Lesson
1 Perpetuation of Life
There are varieties of organism in animal kingdom that means they possess
different modes of reproduction depending on the complexity of their morphology
and physiology. Simple organisms reproduce through asexual reproduction –
offspring come from a single parent and has the exact copy of the genes hence
referred as “clone”. Sexual reproduction in animals is the production of new living
organism by combining two gametes from different organism, one male producing
motile gamete that must fused with the egg cell from female organism. Through
this process similarity is preserve with respect to the transfer of genes from the
parts to offspring and individuality that explains the individual characteristics
possessed by an organism different from their parents nor siblings.

What Is It
Asexual Reproduction
Asexual reproduction is defined as the formation of new individuals from the cells
of a single parent. This is very common in plants and is less common in animals.
Asexual reproduction does not involve the union of gametes (sperm cell and egg
cell) and it does not change the number of chromosomes present. The resulting
offspring is similar or identical to the parent and without the need for a mate, they
are able to reproduce. There are different types of asexual reproduction in animals.

Sexual Reproduction
Sexual reproduction is the perpetuation of a new organism from two organisms
with the use of gametes. In this process, male gametes which is the sperm cell
fuses with a female gamete known as the egg cell to form a diploid cell called zygote
containing two sets of chromosomes. During sexual reproduction, the genetic
material contained in their chromosomes combine to produce genetically diverse
offspring that are different from both parents. Most mammals and amphibians
reproduce through the method of sexual reproduction.
