Grade 7 Science Study Sheet

Quarter 2 – Module 6
Alone or Together, Let’s Multiply for the Better

Module Objectives
- Define asexual and sexual reproduction.

- Describe the five types of asexual reproduction.

- Classify organisms by their mode of reproduction.

- Explain sexual reproduction in plants and animals.

- Identify the male and female parts of a gumamela flower.

- Compare asexual vs. sexual reproduction in terms of parent number and genetic similarity.

Key Terms & Definitions


Asexual reproduction: one parent produces genetically identical offspring by mitosis,
without gametes or fertilization.

Sexual reproduction: two parents whose gametes unite in fertilization, producing


genetically varied offspring.

Gamete: a sex cell (sperm or egg) formed by meiosis.

Types of Asexual Reproduction


Type Mechanism & Advantages Disadvantages
Examples

Vegetative New plants from Fast maturity, trait Whole crop risk
propagation non-seed structures maintenance
(tubers, rhizomes,
runners, bulbs,
plantlets)

Binary fission Cell splits into two Rapid increase No variation


identical daughter
cells (bacteria,
amoeba)

Budding Outgrowth forms on Simple, quick Clonal


parent then
detaches (yeast,
hydra)

Spore formation Spores released Many offspring Environment-


from spore case dependent
(molds,
mushrooms)

Regeneration Body fragments Recovers injury, Clonal


regrow (starfish, doubles count
planaria)

Sexual Reproduction in Plants


Stamen (male): Anther (produces pollen), Filament (supports anther)

Pistil (female): Stigma (captures pollen), Style (pollen tube), Ovary (contains ovules)

Pollination → Fertilization → Zygote → Seed → Fruit

Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction


Feature Asexual Sexual

Parents required One Two

Genetic outcome Identical clones Varied offspring

Rate Often rapid Slower

Adaptation Low High
