CH 50 Animal Reproduction Flashcards
_________ reproduction is based on mitosis and results in genetically identical offspring.
Asexual
________ reproduction is based on meiosis and fusion of gametes and, because of genetic recombination, unusually result in genetically different offspring.
Sexual
Asexual Reproduction Types:
1) ______-an offspring begins to form within or on a parent and then breaks free and begins to grow on its own.
2) _________-an individual splits into two or more decedents.
3) ____________-Females produce offspring without fertilization by male via chromosome doubling without genetic recombination.
Budding
Fission
Parthenogenesis
Sperm are ______ cells produced by meiosis in males, and ovum are____ cells produced by meiosis.
_______ is he fusion of sperm and egg
Haploid
Haploid
Fertilization
______ ______ addresses how a trait is produced. The genetic, developmental, hormonal, or neural mechanisms responsible for phenotype.
Proximate Causation
________ ______ addresses why a trait occurs in terms of its effect on fitness.
Ultimate Causation
High _________ density and the onset of _______ is a major factor that causes the switch from asexual to sexual reproduction.
Population
Winter
Genetically variable offspring have higher _____ in environments with rapidly evolving parasites, deteriorating physical conditions, or other types of rapid environmental change.
fitness
There is a switch from asexual to sexual reproduction when conditions ______
Worsen
The mitotic cell divisions, meiotic cell divisions, and developmental events that produce gametes are called _______
Gametogenesis
Spermatogenesis:
___________ (2n)—–Mitosis—->________ ______(2n)—–Meiosis1—-> ______ ________(n)—-Meiosis2—>_______(n)—–>_______ ____(n)
Spermatogonium Primary Spermatocytes Secondary Spermatocytes Spermatids Mature Sperm
Parts of Sperm:
1)_______-contains nucleus and enzyme filled structure called _____ that allow sperm to penetrate egg.
2)______-encloses centriole that will combine with egg centriole to form centrosome.
3)____-packed with mitochondria to power movement

Oogenesis:
_______(2n)—Mitosis/Differentiation–>_______ _____(2n)—-Meiosis1—>______ ______ (n) and _____ _____(n)—-Meiosis2—–> _____(n) and ______ ____(n)—–>______
Oogonium Primary Oocyte Secondary Oocyte and Polar Body Ootid and Polar Bodies Ovum
___ are large mainly because they contain the nutrients required for the embryo’s early development.
Eggs
Just outside the plasma membrane of eggs, a fibrous, mat-like sheet of glycoproteins called the ______ ____ forms and surrounds the egg.
Vitelline Envelope
In the eggs of humans and other mammals, the vitelline envelope structure is unusually thick and is called the ____ ______. This structure is surrounded b a layer of cells, called the _____ _____, that sperm mus penetrate before it can fertilize the oocyte.
Zona pellucida
Corona Radiata
Fertilization is the joining of haploid cells to form a diploid _____
Zygote
In many species, individuals release their gametes into their environment synchronously, and ______ _____ occurs.
In other animals, sperm is deposited into the reproductive tracts of females, and ____ _____ occurs.
External Reproduction
Internal Reproduction
Most animals that rely on external fertilization live in ______ environments.
Aquatic
Species with external fertilization tend to produce ____ numbers of gametes.
Large
External Fertilization Coordination:
Gametogenesis occurs in response to _______ __.
Gametes are released in response to specific ____ from individuals of the same species.
