  • a biological process by which an offspring is being produced by its parent or parents
    reproduction
  • what are the two purposes of reproduction
    procreation and quality improvement
  • two types of reproduction
    sexual and asexual
  • type of reproduction that involves two parents that contributes a specialized gamete
    sexual
  • type of reproduction where organism combines the genetic information from each of its parents and is genetically unique
    sexual
  • what is the other term for fertilized egg

    zygote
  • is the fusion of sperm and egg
    fertilization
  • two types of fertilization
    internal and external
  • (types of fertilization) fusion of male and female gametes that takes place inside the body
    internal
  • (types of fertilization) female partner lays fertilized eggs or a fully grown young one
    internal
  • (types of fertilization) offspring have a high chance of survival
    internal
  • examples of internal fertilization
    cow, dog, human
  • (types of fertilization) fusion of male and female gametes that takes place outside the body
    external
  • (types of fertilization) the female partner lays unfertilized egg
    external
  • (types of fertilization) the offspring have low chances of survival
    external
  • example of external fertilization
    fish and frog
  • type of reproduction where one parent copies itself to form a genetically identical offspring
    asexual
  • type of reproduction that does not involve gametes, instead parts of a mature organism may develop into new individuals
    asexual
  • what are the mechanisms of asexual reproduction
    fission, budding, fragmentation, regeneration, vegetative propagation, spore formation
  • (mechanisms) division of the body into two or more new bodies
    fission
  • (fission) parent cell divides into two equal halves called daughter cells

    binary fission
  • what kind of fission. amoeba, paramecium, bacteria, euglena
    binary
  • what kind of fission. sporozoans and algae
    multiple
  • (fission) organisms divides itself into numerous daughter cells
    multiple fission
  • (mechanism) a new individual arises as an outgrowth from its parent develops organs like those of the parent and detached itself
    budding
  • examples of budding
    hydra, yeast, and corals
  • (mechanisms) breaks into two or more parts, with each fragment becoming a complete individual
    fragmentation
  • examples of fragmentation
    fungi, lichens, molds, worms, sea stars, acoel flatworm, and sponges
  • (mechanism) when a lizard loses its tail, it grows a new one 

    regeneration
  • (mechanisms) can regrow lost or damaged body parts, ultimately leading to the formation of a complete individual
    regeneration
  • (mechanisms) plants reproduce asexually through their vegetative parts such as leaves, roots, stem, and bud
    vegetative propagation
  • __ is much faster than sexual reproduction in plants
    vegetative propagation
  • (mechanisms) also knows as sporulation
    spore formatio
  • what do you call the specialized reproductive cells that are produced by an organism
    spores
  • examples of spore formation

    moss, ferns, aspergillus
  • what are the three ways of internal fertilization

    oviparity, ovoviviparity, viviparity
  • (ways) the fertilized egg forms a shell with the yolk and the developing offspring inside
    oviparity
  • (ways) lay fertilized egg
    oviparity
  • (ways) eggs develop and hatch into young individuals outside the parent's body
    oviparity
  • bird
    oviparous
