Perpetuation of Life
REVIEW TIME!
Fact or Bluff?!
1. Biological system
can be applied to all
levels of life starting
to the molecules of
our cells all the way
up to biosphere.
2. The coordination of
the form and function
of parts (form-fit-
function theme)
strengthens the
structure of life.
3. All organisms
are made up of
similar and one
kind of cell.
4. Energy can be
obtained in
chemical form in all
the food we are
taking in the body.
5. An organism
can be
completely
isolated from its
surrounding.
There are varieties of
organism in the animal
kingdom possessing
different modes of
reproduction
depending on the
complexity of their
morphology and
physiology.
Asexual
Reproduction
Offspring come from a single parents and
has the exact copy of the genes hence
referred as “clone”
Sexual
Reproduction
In animals is the production of new living
organism by combining two gametes from
difference organisms
Did you know?
Different species have different number of
chromosomes
39 PAIRS 24 PAIRS
23 PAIRS
30 PAIRS
The formation of new individuals from the
cells of a single parents
Asexual Does not involve the union of gametes
(sperm cell and egg cell) and it does not
Reproduction change the number of chromosomes present
The resulting offspring is similar or identical
to the parent (clone) and without the need
for a mate, they are able to reproduce

A (1) E (2) I (3) O (4) U (5)
Fission that involves direct reproduction in which each portion regenerates missing
parts to become a complete new animal depending on the axis of separation
Single individual produces offspring
Pieces of the parent breaks off and develop into a new animal
Process in which an organism divides into two and grow into organism
Process outgrowth or callus projecting from the parent and eventually off
Mechanism of asexual reproduction in which female offspring develop from
unfertilized eggs
Fragmentation
• A type of reproduction or cloning where one organism is divided
into minor fragments. Once divided, these fragments develop into
individual ones which are fully grown.
Flatworm
Fragmentation vs Regeneration
• Separation of the parent cell into two new daughter
cells.
Binary Fission • This process happens with the division and duplication
of the parent’s genetic material into two parts. Here,
each daughter cell receives one copy of its parent DNA
• A new organism is developed from a small part of the
parent’s body.
Budding • A bud which formed detaches to develop into a new
organism.
Komodo Dragon
Zebra shark
• It is a form of asexual reproduction by
self-impregnation resulting in the
production of a zygote from an
Parthenogenesis unfertilized egg.
• Thus, it is also referred to by many as
“virgin birth”
The perpetuation of a new organism from two
organisms with the use gametes
In this process, the male gametes (sperm cell)
Sexual fuses with a female gamete (egg cell) to form a
Reproduction diploid cell called zygote containing two sets of
chromosomes
During sexual reproduction, the genetic
material contained in their chromosomes
combine to produce genetically diverse
offspring that is different from both parents.
