Chapter 1 Flashcards
fusion of a sperm and an egg
fertilization
assisted reproduction technology performed using a test tube or culture dish
in vitro fertilization
produce sperm
testes
immature egg
oocyte
male gametes
sperm
sex change where the individual is female first
protogyny
this is the development of embryos
ontogeny
self-fertilization is more common in animals that
a. are motile
b. limited motile or non-motile
b
period where human reproductive organs mature and begin to function
puberty
match:
a. lizards, snakes, vipers, sharks
b. most mammals, some cartilaginous fish
c. bony fish, all birds
1. viviparity
2. ovoviparity
3. oviparity
a - 2
b - 1
c - 3
states that basic features appear earlier in development than special features
von baer’s law
true or false: inbreeding produces more fit offsprings
false; inbreeding produces less fit offspring
who demonstrated the existence of germ layers in the embryo
karl ernst von baer
egg develops into an individual without fertilization
parthenogenesis
fertilized eggs laid outside the female’s body and develop there
oviparity
state the biogenetic law of muller and haeckel
“ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny”
earthworms, slugs, tapeworms, and snails possess this type of condition
hermaphrodism
chromosome for homozygous female and heterozygous male
XX, XY
prepares the uterus for pregnancy
progesterone
these are hollow ball of cells
blastulas
concerned with the development of physical abnormalities during fetal or early embryonic stage
teratology
this is the evolutionary relationships among organisms
phylogeny
combination of reproductive cells from two individuals
sexual reproduction
carries sperm to the ejaculatory duct
vas deferens
first to describe sperm
hamm and leeuwenhoek (1677)
introduced concept of ‘epigenesis’
kaspar freidrich wolff
this is where an oocyte is released
fallopian tube
male organ of intercourse and functions in urination
penis
odd one out:
sponges, annelids, corals, cnidarians
corals (undergo budding; while the rest undergo fragmentation)
a thick fluid rich in proteins and lipids deposited in the egg
yolk
fallopian tube is also called
oviduct
