  1. Methods of Reproduction Sexual and Asexual Reproduction See reference section

  2. Asexual Reproduction: By definition: it is a process that requires only one parent and the offspring are an exact copyof the parent---a clone

  3. Asexual Reproduction: • Organisms that reproduce asexually cannot develop much variety, because they are “copying” the original organism exactly.

  4. Methods of asexual reproduction: Binary fission Budding Fragmentation Parthenogenesis

  5. Single-celled organisms (Amoeba, paramecium, euglena) which use asexual reproduction can do so simply by dividing into two equal halves. This is called binary fission. Binary fission

  6. When conditions are good, such as plenty of water, food, right temperatures, etc., binary fission is a very effective way of producing many, many offspring. • For example, the cell of a Paramecium can divide, grow, and divide again in the space of 8 hours.

  7. Budding- an offspring grows out of the body of the parent. Hydra Budding offspring Cactus Budding

  8. In yeasts the cell does not divide equally in two halves; instead, there is a large mother cell and a smaller daughter cell. Budding Yeast - budding

  9. Fragmentation In this form, the body of the parent breaks into distinct pieces, each of which can produce an offspring. Pieces of coral broken off in storms can grow into new colonies. A new starfish can grow from one detached arm.

  10. Fragmentation- plant cuttings Some plants can grow from cutting them up and replanting them.

  11. Green plants are quite sophisticated in their methods of asexual reproduction. Offspring may be produced by runners, bulbs, rhizomes or tubers.

  12. Parthenogenesis Parthenogenesis is a form of asexual reproduction in which females produce eggs that develop without fertilization. Parthenogenesis is seen to occur naturally in some invertebrates, along with several fish, amphibians, and reptiles as well as in many plants. There are no known cases of parthenogenesis in mammals.

  13. Review questions • Where does mitosis occur? What type of cells are found in multicellular organisms? • What is a gamete? Is it the same as a somatic cell? • What do the terms diploid and haploid mean? Abbreviations: (2n, and n) • Reminder: mitosis occurs in the nucleus, binary fission and budding are the processes by which the organism reproduces.
