Reproduction
Asexual
Sexual
Sexual reproduction
the production of
offspring by the fusion of
haploid gametes (eggs
& sperm) from two
parents to form a diploid
zygote (fertilized egg).
Dioecious
Gametes arise by
meiosis.
Genetic variability is
increased by the random
combinations of genes
from the parents.
Asexual Reproduction
Bacteria and
many protozoa
can reproduce by
binary fission
separating into
two or more
individuals
approximately the
same size.
Asexual Reproduction
Budding is a form of
asexual reproduction
where new
individuals form as
offshoots of a parent.
The offspring may
separate or remain
attached to form
colonies.
Asexual Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction
Fragmentation
occurs in some
sponges, cnidarians,
polychaete annelids,
tunicates.
Sexual Reproduction
Parthenogenesis
Parthenogenesis
Sequential Hermaphroditism
In sequential
hermaphroditism, an
individual reverses its
sex during its lifetime.
Sequential Hermaphroditism
There are also sequential
hermaphrodites that are male first, later
changing to female.
This occurs in species that produce more
eggs at a bigger size so it is
advantageous to have larger females.
Oysters
Fertilization
Fertilization fusion
of egg and sperm
into a single diploid
cell, the zygote.

External Fertilization
External
fertilization
fertilization takes
place outside the
females body.
A wet environment
is required so
gametes dont dry
out and so sperm
may swim to the
eggs.
Internal Fertilization

Gametogenesis
Spermatogenesis
Outermost layer of the seminiferous
tubules contain spermatogonia, diploid
cells that grow to become primary
spermatocytes.
After the first meiotic division, they are
called secondary spermatocytes.
When meiosis is complete the haploid
cells are spermatids.
Spermatogenesis
Spermatogenesis
Spermatids mature
into motile sperm
with a tail for
locomotion, and a
head containing an
acrosome as well as
the nucleus.

Triploidy
There are 3
pronuclei within this
one zygote. In the
laboratory, such
embryos are
discarded. In vivo,
such embryos almost
always abort
spontaneously.
