chapter 4 vocabulary Flashcards
Allele
One of the forms of a gene for a singular trait.
Asexual reproduction
Reproductive process in which a single parent produces genetically identical offspring.
Budding
A form of asexual reproduction in which a spine produces a bag that will drop from the parent sponge and grow into its own.
Chromosome
A structure of wound up DNA.
Embryo
An organism still in the womb, egg or seed, and not yet born hatched, or germinated.
Fertilization(in animals)
The fashion of an egg cell form a female, and a sperm cell from a male that forms a single fertilized egg cell called zygote.
Fertilization (in plants)
The fusion of a pollen grain with an XL within the ovule.
Gamete
And reproductive cell either angry sperm garments are formed through MEIOSIS with in the ovaries a females and the testes of males; meiosis takes place in plants and animals that reproduce do sexually through meeting of a male and a female of the same kind.
Gene
Are you such a DNA molecule that contains the genetic information forgiven inherited traits. Gene gives instructions to the cell to make proteins into control chemical reactions within the cell.

Phenotype
The traits of an organism that can be observed.
Pollination
The transfer of pollen from an anther to stigma order to fertilize a female cell and an evil to plant reproduce.
Sexual reproduction
Reproductive process in which organisms create off screen and carry a combination of genetic material from each parent.
sperm call
A male gamete.
Stamen
What part of the flower that produce pollen the flowers male reproductive cell.
Stigma
The sticky top of the pistil that receives pollen grains during pollination.
stoma
The tiny opening in the lower epidermis of the leaf that lets carbon dioxide into leaf and controls the rate of transportation (also known as Leaf pore)
Zygote
A single cell resulting from the fertilization of a female gamete by the male gamete, carrying DNA from each of its two parents.
