A concise lesson presentation (26 slides) that looks at how sexual reproduction leads to variation and considers the advantages and disadvantages of this form of reproduction. The lesson begins by getting the students to recognise that sexual reproduction needs two parents and therefore two gametes. Time is taken to ensure that students understand that these gametes are produced by meiosis and therefore contain the haploid number of chromosomes. Key terminology like haploid and zygote are used throughout the lesson.
This lesson is suitable for both KS3 and GCSE students
