Reproduction

What’s the difference in


these two forms of
reproduction?
White boards:
How does sexual
and asexual
reproduction affect
the passing of traits
to offspring?
Reproduction
 Cells make more cells through
the process of …(cell division)
Mitosis
 Sex cells are created in a
process called…
Meiosis
 Adults produce offspring with
the help of which system…
Reproductive
For this unit, we
will look at
reproduction with
a more specific
focus on the
passing of traits.

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.
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
Asexual
Reproduction
Binary Fission is
a form of asexual
reproduction that
occurs in cells
that do not
contain a nucleus
(Prokaryotes).
DNA is found in
the nucleoid.
Asexual
Reproduction
Other Examples of
Asexual
Reproduction
Sexual
Reproduction
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.
Creating offspring with unique
combinations of characteristics.
A Eukaryotic cell has
a nucleus that
contains genetic
material.

Heredity is the
passing of genes
from parents to
offspring.
A gene is a section of DNA that provides
instructions for specific traits.
A Chromosome is the
structure that holds
the genetic material
(DNA).

DNA is the genetic


material that provides
instructions for all the
body’s functions.
Sexual Reproduction
 Each species of living things has
a characteristic number of
chromosomes.
 Humans have 23 pairs, for a
total of 46 chromosomes.
Sexual
Reproduction
 What is the purpose of Meiosis?

Make Sex
 What is our general description
Cells
of Meiosis?

One Cell Makes Four


Cells
Sexual

Reproduction
The process of Meiosis
creates sex cells (sperm
46
Chromosomes

and egg in humans) that


contain half the genetic
material (half the 46
chromosomes)

 During sexual
reproduction, sex cells 23

are combined to form Chromosomes

unique offspring.

Sexual Reproduction key
words
zygote: is a fertilized eukaryotic cell
that has received genetic information
from two gamete cells (sperm cell and
an egg cell) to form a new individual.
gametes: cells from each parent that
combine to form a zygote. Male
gametes are called sperm. Female
gametes are called eggs.

 chromosomes: a DNA molecule that carries all of
the hereditary information in the form of genes.
 genes: basic unit and function of heredity. Act as
instructions to make molecules called proteins.
 Traits: inherited characteristics from parents.
