Week 8 of Extended Learning: This week you are to explore the various types of reproduction (asexual and sexual reproduction). Once you've mastered the differences between the two types, focus on the various types of asexual reproduction and how one (plants and animals) can produce a whole organism in various ways. Then try the following assessment:
1. Identify the following descriptions as asexual or sexual reproduction or do they belong to both forms of reproduction.
a. ______________________ This form of reproduction requires two parents or two sex cells to produce an offspring.
b. ______________________ This form of reproduction produces offspring.
c. ______________________ This form of reproduction occurs in lower organisms.
d. ______________________ This form of reproduction occurs in more complex organisms.
e. ______________________ This is a quick method of reproduction (quick time period to reproduce).
f. ______________________ This form of reproduction produce offspring that grows and develops.
g. ______________________ This form of reproduction provides more genetic variation in offspring.
h. ______________________ This form of reproduction requires only one parent/organism to reproduce.
i. ______________________ This is a longer method of reproduction (slower time period).
j. ______________________ This form of reproduction uses DNA to create new life.
k. ______________________ This form of reproduction occurs in more complex organisms.
Stay safe and healthy! Enjoy the nice weather coming our way this week!
