TOPIC: REPRODUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT AIM: How do Sexual and Asexual Reproduction Compare?

Asexual Reproduction vs. Sexual Reproduction One parent organism produces offspring that are Two Parent organisms combine their genetic information to produce offspring that are GENETICALLY IDENTICAL GENETICALLY DIFFERENT There is NO VARIETY Creates Variety

METHODS OF ASEXUAL REPRO Binary Fission: Paramecium, Amoeba An exact genetic copy is made with the cytoplasm dividing equally.

METHODS OF ASEXUAL REPRO BUDDING: HYDRA, YEAST CELLS Making offspring that are genetically identical. There is unequal division of the cytoplasm.

Regeneration: In Starfish and Lizards Re-growth or replacement of a lost or damaged body part.

Sporulation Spores are specialized reproductive cells capable of developing into a new organism. Fungi

VEGETATIVE PROPAGATION Asexual Reproduction in Plants Runners, Tubers, bulbs, grafting

Use Asexual or Sexual to answer the following This type of reproduction has only one parent. This type produces genetically identical offspring. The organisms in this type of repro have gonads and gametes. This type of repro produces offspring that are a combo ob both parents. This type is very simple and primitive. This type contains specialized spores that can withstand harsh conditions. This type is found in plants and uses stems, roots, and leaves. This type of repro is found in humans This type is found in ameba and paramecium Cloning What is the difference between budding and binary fission?
