Dear Learner,
Good day!
In this week, you will learn to describe the different ways of how
representative animals reproduce. S11/12LT-IIej- 15
Specifically, you will learn the following:
1. identify types of asexual reproduction;
2. discuss the advantages and disadvantages of sexual and asexual
reproduction; and
3. differentiate asexual and sexual reproduction.

Figure 2.1 shows how sexual and asexual reproduction produces offspring.
In an asexual reproduction, a parent organism will not need a mate or
partner for it to produce its own offspring. The offspring of asexual
organisms are an exact same copy of its parent organism.
In sexual reproduction, a male and female gamete is needed in order
to produce an offspring. In most instances, there is a male and female
2
organism to produce the gametes but, this isn’t always the case. Finding a
partner for sexual animals can sometimes prove difficult, and so, as an
adaptive mechanism and evolutionary solution, some animals exhibit
hermaphroditism. This is when an organism has both male and female
reproductive system. This is common among sessile (stationary) animals. In
hermaphroditism, the organism may or may not have a partner for
fertilization to occur. Unlike, an asexual offspring, a sexual offspring is
genetically unique from its parent organisms. Notice how there are two
apparent sexes in sexual organisms, while there is no definite sex in the
asexual organism.

3. Budding – happens when a parent organism grows a bud attached to its
body. When the bud is developed it will detach itself from the parent and form a
new organism. Ex. Yeast and Jellyfish
