Summary:
We jumped into a new topic today called asexual reproduction.  We defined it as “a type of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single parent organism and inherit the genes of that parent only.” This is very different from sexual reproduction, which will be tomorrow’s topic. Students spent the class researching various organisms that reproduce asexually, including strep bacteria, starfish, and even the Ebola virus. Check below for a copy of the worksheet.
