3. Types of Reproduction
Science 7

4. Why is Reproduction Important?
Survival
Evolution (changing over time)
Pass on genes to the next generation

5. How Does One Cell Become Two?
Prokaryotic cells  Reproduce asexually
Eukaryotic cells Reproduce both sexually and asexually

6. Asexual Reproduction Requires only one parent Mitosis
Organisms pass on their entire set of genes to the next generation
Most unicellular organisms reproduce this way

7. Asexual Reproduction Binary Fission Process called binary fission
(two) (divide)
Makes a copy of the DNA
and then divides in two
The result is two identical cells

8. Advantages vs Disadvantages of Asexual Reproduction
Fast
More offspring
Only need one parent
No genetic diversity
No individual has a survival advantage
Longer to evolve

9. Sexual Reproduction Requires two parents
Two cells meet to form one and then continue to reproduce
One gamete (the egg) meets with the other gamete (the sperm) to form the zygote (the baby)

10. Advantages vs Disadvantages of Sexual Reproduction
Genetic diversity
Ability to adapt more quickly
Live longer
Takes longer
Less offspring
Need two parents

11. Asexual vs Sexual Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
Sexual Reproduction
Prokaryotic and eukaryotic
One parent
Parent passes on their entire set of genes
Most unicellular organisms
Binary fission
Eukaryotic
Two parents
Each parent passes on half its genes
Two cells meet to form one
