1 Types of Reproduction Asexual Sexual

2 Purpose of Reproduction To make sure a species can continue. –Definition: Reproduction is the process by which an organism produces others of its same kind.

3 Asexual Reproduction A new organism (sometimes more than one) is produced from one organism. The offspring will have hereditary material uniform with the hereditary material of the parent organism. This means they will be genetically alike.

4 Types of Asexual Reproduction Budding Regeneration Fission (Binary fission)

5 Budding Process by which a new, duplicate plant or animal begins to form at the side of the parent and enlarges until an individual is created. Very common in plants;

14 Sexual Reproduction Requires two sex cells – egg and sperm The egg and sperm join to form an entirely new organism –Different from the parent organism

15 IMPORTANT! Asexual reproduction results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent organism Sexual reproduction results in offspring that are genetically different from the parent organisms
