Standard 3: Reproduction
Major Objectives IS Suggested Activities Suggested Assessments
Concept A: Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction
Distinguish between asexual (i.e., binary fission in bacteria,
budding in yeast, and cloning in cuttings and identical twins)
and sexual reproduction. (3.3.A.a)
Concept B: Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction
Describe the advantages and disadvantages of asexual and
sexual reproduction with regard to variation within a
population. (3.3.D.a)
Binary Fission, Budding, Cloning Video
Clips
(1.6, 1.8, SC3)
Given examples of various species, describe
the advantageous adaptations sexual
reproduction has given them; compare how
the results would be different with asexual
reproduction
Students will be given a table of
various organisms and identify if the
organisms reproduce sexually or
asexually.
Students will design a T-chart
comparing the advantages and
disadvantages of asexual and sexual
reproduction.
Concept A: Cell Division
Name the three functions of mitosis (growth, repair,
maintenance). (3.3.C.a.)
Concept B: Cell Division
Outline the parts of the cell cycle with elaboration on the
process of mitosis (phases—interphase, prophase, metaphase,
anaphase, telophase; chromatid, centromere, spindle, cell plate)
(3.3.C.a)
Concept C: Cell Division
Identify that the resulting cells are genetically identical to the
starting cell. (3.3.C.a)
Concept D: Cell Division
Explain why meiosis is necessary for sexual reproduction and
how fertilization restores the diploid number. (3.3.C.c)
(1.5, 1.6, 1.8, SC3)
Students will create a mitosis foldable that
describes the three functions of mitosis and
diagrams and labels the cell cycle.
(1.5, 1.6, 1.8, SC3)
Students will create a mitosis foldable that
describes the three functions of mitosis and
diagrams and labels the cell cycle.
OR
Pro-Wrestling with Ana-students relate the
stages of mitosis to a skit
(1.5, 1.6, 1.8, SC3)
Students will create a mitosis foldable that
describes the three functions of mitosis and
diagrams and labels the cell cycle.
(1.5, 1.6, 1.8, SC3)
Students will determine the diploid and
haploid number of different species to
explain how fertilization restores the diploid
number.
(1.5, 1.6, 1.8, 2.1, SC3)
Students will diagram the stages of
mitosis and identify two events for
each stage.
Students will create a mnemonic
device showing the order of the
phases and describe a key factor of
each.
Students will compare the processes
of meiosis and mitosis in a chart.
Students will design fictitious
organisms by combining maternal and
paternal chromosomes to determine
the characteristics of the offspring.
