think is our lesson for today?

B. Presentation

identify the mode of the -the pupils will listen to the discussion
reproduction in butterflies and
mosquitoes.

C. Discussion
 Reproduction of Mosquitoes

- Mating and Eggs

-adult male mosquitoes
consume only nectar: the
female mosquitoes are the
ones that bite
-after feeding on blood
meal and mating, female
mosquitoes lay their eggs
in the water

- Getting down to business

-mating in mosquitoes is
quick, sometimes lasting
no more than 15 seconds
and usually takes place in
the air, though it can also
occur on a surface

-male mosquitoes have

claw-like structure called
clasper on their abdomens
which they use to grab on
to the female, the male’s
reproductive organ then
extends into the female’s
vagina for insemination.

 Reproduction of a Butterflies

- Butterfly Courtship
- reproduction in butterflies begins
with courtship, during which the
male vigorously flaps its wings,
releasing a dust scales carrying a
“sexual stimulant” to the female

- Butterfly Mating
-butterflies land on the ground
or a suitable place to mate.
After turning to face away from
each other, they joint the tips
of their abdomens.
 -the male transfer a packet of
sperm called a spermatophore
to the female’s body.

- Egg Laying and Lifecycle

-after their eggs are fertilized the
female butterfly deposits their
eggs on a specific plant species
that will provide them foods until
the egg hatched or until they
become catterpillars.

D. Generalization -15 seconds

How many seconds it takes for the
mosquitoes to mate?
-spermatophore
What do you call to the packet of
sperm that the male butterfly
transfer to the female’s body?

E. Analysis
Direction: Sequence the following stages
in correct order to show the reproduction
of a butterfly. Number it from 1-5, then I
need a one group to read their answer. - Varies their answers.

_____a. then the male and female

butterflies are ready to mate.
_____b. once the female’s eggs are
fertilized, she lays eggs on different
plans.
_____c. the male butterfly deposits
sperm intro the female butterfly.
_____d. reproduction in butterflies
begins with courtship
_____e. the plants will provide food for
the eggs when they become caterpillars.
