Sexual Reproduction
●requires the union of sperm
cell and egg cell; thus, it
increases the genetic
diversity of the offspring.
Variations of
Sexual
reproduction A. Hermaphroditism
B. Sequential
Hermaphroditism
Hermaphroditism occurs in
animals where one individual
has both male and female
reproductive parts. They may
self-fertilize or mate with
another species, fertilizing
each other and both
producing offspring
Sequential Hermaphroditism
occurs when an
individual reverse its sex
during its lifetime, and it
can be protogynous and
protandrous.
Protogynous
is when it
started out as
a female and
change sex to
male
Protandrous
when it started
out as a
male and
change into
female.
Activity
“ TELL ME”
A type of reproduction
where a single parent
is divided by itself and
reproduce its offspring.
A type of reproduction
where a single parent
is divided by itself and
reproduce its offspring.
LESSON
OBJECTIVES
1.Identify the different ways of how
representative animals reproduce asexually.
2. Describe the different ways of how
representative animals reproduce asexually.
Make a creative presentation of the different
modes of asexual reproduction in animals.
3. Cite the importance of asexual reproduction
to living things.
4. Appreciate the importance of animals in daily

PICTURE ANALYSIS
Analysis
1. How did you find the activity?
2.What are your basis for
classifying the pictures?
3. Does anyone of you have any
idea how animals reproduce
asexually?
Asexual reproduction-
produces offspring that are
genetically identical to the
parent because the
offspring are all clones of
the original parent.
Types of
Asexual
Reproduction
Binary fission
-is a type of asexual
reproduction wherein a cell
divides to produce two
identical cells. Each of these
two cells has the potential to
grow to the size of the original
cell.
The organisms that reproduce
asexually through binary
fission are the prokaryotes
(bacteria and archaea) and
certain protozoans.
Budding
-refers to the formation of an
outgrowth (or bud) from an organism
that is capable of developing into a
new individual. The outgrowth is
genetically the same as the parent
but relatively smaller. It may stay
attached or eventually split off from
the parent.
Budding is the mode of
reproduction in certain bacteria,
such as Caulobacter,
Hyphomicrobium, and Stella spp.,
fungi (Saccharomyces cerevisiae),
and certain asexual animals, such
as hydra, corals, echinoderm
larvae, and some acoel
Fragmentation
- refers to the parent organism
breaking into fragments and each
fragment is capable of developing
into a new organism. This is
observed in fungi (e.g. yeasts, and
lichens), molds, vascular and
nonvascular plants,
cyanobacteria, and animals (e.g.
Fragmentation
-This form of asexual
reproduction in animals may also
be not intentional. Human
activity, predation, and other
environmental factors may
cause them to split into
fragments.
Parthenogenesis
-is an asexual reproduction
wherein the offspring
develops from a female
gamete even without prior
fertilization by a male
gamete.
There are many animals that
reproduce asexually through
parthenogenesis. Examples of
invertebrates capable of
parthenogenesis are aphids,
rotifers, and nematodes.
Some vertebrates that can also
reproduce parthenogenetically are
certain lizards, snakes, birds,
sharks, reptiles, and amphibians.
Some of them reproduce by
parthenogenesis either facultatively
(i.e. they can also reproduce sexually)
or obligately (i.e. they have no other
means to reproduce but by
Regeneration
Regeneration is the power of
growing a new organism from the
lost body part. For eg., when a
lizard loses its tail, a new tail
grows. This is because the
specialized cells present in the
organism can differentiate and
grow into a new individual.
