“JUST PUT ME IN RIGHT
PLACE”

Instructions:
In this activity, I will give each of you a flashcard containing different
kinds organisms.
All you need to do is to put that organism into column A if you think that
it is need two parents to produce an offspring, while if you think that your
organism is need only one parent to produce an offspring, just put it in
column B instead.

ASEXUAL AND SEXUAL
REPRODUCTION FOR ANIMALS

7
What is reproduction?
Reproduction is the process of producing
individuals of the same kind. Most
organisms reproduce by mating, which
increases the genetic variability of the
organism. The males and females have
separate reproductive organs known as
gonads.

8
 No partner?
Trivia!!!!!! No problem 
 Few animals such as
earthworms, snails,
slugs, etc. are
hermaphrodites and
possess male and
female reproductive
organs in the same
organism.

9
 What is asexual reproduction?
Asexual reproduction is the
production of new individuals
from a single parent. This type of
reproduction is generally
observed in single-celled
organisms. Here no fusion of
gametes is involved and a single
parent divides into two or more
daughter cells. 10
Asexual Reproduction
Binary Fission
Bacteria
Protists

Binary fission is a form of

asexual reproduction where
every organelle is copied and
the organism divides in two.

11
Asexual Reproduction
Budding
Hydra

Budding is a means of asexual

reproduction whereby a new individual
develops from an outgrowth of a parent,
splits off, and lives independently.

12
Asexual Reproduction
Regeneration
Regeneration occurs when
a body part has broken off
and the organism grows a
new one.

13
Asexual Reproduction
Fragmentation

Fragmentation is a means of
asexual reproduction whereby
a single parent breaks into
parts that regenerate into
whole new individuals.

14
Asexual Reproduction
Parthenogenesis

This is a form of asexual

reproduction where the egg
develops without fertilization.
This process occurs in bees,
wasps, ants, aphids, rotifers,
etc. Ants, wasps, and bees
produce haploid males.
15
Asexual Reproduction
Examples of organisms that reproduce asexually
jelly fish
hydra
bee
bacteria
sea anemone
flatworm
starfish
sponge
fungi
lichens
planarian
zebrafish
Axolotl
ants
aphids
rotifers
Komodo dragon
hammerhead sharks

16
 What is sexual reproduction?
Sexual reproduction is the
production of a new organism
from two parents by making use
of their sex cells or gametes. In
this process male gametes fuses
with a female gamete to form a
new cell called 'zygote'.

17
Sexual Reproduction
External fertilization
Some fishes

Among vertebrates, external fertilization is

most common in amphibians and fish.
Invertebrates utilizing external fertilization
are mostly benthic, sessile, or both,
including animals such as coral, sea
anemones, and tube-dwelling polychaetes.
18
Sexual Reproduction
Internal fertilization
Mammals
Some insects

Internal fertilization is the union of an egg

and sperm cell during sexual reproduction
inside the female body. Internal
fertilization, unlike its counterpart,
external fertilization, brings more control
to the female with reproduction.
19
Sexual Reproduction
Examples of organisms that reproduce sexually
lion
human
sloth
eagle
milkfish
jaguar
frog
cat
parrot
crocodile
angel fish
goat
wolf
koala
panda
polar bear
penguin
ape

Advantages vs. Disadvantages of Asexual Reproduction
Advantages Disadvantages
 Asexual reproduction produces more  Same DNA being passed down NO
offspring GENETIC VARIATION IN THE
 Asexual reproduction takes less time OFFSPRING
 Only one parent involved. No searching  If parent has genetic disease offspring
for mates will have it too
 Requires less energy

21
Advantages vs. Disadvantages of Sexual Reproduction
Advantages Disadvantages
 Variation in offspring  Requires two organisms. Must find a
 Organism is more protected because of mate
genetic variation  requires more cellular energy
 More time required for offspring
development

22
Fun facts!!!!!!
Did you know that Female Kangaroos Have
Three Vaginas?
 Female kangaroos possess three vaginal tubes
but only one vaginal opening, eliminating any
confusion on the part of their mates. When
males inseminate females, their sperm travels
up either (or both) of the side tubes, and
about 30 days later the tiny joey travels down
the central tube, from which it slowly makes
its way to its mother's pouch for the
remainder of its gestation.

23
“GROUP WORK”
The teacher will group the students into 4 groups.
Each group will select their leader, secretary, and reporters.
All secretaries will write the names of their groupmates in ¼ sheet of pad
paper.
Each group will assigned to write at least two advantages and
disadvantages of asexual and sexual reproduction in a manila paper
provided by the teacher.
After 10 mins, the reporter of each group will present their output in
front.

25
“True or false”
1. Asexual reproduction takes less time.
2. In asexual reproduction if parent has genetic disease offspring will not
affected.
3. Organism is more protected because of genetic variation
4. Among vertebrates, Internal fertilization is most common in amphibians
and fish.
5. Internal fertilization is the union of an egg and sperm cell during sexual
reproduction inside the female body.

26
“True or false”
6. Regeneration is the process of producing individuals of the same kind.
7. Regeneration occurs when a body part has broken off and the organism
grows a new one.
8. Parthenogenesis occurs in bees, wasps, ants, aphids, rotifers, etc.
9. Lion is an example of organism that reproduce asexually.
10. Asexual reproduction is the production of new individuals from a single
parent.
