    Asexual Reproduction: Science 7 Quarter 2

    Uploaded by

    Valencia John Emmanuel
    This document provides information about asexual and sexual reproduction. It defines asexual reproduction as occurring with one parent and resulting in offspring with an identical genetic makeup. Sexual reproduction combines the genetic material from two parents, resulting in offspring that are a combination of both. The document then compares the key aspects of asexual and sexual reproduction and provides examples of different reproductive processes such as budding, fragmentation, and fertilization. It also includes a Venn diagram contrasting asexual and sexual reproduction as well as discussing advantages and disadvantages of each type.

    REPRODUCTION: THE CONTINUITY OF LIFE

    Asexual Reproduction occurs when there is only one parent that gives rise to an
    offspring which has the identical genetic makeup of the parent. It occurs in most single
    celled organisms such as bacteria and some multicellular organisms such as fungi and
    some plants.

    Sexual Reproduction involves the combining of genetic information from two


    parents to produce a new organism that is a combination of both parents. It occurs in
    most complex organisms.

    1) Complete the following table comparing asexual and sexual reproduction.


    Asexual Reproduction Sexual Reproduction

    Number of parents Only one parent Two parents

    Similarity to the parents Identical Genetic Makeup Combination of Two


    Parents
    Complexity of organism Single Cell and some Complex Organisms
    that uses this method Multicellular Organism

    Example of an organism Bacteria, Fungi, Ginger, Human, Animals & Flowers


    that uses this method Onion, etc.

    2) Complete the following chart below to answer the questions.


    Name Type of Reproduction What happens? Example
    (Asexual or Sexual)

    Binary Fission Asexual Reproduction An organism duplicates Bacteria


    its DNA
    Budding Asexual Reproduction An organism produces a Yeast
    bud (small bump) that
    will grow and break
    when its fully developed.
    Fragmentation Asexual Reproduction An organism breaks a Starfish
    part that will regenerate
    over time.
    Internal Sexual Reproduction Fusion of male and Human
    Fertilization female gamete (sexual
    intercourse)

    External Sexual Reproduction Male and female release Frogs


    Fertilization discharge on a particular
    place.

    Vegetative Asexual Reproduction A transfer of a particular Herbs


    Propagation plant part to produce
    another. Methods such
    as budding, cutting,
    running, grafting etc.
    Parthenogenesis Asexual Reproduction A female can reproduce Insects
    without a male mate.

    3) Fill in the Venn Diagram comparing and contrasting Sexual and Asexual
    Reproduction. Have at least TWO specific for Sexual and Asexual, and at least
    ONE similarity between the two.

    takes place.

    4) Name two advantages to sexual reproduction and two disadvantages. Explain


    your answer.
    ADV: Produce a new unique offspring and adaptive to nature through generation.
    DIS: Can’t be done individually and female is reliant to male.
    A uniqueness of a new offspring is heavily reliant in a two parent.

    5) Name two advantages to asexual reproduction and two disadvantages. Explain


    your answer.
    ADV: Can be done individually and no reason to stop reproduction.
    DIS: Too much identical might not be adaptive in nature and no species can be discovered.
    Good for consistency, Bad for long term change in nature.

    6) Classify the following as either Sexual or Asexual Reproduction. Give the specific
    type if Asexual.

    Fragmentation (Asexual) a) A small piece of a cactus breaks off the plant, falls to the ground, and begins
    to grow.
    Internal Fertilization (Sexual) b) Pollen from a male poplar tree fertilizes sex cells on a female poplar tree.
    External Fertilization (Sexual) c) Two earthworms each produce sperm and eggs and fertilize each other.
    Fragmentation (Asexual) d) A fltworm is cut in half and grows into two flatworms.
