This document provides an overview of sexual and asexual reproduction. It defines key terms like meiosis, mitosis, gametes and fertilization. It describes several methods of asexual reproduction like binary fission, budding, regeneration and parthenogenesis. Advantages of asexual reproduction include not needing a mate and producing large numbers quickly, while disadvantages include inability to adapt to changes. Sexual reproduction generates genetic variation through meiosis and fertilization, allowing adaptation but requiring more time and energy to find a mate.

En botánica, la apomixia ó apomixis es un modo de reproducción asexual, sin fertilización y sin meiosis. Una apomíctica ó planta apomíctica produce semillas que son genéticamente idénticas a la planta madre. Aunque evolutivamente las ventajas de la reproducción sexual se pierden, la apomixis permite la fijación indefinida de genotipos altamente adaptados. Esta ventaja de la apomixis es -desde el punto de vista genético- la misma que presenta la multiplicación vegetativa. No obstante, en la apomixis también se produce la dispersión de las semillas, lo que permite a las plantas apomícticas explorar y conquistar nuevos ambientes.
this topic objectives are: differentiate self- pollination and cross pollination,draw self-pollination in plants and appreciate the importance of insects in pollination.
A second type of cell division called meiosis takes place in multicellular eukaryotes. This is a reduction division in which the daughter cells receive exactly half the number of chromosomes of the mother cells.
Meiosis occurs in the production of gametes—the sperm of the males and the eggs of the females. When a sperm fertilizes an egg, a zygote is produced with the appropriate number of chromosomes for the species—in humans (and potatoes) the zygote and the somatic (body) cells produced from it have 46 chromosomes. This is the diploid (2n) number of chromosomes, half of which have come from the sperm nucleus, half from the egg. The sperm and egg are haploid ( n); they carry half the number of chromosomes of the body cells (in humans, 23 in each sperm and egg). Meiosis thus makes it possible to maintain a constant number of chromosomes in a species that reproduces sexually by halving the number of chromosomes in the reproductive cells. Meiosis uses many of the same mechanisms as mitosis and is assumed to have been derived from mitosis after the latter procedures were in place in some early organisms millenia ago.
Figure 1 shows the stages of mitosis, and Figure 2 shows the stages of meiosis. Note that the names for the stages are the same as those of mitosis, with the addition of a numeral to designate either the first or the second divisional stage. Both divisions are part of meiosis; not until the final four daughter cells are produced is the process complete.
Synapsis in Prophase I is a decisive interval in determining the inheritance of the daughter cells. At this time, genetic recombination can occur; that is, daughter cells may receive combined traits of their two parents rather than simply the trait from one or the other. This is possible because the phenomenon called crossing over often occurs when the chromatids lie together—segments containing similar alleles break apart and rejoin to the corresponding segment of the opposite chromatid, thus mixing the traits from individual parents.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Reproduction
(http://www.spacesciencegroup.org/sootw/graphics/reproduction.jpg)
2. Objectives
At the end of this presentation, you
should be able to:
1. explain the role of mitosis in asexual
reproduction.
2. explain why asexual reproduction
gives rise to genetically identical
offspring.
3. compare sexual and asexual
reproduction.
3. What is Sexual Reproduction?
• If you were told: Define sexual reproduction;
what would you say?
• Perhaps that: “Sexual reproduction is the
formation of offspring from the fusion of
gametes. Fusion is called fertilization.”
Do you remember what process makes these
sex cells or gametes?
• Of course…meiosis.
4. Do you recall what happens in Mitosis and
in Meiosis? Use these diagrams to explain.
5. Meiosis, fertilization and mitosis
• We can show when those processes occur :
Gonad cell Meiosis Gametes Fertilization Zygote
(Diploid) (Reduction Division) (Haploid) (Haploid + Haploid) (Diploid)
Adult Mitosis Embryo Mitosis
(Diploid) (Diploid) (Diploid)
6. What is Sexual Reproduction? cont’d
So, you realize that when two haploid sex
cells fuse, a diploid cell is formed.
This diploid cell is a zygote which by
mitosis develops into an embryo in
which the somatic (body) cells are all
diploid.
7. What is Asexual Reproduction?
• If asexual reproduction is the
‘opposite’ of sexual reproduction, then
there should be no gametes, no
fertilization and no need for both male
and female parents to start with.
• Asexual reproduction is the
formation of offspring without the
use of gametes; it involves only
one parent.
8. Methods of asexual reproduction cont’d
• Make a list of as many methods
of asexual reproduction in plants
and animals as you can recall.
• Share your list with your
classmates and teacher before
viewing the next slides 9 - 19.
9. Methods of Asexual reproduction
• Methods include: fission, budding,
regenerating various parts,
forming spores, gemmae and
plantlets, using cuttings, grafting
and cloning.
• Many plants and animals use
these methods of reproduction.
10. Methods of asexual reproduction cont’d
• Many simple animals
and plants use mitosis
to produce new cells
rapidly. This asexual
division is called
binary fission.
The Amoeba demonstrates this beautifully.

