate dies or gets separated from its
partner, the other one will get depressed or lonely.

____________________________

2. Sea anemone is a salt water animal. It has an ability to reproduce its

kind without needing a mate or partner.

____________________________

3. Worm needs a partner to reproduce its own kind.

___________________________

4. Cat can have a kitten without a mate.

___________________________

5. Jellyfish can split themselves. If a jellyfish is cut into halves, the two
halves become new organisms.

Comprehension Questions: (based on Fact or Bluff activity)

What animals need a partner to reproduce its kind?

What animals are able to have an offspring without needing a partner or
mate?

Get Involve – Day 3
Read and describe the different mode of reproduction of animals.

Reproduction of Animals

Reproduction is the ability of a living thing to make copies of itself or to have

an offspring.

Reproduction of animals is different from that of humans.

Some animals can only reproduce its young when it has a partner or mate.
Sexual Reproduction takes place. As sex cells from two parent animals (male and
female) unite to form a new animal. In this reproduction, fertilization takes place
when a sperm cell unites with the egg cell. Fertilization may be internal or external.
Internal fertilization happens when the male animal releases sperm cells into the
body of the female animal to fertilize the egg cell. The embryo can either develop
inside the female body until it is born alive or develop inside an egg laid by the
female. External Fertilization occurs outside the bodies of the parents. The female
release eggs into the water or attaches them to a plant or rock. The male then
releases sperm cells over the eggs to fertilize them.

Other animals are able to reproduce its own kind which does not need one
male or one female parent. A single parent organism simply makes identical copies
of itself. In this, animals undergo Asexual Reproduction. In asexual reproduction,
animals that are able to divide itself into two and each half turns out to grow into a
new individual is in the method of Binary Fission. A Sea anemone is a salt water
animal that undergoes binary fission. While in the method of Budding, the parent
animal outgrowths itself to develop a new individual. A bulge appears on the parent’s
body, grows into a bud, and eventually becomes a miniature copy of the parents, a
hydra is an example.

Complete the concept map by filling information from the word list to
describe the mode of animal reproduction.

Reproduction is the ability of a living thing to continue the existence of its
kind.

Sexual Reproduction in animals occurs when the sex cells (egg cell and
sperm cell) of two parent animals unite to form a new organism.

Asexual Reproduction is the kind of reproduction with the involvement of

only one parent animal.
