SPI 7.4.1—Classify methods of reproduction as sexual or asexual
Purpose of Reproduction • To make sure a species can continue. • Definition: Reproduction is the process by which an organism produces others of its same kind.
Asexual Reproduction • A new organism (sometimes more than one) is produced from one organism. • The offspring will have hereditary material uniform with the hereditary material of the parent organism. (The offspring will be genetically the same as the parent)
Types of Asexual Reproduction • Budding • Regeneration or Fragmentation • Fission (Binary fission) • Spores • Vegetative Propagation
Budding • Process by which a new, duplicate plant or animal begins to form at the side of the parent and enlarges until an individual is created.

Regeneration or Fragmentation • The ability to restore lost or damaged tissues, organs or limbs. • It is a common feature in invertebrates, like worms and starfish.

Fission • Also called binary fission. • Becoming two by division of the complete organism. • A type of cell division.

Spores • A reproductive cell capable of developing into a new individual without fusion with another reproductive cell • Found in mold, fungi, and ferns
Vegetative Propagation • A process which doesn’t involve a seed to produce new plants. • Examples: runners, bulbs, cuttings, grafting
Sexual Reproduction • Requires two sex cells – egg and sperm • The egg and sperm join to form an entirely new organism • Different from the parent organism
IMPORTANT! • Asexual reproduction results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent organism • Sexual reproduction results in offspring that are genetically different from the parent organisms
Exit Slip • Describe the difference between asexual and sexual reproduction.