11. Methods of asexual reproduction cont’d
• Budding is another form of asexual
reproduction resulting from mitosis.
• It is demonstrated below in the Hydra.
Offspring are all
identical to the
parent Hydra
in appearance
and genes.

12. Methods of asexual reproduction cont’d
• Many non-vascular plants such as
mosses and the females of some
animals (e.g. wasps, aphids,
sponges, corals, lizards) form
identical offspring asexually by ….
• Parthenogenesis = the development
of an unfertilized egg into an individual.
In organisms that have no sex
chromosomes, a fertilized egg will
develop into a diploid female. A non-
fertilized egg may develop into a
haploid male. http://biology.about.com/b/2007/03/07/what-is-parthenogenesis.htm
13. Asexual reproduction in plants
• Many plants propagate (reproduce)
vegetatively i.e. asexually, relying on
mitosis to form the new plant. Each new
plant has the same DNA as the parent and
is therefore a clone. e.g. On a plantation,
all the banana plants are clones of their
parents.
Look at the following slides to see various
asexual methods used by plants.
14. Many plants
also form buds
which grow by
mitosis to
produce new,
gentically-
identical
offspring.

18. Artificial asexually
produced plants
In vitro culture – small pieces of
plant material are grown
asexually (through mitotic cell
division) on an agar culture
medium ‘in glass’. When roots
and leaves develop, plants are
transferred to the soil.
Why do we use the term ‘artificial’?

24. Advantages and/or Benefits
of asexual reproduction
• You should realize by now that each type
of reproduction has advantages and
disadvantages.
Bearing in mind the various methods, can
you deduce the advantages/benefits of
asexual reproduction? Give it a try! Talk
within your group and list at least three.
Now share them with your classmates.
25. Advantages and/or Benefits of asexual
reproduction cont’d
Did you include these in your lists?
1. Time and energy are not wasted in finding a
mate.
1. Because there is continuous reproduction,
large numbers can be produced.
2. Offspring can be produced quickly.
3. Favourable environmental conditions can be
exploited.
4. If parent is of genetic ‘good quality’, the
offspring will also be of ‘good quality’.
26. Disadvantages of asexual
reproduction
• Can you deduce these as well? Give it a
try. Then, Click here for the answer.
(1. Offspring may find it difficult to survive in
a changing environment.
2. If a parent is of ‘poor quality’, the offspring
will also be of ‘poor quality’.
3. Because offspring colonize the same
area as parent, competition and
overcrowding can easily result.)
27. Advantages/Benefits of sexual
reproduction
• Almost all the benefits result from variation.
1.A species that reproduces sexually is able to
adapt to changes in the environment.
2.If the parent is of ‘poor quality’, then the
offspring do not have to be off ‘poor quality’
also because of meiosis and fertilization.
• The third benefit is not due to variation
3. Organisms can colonize a new area easily.
28. Disadvantages of sexual
reproduction
With all the benefits outlined, do you think there
are any disadvantages? What are they?
(Click here for a few to add to those you know.
1.Time and energy are spent to find a mate.
2. Few offspring can be produced especially
because reproduction is not continuous.
3. Because of genetic variation, ‘poor quality’
offspring can result from ‘good quality’ parents.
29. • This genetic variation is beneficial.
• Because each organism of a
population has a different genetic
combination, it means that each
organism has different abilities to
resist changes in the environment.
• These changes could be diseases,
predation etc.
• Variation is the basis for natural
selection which you will learn more
about later.
30. On this slide, note that each sperm has
a different combination of alleles.
