learning and discovery. As we
embark on this journey
together, let’s remember to be
curious, ask questions, and
 support each other along the
way. Can we do that?

(The students sat down as

pentel pen, right class?
 Instructions:

For our activity, you need to

define, differentiate, and find
the similarities between
asexual and sexual
reproduction.

You need to write your answer

You can use your gadget or any

platform to research the topic.

You are given 30 minutes to do

the activity, and after 30
minutes, each group will be
given time to discuss it in front
of the class.

The best output and group will

be given plus points for your
next activity.

Are my instructions clear,

class? . Yes, ma'am!

If you have any questions Okay po, ma’am!

regarding our activity, don't
hesitate to tell me, okay.

D. PRESENTATION Good morning again class

today we talk about asexual
and sexual reproduction.

To be able to know more about

asexual and sexual
reproduction we'll define first
what is reproduction.

Ms. Gomez can you define Reproduction is when

what is reproduction? organism produce new
living things

Thank you Ms. Gomez any Reproduction is the

other idea? Yes Mr. Pamposa process in which organism
give rise to new organism
or offspring.
Very good! Reproduction is
when organism produce new
living things. It occurs when
plants and animals reproduce to
make new individuals of a new
species.
Now we already know the
definition of reproduction let's
now proceed to the 2 types of
reproduction.

Class can anyone know what The two types of

are the 2 types of reproduction? reproduction are sexual
Yes Ms. Dizon and asexual reproduction
maam
Very good Ms. Dizon
Let’s begin first to the fist type
of reproduction which is sexual
reproduction
Sexual reproduction is the
process that involves the union
of sex cells or gametes

Mr Dela Cruz, what are the The two-sex cell that

two-sex cell that involve in involve in sexual
sexual reproduction. reproduction is egg cell
and sperm cell
Correct! Thank you, Mr Dela
Cruz,

Egg cell and sperm cell are

involved in sexual
reproduction.
The gametes come from two
parent of opposite sexes the
male that produce sperm cell
and the female that produce
egg cells

Fertilization process happens

when an egg cell and sperm cell
joined together.

Do you understand the sexual Yes ma’am

reproduction class? It is clear?

Okay let’s proceed to the last

one that asexual reproduction

Asexual reproduction takes

place when organism produce
offspring without fertilization.
It only involves one parent. It is
the process in which a single
organism produces genetically
identical offspring.

How does offspring produce in Idea ma’am. Offspring

asexual reproduction? produce by cell division
Anyone in this class?
Yes Ms. David
Yes! Offspring produce by cell
division and now let’s proceed
to the types of asexual
reproduction.

Can you give me the types of The types of asexual

asexual reproduction? Yes Ms. reproduction are binary
Dizon fission, budding,
fragmentation.

That’s great! Thank you, Ms.

Dizon. Let’s discuss them 1 by
1

In binary fission, the parent cell

divided into two cells. It is one
of the simplest and
uncomplicated method of
asexual reproduction. Binary
occurs when one parent split
into two offspring.

It is clear in binary fission? Yes ma’am

Okay class next is budding

Budding is a process of
producing an individual
through the buds that develop
on the parent body. Hydra is an
organism that produced by
budding

Can you me some examples of Yeast maam

organism that produced by
budding? Yes Mr. Pamposa

Thank you again Mr Pamposa

Yeast is other organism that
undergoes budding

Last is fragmentation Fragmentation occurs

What do you think is when the parent organism
fragmentation? Yes Ms. David divided into several
fragments and each
fragments develop a new
organism.
Thank you, Ms. David! That’s
right and example of this are
lobster, lizard, tadpoles, and
crabs.

Now let’s proceed to the

advantage and disadvantage of
asexual reproduction
 Ms. Dizon can you give me The advantage of asexual
some advantage and reproduction is the process
disadvantage of asexual of reproduction are rapid
reproduction? and the disadvantage is
they are enable to adapt the
changing environment.

That’s great! Other advantage

is
Mates are required, and it
occurs in various environment.
Other disadvantages is once the
Environment change the entire
species would eliminate

Did you understand the topic? Yes ma’am

If you really understand the Sexual reproduction

topic can you differentiate the involve two parent cell
sexual and asexual while asexual reproduction
reproduction? involve only one parent
Yes Ms. Capulong cell.

Very good! And that’s the end

of our discussion I hope you'll
learn a lot in our discussion
today.

E. GENERALIZATION The teacher will have an in-

depth discussion on the key
concepts and ideas of the topic.

The teacher will explain the

two types of reproduction
including various modes and
the processes involved in
asexual and sexual
reproduction.

Now that we’ve covered the

basics of reproduction, let’s
recap what we’ve learned about
sexual and asexual
reproduction.

Sexual reproduction involves

the fusion of gametes from two
parents, resulting in genetically
diverse offspring. Asexual
reproduction, on the other
hand, only requires one parent
and produces genetically
identical offspring through
various methods such as binary
fission, budding, and
fragmentation.
 The teacher will ask the
students again some questions
to know if they understand the Student raises their hand to
lesson and objectives of the answer.
day.
The students may answer.
Can anyone provide examples
of sexual and asexual
reproduction that we discussed Sexual reproduction
earlier? examples include humans
and animals, while asexual
reproduction examples are
budding in yeast and
Let’s review the advantages binary fission in bacteria.
and disadvantages of asexual
reproduction. Can someone Some advantages include
share some of them with the rapid reproduction, while
class. disadvantages include lack
of genetic diversity.
Reflecting on our discussion
today, how would you Sexual reproduction
differentiate sexual and asexual involves two parents and
reproduction? genetic variation, while
asexual reproduction only
has one parent and
produces identical
offspring.
