Asexual Reproduction
Did you know?
Although most animals do not practice asexual reproduction, a few do. Flatworms,
a parasite in humans and other animals, can reproduce sexually or asexually.
In this activity, you will design an investigation of any type of asexual reproduction.
1. Write a Question Think about what interests you in the different ways organisms can
reproduce asexually. Write a question that will be the basis of your investigation.
2. Form a Hypothesis Based on what you know about asexual reproduction, what do you
think the answer to your investigation question will be? Write your hypothesis.
