 ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION

PART 2

Fragmentation:- Some organisms have simple body organization like Spirogyra , they break down into smaller pieces each piece forms new identical individual, this mode of reproduction is known as Fragmentation.

Fragmentation in Spirogyra


Regeneration:- Many fully differentiated organisms have the ability to give to an individual organisms from their body parts. That is, if the individual somehow cut or broken up into many pieces, many of these pieces grow into separate individuals. For example, simple animals like Hydra and Planaria can be cut into any number of pieces and each piece grows into a complete organism. This is known as regeneration.



Budding:- Organisms such as Hydra use regenerative cells for reproduction in the process of budding. In Hydra, a bud develops as an outgrowth due to repeated cell division at one specific site, These buds develop into tiny individuals and when fully mature, detach from the parent body and become independent individuals.



Vegetative Reproduction:-  There are many plants in which parts like the root, stem and leaves develop into new plans under appropriate conditions.This property of vegetative propagation is used in methods such as layering or grafting to grow many plants like sugarcane, roses, or grapes for agricultural purposes. Advantage of vegetative propagation is that all plants produced are genetically similar enough to the parent plant to have all its characteristics.

Male reproductive system

Reproduction In Human Beings Reproduction:- It is the biological process in which organisms give offspring for the continuity of race. A complete system is concerned to perform this function called reproductive system. Here we are going to discuss sexual reproduction in Human Beings. As we human beings are diocious i.e male and female sexes are separate Male reproductive system in Human Beings. Testis:- These are the primary sex organs of males, testis produce male sex cells (sperms) as well as male sex hormone testosterone. Testis lie out side the body between the lungs in a muscular pouch called Scrotum.Scrotum maintains the temperature of testis which is below 3℃ than body temperature. Testis are two in number. Alongside the testicles are the  epididymis   and the  vas deferens.  which make up the duct system of the male reproductive organs. The vas deferens is a muscular tube that passes upward alongside the testicles and transports the sperm-...

Structure and function of Neuron

Neurons (nerve cells) are the functional units of the nervous system.  A typical neuron is divided into three parts i.e Cell body or Soma,Some contains all the cell organelles like Nucleus, Mitochondria etc. Dendrites and Axon. Schwann cells of Axon are covered by Myelin Sheath. Dendrites are branched like structures on Soma. Axon terminal is also branched like structure. The signals are received from neuron by dendrites and are send to next neuron bye chemo-electrical impulses through axon. The junction between the two cells is known as Synapses.In neuron signal travels in the form of chemicals but at synapses in changes in to electrical impulses.
