_______1. The different types of
reproduction are sexual, binary, and asexual
reproduction.
________2. Sexual reproduction occurs in
organisms that produce reproductive cells
that undergo meiosis.
________3. Asexual reproduction involves
two parents.
________4. Meiosis is a cell division that
happens in our sex cells or gametes.
________5. “Crossing over” can occur in
meiosis I but not in meiosis II.
B. Motivation (Engage)
The teacher will show a picture where
students will compare and contrast.

Processing Questions:
1. As you can see, there are different forms of
living things around us. Do you know why is
this so?
2. Have you noticed how siblings look alike or
look differently? Even in your family, you
shared many traits such as the color of your
eyes, the types of your lips, your height and a
lot of other traits.

C. Discussion of Concepts (Explore)

The teachers will discuss the following
concepts:
a. Gregor Mendel and his experiment on
garden peas
b. Mendelian Principles of Heredity
D. Developing Mastery (Explain)
Activity 2. Observing Your Traits and Your
Family’s Traits
Directions: Read the procedure carefully and
answer the given questions. Write your
answers on a separate sheet of paper.

Questions:
Based from your observations on the different
traits of your family members,
a. who looks most similar to you?
Answer:
_______________________________
b. who looks most different from you?
Answer:

E. Application and Generalization (Elaborate)
Activity 3: What are My Dominant and
Recessive Traits?

Directions: Represent the traits with a letter

of your choice on the appropriate space in the
table below. Write your answers on a sheet of
paper.
 F. Evaluation
