REPRODUCTION
 GRADE-7
 PREPARED BY: MIRA E. BAGAY
Identify what characteristics of living things it
is referring to:
 Where living tings grow, or increase in size.
 Living things are able to reproduce an offspring.
 Living things needs energy to perform specific tasks.
 Living things must expel waste.
 Living things detect changes and are able to response to it.
 Living things are able to move.
Identify if these is asexual
or sexual reproduction

REPRODUCTION
 GRADE-7
 PREPARED BY: MIRA E. BAGAY
At the end of discussion, you should be
able to;
a. Identify asexual reproduction;
b. Differentiate each forms of asexual
reproduction; and
c. State the importance of asexual
reproduction in conserving species
What is reproduction?
Reproduction is when organisms
produce or form new organisms.
This occur when organisms reproduce
to make new individuals of the same
species.
Two types of reproduction
Asexual and sexual reproduction.
Asexual Reproduction
 It is a type of reproduction where living
organisms produce offspring without the
involvement of a male and female parent.
 Offspring is genetically identical to the
parent.
How does offspring produce in
asexual reproduction?
 Binary Fission
 Budding
 Fragmentation
Types of asexual
reproduction
Binary Fission
It is a type of asexual reproduction
wherein an organism splits in half to form
two identical organisms.
It comes from the words bi-, which means
“two,”and fiss, which means “split.”
This is most common in bacteria.
Example are;
Bacteria like E.coli, Parmecium, Euglena and sea
anemone
What happen during binary fission?
Budding
Budding
In this kind of reproduction, an outgrowth or
a bud grows from the parent organisms and
develop.
This bud will then detach to form new
individual.
Budding comes from the word bud, which
means “sprout.”
Example are;
Plant and yeast
Fragmentation
Fragmentation occurs when a parent
organism breaks into fragments, or
pieces and each fragment develop into
new organism.
Example: Starfish
Reproduction is not limited to
organisms that we only see with
microscope, like bacteria and yeast.
But also organisms that we can see
with our eyes, like plants and animals.
Direction: Please choose the correct form of
asexual reproduction (Budding, Fragmentation,
or Cell Division) shown by the certain
organism.
1. Hydra a small, freshwater organism.
2. Amoebas, which are single-celled
eukaryotic organisms
3. A planarian is a type of flatworm
4. Mosses
5. Onions form bulbs and bulblets
