Asexual Reproduction

Ever think of cloning yourself? For some organisms, like bacteria, it’s all in a day’s work! In this BrainPOP UK movie, Tim and Moby investigate how such creatures can reproduce asexually — i.e. by making copies of themselves just by splitting in half! Along the way, you’ll learn about eukaryotes and prokaryotes, and all aspects of asexual life. Which organisms reproduce asexually and why? How are asexual organisms different from those that reproduce sexually? Is asexual reproduction the same as mitosis? Is limb regeneration connected with asexual reproduction? You’ll get the answers to these pressing questions, and learn about budding - a special type of reproduction - in this educational, animated movie.
