Asexual Vs Sexual Reproduction PowerPoint

This document provides information on asexual and sexual reproduction. It discusses various modes of asexual reproduction including binary fission, budding, spores, regeneration, fragmentation, and plant cuttings. Examples of organisms that reproduce asexually include hydra, sea stars, strawberries, archaebacteria, and eubacteria. Sexual reproduction requires two parents and results in genetic variation, while asexual reproduction only requires one parent and offspring are identical clones. Modes of sexual reproduction in animals include internal and external fertilization. Examples of sexually reproducing organisms include chickens, iguanas, lobsters, sharks, and humans.

Asexual vs.

Sexual
Reproduction

1
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

2
Asexual Reproduction
Binary Fission
Bacteria
Protists

Binary fission is a form of asexual


reproduction where every organelle
is copied and the organism divides
in two.

3
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.

4
Asexual Reproduction- Spore
Found in fungi, algae, protozoa
Airborne cells that are released from the parent. They
are enclosed and developed when the environment is
appropriate

5
Asexual Reproduction
Regeneration

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

6
Asexual Reproduction
Fragmentation

Fragmentation is a means of asexual


reproduction whereby a single parent
breaks into parts that regenerate into
whole new individuals.

7
Asexual Reproduction
Plant cuttings/
vegetative propagation

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.

8
Asexual reproduction- Mitosis
The process where
animal cells divide
This is a type of asexual
reproduction
Body cells (somatic cells)
go through the process
of mitosis
Results in an exact copy
of the parent cell

9
Asexual Reproduction
Examples of organisms that reproduce asexually
Hydra
Sea Star
Strawberry
Archaebacteria
Eubacteria
Euglena
Paramecium
Yeast

10
Sexual Reproduction
All the members of the Animal
Kingdom
Fish
Mammals
Amphibians
Birds
Reptiles
Insects
Crustaceans

11
Sexual Reproduction
Requires two parents that each share ½ of the genetic
information.
Offspring share the characteristics of each parent.
Meiosis

12
Advantages vs Disadvantages of Asexual
Reproduction
Advantages Disadvantages
 Asexual reproduction  Same DNA being passed
produces more offspring down NO GENETIC
 Asexual reproduction takes VARIATION IN THE
less time OFFSPRING
 Only one parent involved. No  If parent has genetic disease
searching for mates offspring will have it too
 Requires less energy

13
Advantages vs Disadvantages of Sexual
Reproduction
Advantages Disadvantages
 Variation in offspring  Requires two organisms.
 Organism is more protected Must find a mate
because of genetic variation  requires more cellular energy
 More time required for
offspring development

14
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.

15
Sexual Reproduction
Examples of organisms that reproduce sexually
Chickens
Iguanas
Lobsters
Sharks
Humans
Butterflies
Sunflowers
Roses

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)

17
Match it Up- From your prior knowledge, match up the two types
of reproduction with their characteristics and place the items a
the Venn Diagram in your interactive notebook
Reproduction Type Characteristics
Two parents
Identical offspring
Sexual reproduction One parent
Not identical offspring
Passes on DNA to from
parent to offspring
Bacteria, protists, some
Asexual reproduction plants, yeast
Fish, Mammals,
Amphibians, Birds,
Reptiles, Insects
18
Activity
Site atleast 3 examples for sexual
reproduction and asexual reproduction.
Then explain your answer, why it is sexual
reproduction or asexual reproduction.
