It involves the formation of young ones by the grown up individuals. This helps in perpetuation of species. LIFE SPAN ‘The period from birth to the natural death of an organism is called its life span. Life span of an organism may be few minutes to several thousand years. Life span of Mayfly is one day, while giant tortoise is considered the longest living animal (about 100 to 150 years) Life Spans of some living beings ‘Organism “Maximum Life-spai Organism jum Life-span 1.

During this stage organism develops the capacity to reproduce. (ii) Maturity. Reproduction begins during this stage. (iii) Ageing and Senescence. Ageing 's progressive deterioration in the body of the organisms. The terminal irreversible stage of ageing is called senescence. (iv) Death. Senescence finally leads to death. During this stage there is final permanent cessation of all vital activities of an organism. The change over from one stage to another is determined by genetic as well as environmental factors. fe BUTTERFLY FRUIT FAY (1-2Weeksy (One Monty os crow five) (15¥ear5) BANANA TREE (25Yen) ‘ROGODILE (60,6215) a TORTOISE ELEPHANT PRRROT 100-'50oar)| (0-75 ¥e0s) (140 Years) BANYANTREE — sequGIA TAEE (eoo-scoven's) 3900-4000 Yeats; Fig. 1.1. Approximate life spans of some organisms. It is not essential that life span of organisms should be correlated with their sizes. For example, the sizes of crows and parrots are not very different but their life spans show great difference. In an another example, a mango tree has a much shorter life span as compared to a peepal tree, Whatever is the life span, death of every organism is must. It means no individual is immortal except some single-celled (¢.g., Amoeba) organisms which divide to form two individuals before becoming old. What is Reproduction ? Reproduction is a biological process in which organisms produce young ones (offspring) similar to themselves. The young ones grow and mature to repeat the process. Reproduction is one of the most important characteristics of the living organisms. REPRODUCTION INORGANISMS = 3 U1 Purpose of Reproduction 1. Contim y of Species. Reproduction maint ns the continuity of species. 2. Population Organisation. Reproduction maintains population of the young, adult and the aged persons. 3. Variations. Reproduction introduces variations are essential for adaptations and evolution. 4, Life. Life exists on earth due to reproduction in organisms. Basic Features of Reproduction All modes of reproduction have some common basic features. These are as follows : (i) Synthesis of RNA, proteins and other biochemicals. (ii) Replication of DNA. (iii) Cell divi- sion. (iv) Growth of cells. (v) Formation of reproductive units. (vi) Formation of new individuals from reproductive units. the organisms. Useful variations ‘Types of Reproduction Mode of reproduction depends upon the structural complexity, physiology and habitat of the organisms. It is of two main types, asexual and sexual, ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION _ When offspring are produced by a single parent without the involvement of gametic fusion, the reproduction is called asexual. As a result, the offspring that are produced are not only similar to one another but are also exact copies of their parent. Such a group of morphologically and genetically similar individuals is called clone. Characteristics of Asexual Reproduction — (i) A single parent is involved (uniparental condition). (ii) Gametes are not formed. (iii) No fertilization, Therefore, asexual reproduction is also called agamogenesis or agamogeny. (iv) There is only mitotic cell division. Asexual reproduction is hence somatogenie repro- duction. (v) Daughter organisms are genetically identical to parent. (vi) Multip rapidly. Occurrence jon occurs Asexual reproduction occurs in unicellular organisms, (Monerans and Protists), many plants and simple animals. It is absent in vertebrates and higher invertebrates. ‘Types of Asexual Reproduction — Asexual reproduction takes place in the following ways. I. Fission (L. fissus — cleft) ‘This is the division of the parent body into two or more daughter individuals identical to the parent. Fission can occur by binary fission, multiple fission and plasmotomy. 1. Binary Fission, In this process of asexual reproduction, the parent organism divides into two halves, each half forming an independent daughter organism, Binary fission involves mitosis. The resultant offspring (pl. offspring) are genetically identical to the parent and to each other. Depending upon the plane of division, binary fission is of the following types. (Simple Binary Fission (Irregular Binary Fission). It can occur through any plane, eg., Amoeba. (i) Longitudinal Binary Fis: n. The plane of division passes along the longitudinal A axis of the organism, It occurs in flagellates such as Euglena. The flagellum divides first followed by body.

