create a worksheet to review sexual reproduction for 7 graders in life science class

This learning resource focuses on the concept of sexual reproduction in both animals and plants. It includes vocabulary matching activities that define key terms such as gamete, fertilization, zygote, and embryo. The resource encourages engagement with the material through fill-in-the-blank activities and reflection questions that ask students to explain the fertilization process, the advantages of sexual reproduction, and the contribution of sexual reproduction to genetic diversity. Additionally, it provides insights into reproductive structures, comparing sexual reproduction in flowering plants and animals, and emphasizes the importance of pollination. Through various exercises, students explore real-world connections and apply their understanding by constructing arguments related to reproductive strategies.
