Reproduction

EasyBio > Heredity > Reproduction

Explain the mechanisms of reproduction that ensure the continuity of a species, by analysing sexual and asexual methods of reproduction in a variety of organisms, including but not limited to:

• animals: advantages of external and internal fertilisation
• plants: asexual and sexual reproduction
• fungi: budding, spores
• bacteria: binary fission (ACSBL075)
• protists: binary fission, budding

Analyse the features of fertilisation, implantation and hormonal control of pregnancy and birth in mammals (ACSBL075)

Evaluate the impact of scientific knowledge on the manipulation of plant and animal reproduction in agriculture (ACSBL074)
