Title: Asexual


1
Reproduction
Whats the difference in these two forms of
reproduction?
2
Essential Question How does sexual and asexual
reproduction affect the passing of traits to
offspring?
Standard S7L3b. Compare and contrast that
organisms reproduce asexually and sexually
(bacteria, protists, fungi, plants and animals)
3
Reproduction
  • Previously, you learned that cells make more
    cells through the process of
  • You learned that sex cells are created in a
    process called
  • You learned that adults produce offspring with
    the help of which system

Mitosis
Meiosis
Reproductive System
4
For this unit, we will look at reproduction with
a more specific focus on the passing of traits.

Asexual Reproduction

Asexual Reproduction
  • Most unicellular organisms, and a few
    multicellular organisms use cell division to
    reproduce in a process called asexual
    reproduction.
  • A parent organism produces one or more new
    organisms that are identical to the parent and
    live independently of the parent

9
Asexual Reproduction
  • The organism that produces the new organism or
    organism is the parent
  • Each new organism is an offspring
  • The offspring produced by asexual reproduction
    are genetically identical to the parent.

Asexual Reproduction
11
Asexual Reproduction
  • Binary Fission is a form of asexual reproduction
    that occurs in cells that do not contain a
    nucleus (Prokaryotes)

Other Examples of Asexual Reproduction
14
Sexual Reproduction
15
Sexual Reproduction
  • Type of reproduction in which two parent cells
    (male and female reproductive cells) combine to
    form offspring with genetic material from both
    cells.

16
A Eukaryotic cell has a Nucleus that contains
genetic material.
A Chromosome is the structure that holds the
genetic material (DNA).
A Gene is a section of DNA that provides
instructions for specific traits.
DNA is the genetic material that provides
instructions for all the bodys functions.
17
Sexual Reproduction
  • Each species of living things has a
    characteristic number of chromosomes.
  • Humans have 23 pairs, for a total of 46
    chromosomes.

18
Sexual Reproduction
  • Recall from our previous unit the cell process
    called Meiosis.
  • What was the purpose of Meiosis?
  • What was our general description of Meiosis?

Make Sex Cells
One Cell Makes Four Cells
19
Sexual Reproduction
  • The process of Meiosis creates sex cells (sperm
    and egg in humans) that contain half the genetic
    material (half the 46 chromosomes)
  • During sexual reproduction, sex cells are
    combined to form unique offspring.
