Types of reproduction |
1 sexual reproduction 2 asexual reproduction |
|
Involves union of gametes? |
Sexual reproduction |
|
kinds of gametes or sex cells? |
Male - sperm cell Female - egg cell or ovum |
|
kinds of fertilization of zygotes |
1- External (copulation/ sexual intercourse) 2- Internal ( spawning) |
|
Does not involve union of gametes Individual can reproduce offsprings without involvement of other individuals |
Asexual reproduction |
|
New organism develop from an outgrowth |
Budding |
|
Replication of genetic material and subsequent division/ splitting of the cell into 2 genetically identical daughter cells |
Binary fission |
|
New organism grows from a fragment of the parent body breaks into pieces Each pieces develops into a complete organism |
Fragmentation and regeneration |
|
Body of the parent breaks into several pieces |
Autotomy |
|
Unicellular structure that are capable of germinating into an individual |
Spore formation |
|
Female produce egg cells that produce new individuals without fertilization |
Parthenogenesis |
|
New individuals are formed not from seeds or spores but from other plant parts |
Vegetative propagation |
|
2 kinds of vegetative propagation |
1 Natural Vegetative propagation 2 Artificial vegetative propagation |
|
Actively dividing and multiplying cells capable of differentiation |
Meristematic cells |
|
6 kinds of natural vegetative propagation |
1. Runners/ stolons 2. Suckers 3. Tubers 4. Rhizomes 5. Bulbs 6. Notches |
|
Slender branch with nodes and internodes that grow above the ground |
Runners or stolons |
|
Horizontal stem |
Runners or stolons |
|
New stem grows from the root base of the existing plant |
Suckers |
|
Strawberry |
Runners or stolons |
|
Banana |
Suckers |
|
Swollen parts of an underground stem with pits/ eyes where buds grow and develop into new plants |
Tubers |
|
Potato |
Tubers |
|
Long horizontal underground stem with nodes and internodes |
Rhizomes |
|
Ginger |
Rhizomes |
|
Short underground stem with fleshy leaves that store food |
Bulbs |
|
Onion |
Bulbs |
|
Structures found at the margins of some leaves where new tiny buds emerge then develops into new plants that detach from the notch and live in an independent existence |
Notches |
|
4 kinds of artificial vegetative propagation |
1. Cutting 2. Layering 3. Grafting 4. Tissue culture |
|
A part of a plant is cut off from the mother plants and placed in a new environment where it can grow into a new plant |
Cutting |
|
Hormone responsible |
auxin hormone |
|
Shoot/ more branches from a parent plant is bent close to the ground enough to be covered with moist soil |
Layering |
|
Two plants used to develop new traits from parent plants. One desirable characteristics is cut and placed above the also cut stem of second rooted plant with another desirable characteristics |
Grafting |
|
One plant with a desirable characteristics is cut and placed above the also cut stem of second rooted plant with another desirable characteristics |
scion |
|
One plant with a desirable characteristics is cut and placed above the also cut stem of second rooted plant with another desirable characteristics |
Stock |
|
Piece of plant containing meristematic tissue of a desirable plant is cut and sterilized Tissue is placed in a container with a suitable liquid nutrient medium & proper conditions |
Tissue culture |
