This document discusses and compares asexual and sexual reproduction. It defines asexual reproduction as reproduction by one parent that results in offspring that are identical to the parent through cell division. Sexual reproduction is defined as reproduction between two parents that involves the fertilization of an egg by a sperm, resulting in offspring that have a mix of both parents' DNA and thus look different than the parents. The document outlines the key differences and various types of both asexual reproduction, such as budding and binary fission, and sexual reproduction.

1. Asexual vs. Sexual
Reproduction
Mrs. Deeley

2. I Can …
 Define asexual reproduction
 Define sexual reproduction
 Define asexual reproduction
 Describe the differences between sexual
and asexual reproduction

3. I Will
 Read and study PowerPoint & Video
 Complete a Venn Diagram (asexual reproduction
and sexual reproduction)
 Illustrate (draw pictures) fertilization, budding,
sexual reproduction, and asexual reproduction
(be careful!!!)
 Explain and describe fertilization, budding,
asexual reproduction, and sexual reproduction
(working with a partner/small group)
 Write a paragraph (at least 5 sentences)
explaining how offspring from sexual
reproduction have more genetic differences than
offspring from asexual reproduction

4. Sexual Reproduction
 Sexual
Reproduction
 1. 2 parents
 2. Sex cells: sperm and
egg
 3. Sperm and egg join=
fertilization
 4. Offspring look different
from parent (mixed DNA)

5. Sexual Reproduction
 Sexual
Reproduction
 5. Examples
– Humans, some plants,
mammals, fish, reptiles, etc.

6. Sexual Reproduction
Fertilization: part of the process of sexual reproduction in which
a male reproductive cell and a female reproductive cell combine
to form a new cell that can develop into a new organism.

7. Asexual Reproduction
 Asexual
Reproduction
 1. One parent
 2. No sex cells
 3. Offspring produced by
cell division
 4. Offspring identical to
parent (same DNA)
 5. Several types in plants
and animals

8. Types of Asexual
Reproduction
 Binary
Fission
 1. Organism divides in half
 2. 2 identical daughter cells
produced
 3. Daughter cells are half
the parent’s size
 4. Daughter cells grow,
then divide too
 5. In bacteria

9. Types of Asexual
Reproduction
 Budding  1. Small bud grows out of
parent cell
 2. Two different sized cells
made (with identical DNA)
 3. Bud breaks off and
grows
 4. In yeast and hydra

10. Types of Asexual
Reproduction
 Regeneration  1. Repair/ grow lost body
parts
 2. Left over cells divide to
make more cells
 3. Lobsters, starfish, lizards

 Please note: there are a limited number
of headsets available in the classroom
so you will need to be patient.
 If headphones are not available when
you are, continue working on other parts
of the assignment …be sure and sign
the headphone sign up sheet to keep
your place in line.
