Reproduction pvms[1]
- 1. Reproduction The process by which organisms produce offspring
- 2. Reproduction  The Big Question (aka GSE)  How are sexual and asexual reproduction the same and how are they different?
- 3. Types of Reproduction  Sexual: Two parents have offspring; offspring share traits from both parents.  Asexual: One parent has offspring; offspring are genetically identical to parent.
- 4. Sexual Reproduction  Animals: Female parent produces an ovum, male parent produces a sperm. Both combine to produce an offspring, with genetic material from each parent.  Plants: Female part of the plant produces an ovum, male part of the plant produces pollen. Both combine to produce an offspring, with genetic material from each parent.
- 5. Asexual Reproduction  Binary Fission: The process by which the organism splits into two.  Most bacteria and protozoa reproduce by binary fission.
- 6. Asexual Reproduction  Budding: an offspring grows out of the body of the parent.  Hydra and sponges reproduce by budding.
- 7. Vegetative Propagation  The production of a new organism from a portion of another organism  Plants can reproduce by vegetative propagation
- 8. Regeneration  The re-growth of a lost or damaged part of an organism  Starfish can regenerate an arm  Planaria can regenerate into two organisms
- 9. Reproduction  What is it? The process by which organisms produce offspring  What was the Big Question again? How are sexual and asexual reproduction the same and how are they different?
