Reproduction Asexual Reproduction- involves only one parent, produces a new organism genetically identical to the parent. Sexual Reproduction- involves the production and fusion of sperm and egg (1 or 2 parents), produces variation in offspring. Asexual vs Sexual Reproduction Asexual # of parents Gametes produced? Genetic Variety? Time needed to produce offspring Sexual Asexual Reproduction Only 1 Parent-All Kingdoms 1. Binary Fission/Mitosis-one cell divides into two cells… Binary Fission/Mitosis allows for no genetic variability! Bacteria- Binary Fission- splitting into 2 How fast can bacteria reproduce? Exponential growth • • • • • • • • • • 1 2 4 8 16 32 64 128 256 512 Single celled Eukaryotes- Mitosis (nucleus breaks apart and reforms 2 nuclei in 2 different cells) 2. Budding-offspring begins to develop on the parents body and then fragments off the original parentHydra Figure 46.1 Two from one: asexual reproduction of a sea anemone (Anthopleura elegantissima) 3. Vegetative Propagation producing new plants from existing vegetative structures, 4. Fragmentation the body of the parent breaks into distinct pieces, each of which can produce an offspring Sea Stars Sponges 5. Regeneration if a piece of a parent is detached, it can regrow 6. Parthenogenesis An unfertilized egg develops into an adult • Parthenogenesis: Aphids, honeybees, lizards 7. Spore Formation • Are produced by many organisms(algae, fungi, bacteria) • Contain DNA, Cytoplasm & tough outer wall-protects it from drying out. When conditions are favorablespores germinate & grow Sexual Reproduction Simple Sexual Reproduction Conjugation: sexual process in some simple organisms in which genetic material is transferred by cell to cell contact. 1. Kingdom Protist: Algae ex: Chlamydamonas • Alternation of generations: both haploid and diploid generations exist asexual n Sexual conjugation 2n zygospore Chlamydomonas- (green algae) Reproduces asexually most of the time, it can also reproduce sexually under certain environmental conditions. 2. Kingdom Fungi • Conjugation occurs between different hypha Bread Mold 3. Kingdom Eubacteria: prokaryotes • Not a true form of sexual reproduction • Plasmid: pieces of genetic material transferred from one bacteria to another • Form a connecting bridge of cytoplasm (pilus) Stamens & Carpels Pollination/Fertilization Plant life cycles • 2 Stages- alternation of generations. • Sporophyte-is the diploid (2n) stage that produces spores by meiosis • Gametophyte-is the haploid(n) stage that produces gametes by mitosis (pollen, ovule) Sexual Reproduction • Pollen production In the female gametophyte-2 haploid nuclei go to the center-polar nuclei & 1 egg. • Male Gametophyte is in the pollen on the anther. • Female Gametophyte is in the ovule in the ovary. Parts of a Flower Stigma Petal Style Sepal Filament Anther ovary 8. Structures 1, 3, & 7 make up the structured female structure called the 9. Structures 5 & 6 make up the male structure called the 10. The ovule(s) is found within the 11. Which structure is the site of pollen production? 12. Which structure is the recipient of the pollen? 13. Which structure protects the reproductive parts and attracts pollinators? 14. The structure that will eventually become a fruit is the 15. The structure that holds the anther upright is the 16. Does a plant produce more pollen or more ovules? Explain. Double Fertilization Double Fertilization-1 sperm fertilizes the central cell (future endosperm), other fertilizes the egg (future embryo) • Double fertilization Sexual Reproduction • Female Gametophyte What is 3n? 2n? What part will become food for the new embryo? Sexual Reproduction Reproduction in Animals • For almost all animals, the organism is always diploid • Only the gametes are haploid Some animals may be able to reproduce either asexually or sexually, like the sponges. More complex animals, it is sexual reproduction that is predominant. Gametes are produced in the sex organs – gonads Sperm is produced in the testes Eggs are produced in the ovaries. Gametes are made through the process of meiosis Among simpler organisms, both kinds of sex organs develop in the same individual. These animals are called hermaphrodites Why would separate sexes be an adaptation? MORE VARIETY Fertilization Sperm + Egg There are 2 types of fertilization • Internal Fertilization- • External Fertilization- Figure 46.0 Frogs mating Figure 46.4 The release of eggs and external fertilization Sexual Reproduction • External fertilization – Large numbers of gametes – Synchronized release of gametes – Mating behaviors Do animals that use external fertilization exhibit parental care? External Fertilization • External: - little or no care for young, many offspring, external fertilization and external development, young dispersed widely, can repopulate a niche quickly Spawning External fertilization Video clip from s drive Sexual Reproduction • Internal fertilization – Many male, few female gametes – Mating behaviors (courtship, estrous cycles) – Parental care – Few offspring Internal Fertilization • Internal care for young, generally few offspring at once, internal fertilization shelled eggs or live birth.

Figure 46.13b Oogenesis Figure 46.16 Formation of the zygote and early postfertilization events Estrogen production • During puberty the pituatary gland produces FSH . • Stimulates the follicle cells to produce Estrogen. Estrogen controls Female Secondary Sex Characteristics • • • • Adipose deposits (Breasts) Widen Pelvic girdle Pubic hair Onset of the Menstrual cycle Menstrual Cycle-4 phases • Menstruation: Day 1-5-uterine lining is shed because no pregnancy. • Follicle phase: Day 6-13-Estrogen levels rise & stimulate 1 ovum to mature. • Ovulation: Day 14-hormone levels peak & the ovum is released from the ovary. • Luteal Phase-Day 15-28 Follicle cells become corpus luteum-produce progesterone-builds up endometrium. Figure 46.15 The reproductive cycle of the human female Spawning in Fish Fertilization-The first sperm to reach the ovum uses the acrosome to penetrate the membrane and then forms a fertilization membrane so no other can penetrate.
