animals lecture 12 & 13 Flashcards
formation of new individuals whose genes come from one parent and never uses males gametes.
asexual reproduction
formation of new individuals by the fusion of haploid gametes
sexual reproduction
types of asexual reproduction
Fission, Fragmentation, Budding, Parthenogenesis
separation of parent into two or more individuals of approximately equal size.
fission
breaking of the body into pieces and regeneration of lost body parts to create new individuals.
fragmentation
examples of animals that do fragmentation
Turbellaria, Annelids, Echinoderms
: new individuals arise from outgrowths of existing ones
budding
examples of animals that do budding
sponges, hydrozoans, tunicates
: development of embryos without fertilization
parthenogenesis
examples of parthenogenesis
A few crustaceans, sharks, fish, salamanders, and few lizards and snakes
types of sexual reproduction
gonochoristic and hermaphroditic
males and females are
Different individuals
gonochoristic (diecious)
): an individual can produce both male and female gametes
hermaphrodistic (monoecious)
tradeoff of asexual reproduction and selfing
Potential for rapid population growth, Don’t need to find mate, Low Genetic variation.
tradoffs of sexual reproduction
Increases genetic variability, Lower population growth, Need to find a mate.
sex determined genetically at the time of fertilization.
Eg. birds, mammals, snakes and some lizards
genotypic sex determination
sex is determined by egg incubation temperature
Eg. turtles, many lizards, and crocodilians
temperature dependent sex determination
a creeping horizontal plant stem or runner that takes root at points along its length to form new plants.
stolon
involves the formation of haploid cells from an original diploid cell, called a primary oocyte, through meiosis. The female ovaries contain the primary oocytes. leads to the production of one final ovum, or egg cell, from each primary oocyte (in contrast to the four sperm that are generated from every spermatogonium). Of the four daughter cells that are produced when the primary oocyte divides meiotically, three come out much smaller than the fourth. These smaller cells, called polar bodies, eventually disintegrate, leaving only the larger ovum as the final product
oogenesis
male testes have tiny tubules containing diploid cells called spermatogonium that mature to become sperm. The basic function is to turn each one of the diploid spermatogonium into four haploid sperm cells. millions produced every day for each individual
spermatogenesis
breed (an animal or plant) with one not closely related.
outcrossing
in the male, it develops into parts of the male reproductive system, such as the epididymis and the vas deferens; in the female, it becomes vestigial.
