Activity 3: Asexual reproduction in organisms (plant and animal kingdoms) 

Group activity: Working in groups of 4, prepare a 3-minute presentation on asexual reproduction in organisms. 

Group 1 (Marcus, Ryan)
Binary fission, spore formation
Group 2
(Daniel, Christopher)
Vegetative propagation
Group 3
(Lois, Diyva)
Vegetative propagation 
Group 4
(Achutha, Priya)
Budding, gemmules
Group 5
(Athiyah, Afif)
Fragmentation, regeneration
Group 6
(Choon Wee, Qadirah)

 (Netraa, Luke)
Parthenogenesis

Use the following questions as guidelines for your presentation.
1.          What is this type of asexual reproduction? Give a brief description.
2.          What are some examples for this type of asexual reproduction?

Research and preparation:
Presentation: 3 minutes x 6 groups = 20 minutes

Product: Combined presentation

      Under what circumstances will asexual reproduction via spores is chosen over sexual reproduction via spores and vice versa?

      Is sporogenesis only restricted to the asexual part of the spore formation or does it include the sexual reproduction part as well (as seen in the diagram)?
