Module 5 | Heredity
Content 1: Reproduction
Lesson 1 | Mechanisms of reproduction in animals
-
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
Lesson 2 | Mechanisms of reproduction in plants
-
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:
– plants: asexual and sexual reproduction
Lesson 3 | Mechanisms of reproduction in fungi, bacteria and protists
-
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:
– fungi: budding, spores
– bacteria: binary fission (ACSBL075)
– protists: binary fission, budding
Lesson 4 | Fertilisation, implantation and hormonal control of pregnancy and birth in mammals
-
analyse the features of fertilisation, implantation and hormonal control of pregnancy and birth in mammals (ACSBL075)
Lesson 5 | Scientific manipulation of plant and animal reproduction
-
evaluate the impact of scientific knowledge on the manipulation of plant and animal reproduction in agriculture (ACSBL074)
