1. Sexual reproduction happens when a male gamete and a female gamete join. This fusion of gametes is called fertilisation. Sexual reproduction allows some of the genetic information from each parent to mix, producing offspring that resemble their parents, but are not identical to them. In this way, sexual reproduction leads to variety in the offspring. Animals and plants can reproduce using sexual reproduction.Why do we resemble both parents?What is a sex cell called?Go back 4 spacesWhat does sexual reproduction allow?What is the fusion to 2 gametes called?Go forward 2Miss a goWhat do we call a developing egg cell?What is it called when 2 cells connect?What is a fertilised egg cell called?Roll againHow many chromosomes come from each parent?Go forward 1How are plants cloned?Roll againGo back 2 spacesWhat is asexual reproduction?What does sexual reproduction produce?Where in the cell do we find genes? Where does your genetic information come from?The genetic information passed from parent to offspring is contained in genes carried by chromosomes in the nucleus.Sexual reproduction produces offspring that resemble their parents, but are not identical to them. Asexual reproduction produces offspring - clones - that are genetically identical to their parents.Plants can be cloned artificially using cuttings or tissue culture. Animals can be cloned using embryo transplants or fusion cell cloning.Sexual reproduction is he production of new living organisms by combining genetic information from two individuals of different types (sexes). In most higher organisms, one sex (male) produces a small motile gamete which travels to fuse with a larger stationary gamete produced by the other (female).
