Animal Reproduction: Sexual & Asexual

This document summarizes different types of animal reproduction, including asexual reproduction methods like budding and regeneration, as well as sexual reproduction involving internal and external fertilization. It discusses mating, parental care, and development of offspring both inside and outside the mother's body. Hermaphroditism is also mentioned. Examples are provided for many of the concepts.

Asexual Reproduction
• Budding – small part
of parent’s body
grows into new
organism

Genetically
identical
clones
[Link]
Asexual Reproduction
• Regeneration –
parent separates into
two or more pieces &
each piece forms
new organism
– In some instances
just a new part grows
– Sponges, sea stars,
jellyfish, planaria
– Also be clones

[Link]
Asexual Reproduction
• Parthenogenesis
– growth &
development of
embryo without
fertilization by
male
• Population all
female
[Link]

Many insects; lizards, salamanders, fish, turkeys


Sexual Reproduction – gametes from
opposite sexes unite
[Link]

• Species with sexual


reproduction are said to
be dioecous – separate
sexes
• Often exhibit distinct
sexual dimorphism –
males and females look
different
• Sperm (male gamete)
formed by meiosis in
testes
• Eggs (female gamete)
formed by meiosis in the
ovary
Mating
• Mating – male &
female join together
to ensure fertilization;
not essential to
sexual reproduction

External Fertilization
• Males & females release
sperm & eggs into the
environment – sperm &
egg join outside the body
– Males & females may
come into close proximity
– Eggs & larvae develop
outside the body
– Many gametes produced;
many zygotes formed [Link]

– Usually aquatic
External Fertilization – e.g. Salmon

Internal fertilization
• Joining of sperm & egg inside the body after
mating
– Ensures selection of mate (not random);
promotes diversity
– Parents protect and care for young
– Does not require water; can occur on land
– Less sex cells produced; increases probability of
successful reproduction
– Common in birds, reptiles & mammals
Internal fertilization;
external development
• After fertilization, larvae
(embryo) are released
& development occurs
outside female body
• Example: Barnacles

Internal fertilization & development

• Females put large


amounts of energy
into development of
embryo – very few in
litter or clutch – [Link]

different schemes
• Eggs in “shell” are
laid and either
abandoned or [Link]

nurtured in nest

[Link]
Various levels of parental care

Internal fertilization & internal development
of eggs; followed by live birth

Internal fertilization, internal development of
embryo to fetus, live birth

[Link]

In seahorses, eggs are deposited in the male


where they are fertilized and develop. Babies
born live.
[Link]
In most species, it is the female who carries the
developing fetus to birth…

Hermaphrodites
• Organisms that change sex in order to
reproduce