The plane of division runs along the tranverse axis, of the individual, e.g., Paramecium, Planaria, diatoms and bacteria, In Paramecium the meganucleus divides by amitosis, while micronucleus divides by mitosis.

Reproductive Unit and Immortality In binary fission, the parent body asa whole forms the reproductive unit and dis- appears after its division into daughter in- dividuals. Therefore, the parent can not be! said to have died. In fact, the parent con- tinues living as two daughter individuals. ‘Thus the organisms that undergo binary fission are said to be immortal. 2. Multiple Fission. In this process the parent body divides into many similar daughter individuals.

Under unfavourable conditions, Amoeba, withdraws its pseudopodia and secretes a three layered thick covering— the eyst wall around itself. This phenomenon is called eneystation. On return of favourable conditions the eneysted Amoeha divides by multiple fission and produces many minute amoebae called pseudopodiospores The cyst wall ruptures to release the pseudopodiospores in the surrounding medium. They grow up into mature amoebae. Sometimes instead of forming a single cyst Amoeba produces a number of spores or ensheathed amoebae, The phenomenon is called sporulation.

The process of multiple fission in oocyst is termed sporogony and the daughter individuals are known as sporozoites. Multiple fission is also found in Monocystis — also a protozoan. 3. Plasmotomy. It is the division of a multinucleate parent into many multinucleate daughter individuals without division of nuclei. Nuclear division occurs later on to maintain normal number of nuclei. Plasmotomy occurs in Opalina and Pelomyxa (Giant Amoeba). Both Opalina and Pelomyxa are protozoans. T-forms two daughter individuals, .

Budding | In budding, a daughter individual is formed from a small part or bud, arising from parent body. () Budding in Yeast. In yeast, an outgrowth develops on one side of the cell. Nucleus divides mitoti- cally and one nucleus shifts into the outgrowth now called bud. There is unequal division during budding. The young bud is small. It grows in size, gets separated and matures into new yeast organism. Sometimes, yeast may bear many buds which may further bear daughter buds. This budding stage in yeast resembles with a genus Torula. Therefore, this condition is called torula stage and the process is known as torulation. DEVELOPING nucteus BUD VACUOLE SUB SIHAIUM.

The bud may split away from the parent and take up an independent existence ARCHAEOCYTES as in Hydra or it may remain attached and become a more or less independent member of the colony as in Sycon, Exogenous budding also occurs in certain an- nelids (Syilis) and urochordates or tunicates (Salpa).. (>) Endogenous/Internal Budding (Gemmule Formation; Fig. 1,13). In the fresh water sponges (e.g.. Spongilla) and a few marine sponges buds are formed within the parent’s body. They are called gem- mules (= internal buds). Gemmules consist of small groups of cells (archaeocytes) enclosed by a protec Fig. 1.18. Gemmule tive coat, During favourable conditions the mass of archaeocytes comes out through mieropyle and forms a new colony. (c) Strobilation, The repeated formation of similar segments by a process of budding is called strobilation. The segmented body is called a strobila (= Seyphistoma) larva and each of the segments is called an ephyra larva as found in Aurelia (a coelenterate). The ephyrae break at intervals and swim in the water. The free ephyrae feed, grow and in due course of time change into jelly fishes. About a dozen ephyrae are formed in a single strobilation.

Regeneration is of two types, mor- phallaxis and epimorphosis. In morphallaxis the whole body grows from a small fragment, Icis a type of asexual reproduction as found in Sponges, Hydra, Planaria, ete. Regeneration was first discovered in Hydra by Abraham Trembley in 1740.
