Asexual Vs Sexual Reproduction PowerPoint
Asexual Vs Sexual Reproduction PowerPoint
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

Asexual Reproduction
Binary Fission
Bacteria
Protists

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
7
Asexual Reproduction
Plant cuttings/
vegetative propagation
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.
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
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.
