1. Asexual and Sexual Reproduction

2. Asexual Reproduction Asexual Reproduction 1. One parent
2. No sex cells
3. Offspring produced by cell division
4. Offspring identical to parent (same DNA)
5. Several types

3. Types of Asexual Reproduction
Binary Fission
1. Organism divides in half
2. 2 identical daughter cells produced
3. Daughter cells are half the parent’s size
4. Daughter cells grow, then divide too
5. In bacteria

4. Types of Asexual Reproduction
Budding
1. Small bud grows out of parent cell
2. Two different sized cells made (with identical DNA)
3. Bud breaks off and grows
4. In yeast and hydra

5. 3. Spores
spores, which are single cells, are released from the parent and can develop into new individuals (bread mold)
note: spores are different from seeds…
they do not form from sex cells
from 2 parents as seeds do.

7. 5. Vegetative Propagation = Asexual Plant Reproduction
when new plants develop from roots, stems, or leaves of the parent plant

8. Tuber
each eye, if separated, will grow into a genetically identical potato plant

9. Runner above ground stems can be cut once little plants have roots…
all genetically identical – asexual repro!
strawberry plant
