FORMS OF LIFE
• Reproduction may be asexual or
sexual.
• ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION- does
not involve gametes or sex cells.
• SEXUAL REPRODUCTION- involves
sex cell. The sperm cell and egg cell
unite to form zygote
ALGAE
• Some algae reproduce only
asexually by cell division or fission.
• FISSION, it is a common form of
vegetative reproduction among
unicellular plants, is the process by
which one cell divides in two.
• FRAGMENTATION it is a common
vegetative reproduction among
multicellular algae. It is a process
whereby pieces of an organism may
break off and regenerates into whole
organisms. This process multiple the
number of colonies not the number
of cells
BREAD MOLD (AMAG)
• Reproduces asexually through the
SPORES encased inside a capsule-
like container called SPORANGIUM.
When condition becomes favorable,
the spores germinate into new
plants.
FERN
• The brown structure underneath
the leaflets are called SORI,
they keep the sores intact. If the
condition is favorable it will
germinate into new plants.
ALTERNATION
GENERATION
• is the switching back and
forth between the
production of diploid
(asexual) and haploid cells
(sexual)
• The diploid stage is called
SPOROPHYTE GENERATION,
the diploid plant produces a
spores. The sprorophytes
undergoes meiosis to produce a
haploid spores. Spores then
develop to produce a haploid
plant.
• In GAMETOPHYTE GENERATION, the
haploid plants produces gametes(egg cells
and sperm cell).the haploid plant develop
a sperm producing ( ANTHERIDIA) and
egg producing
• (ARCHEGONIA) branches. These multi
cellular haploid plants are called
GAMETOPHYTES.
FUNGI
• Mold can produce asexually
through spore and sexually by
CONJUGATION; it is a primitive
form of sexual reproduction by
which the contents of two cells
unite to form a zygote.
VIRUSES
• Cannot reproduce alone
they need their host body to
organize their own
substances and produce
another of their kind.
BACTERIA
• They multiple by TRANVERSE
BINARY FISSION and produce their
daughter cells that will grow and
mature.
• This daughter cell may reproduce
again in a period of only 20 minutes.
PROTOZOAN(paramecium, amoeba,
euglena)
• Natural
• Artificial
