Chapter 45 - Animal Reproductive System Flashcards
spermatogenesis
occur in seminiferous tubles (sertoli cell)
produce equal 4 gamates (sperm)
continous process
equal cytokinesis
-> primary spermatocyes (2n) →[meiosis 1]→ secondary spermatocyes (n) →[meiosis 2]→ 4 sperms
oogenesis
- discontinous process (2 stops = after birth & after ovulation)
- unequal cytokinesis (make 1egg and 3polar cells)
mitosis -> primary oocyte (2n) -> [meiosis 1] -> secondary oocyte (n) -> [meiosis 2] -> 1 egg and 3 polar cells.
male reproductive organ
- stcrotum
- testis
: sperm produce in ‘seminiferous tububle’.
- epididymus : store sperm.
- vas deferon : ejaculation duct.
- urethra : tube for ejaculation.
- 3 accesory glands
: Seminal vesicle, 60% of semen is produced.
Prostate gland, add Zn2+.
Bulbourethral gland, produce corperis fluid.
female reproductive organ
- oviduct (fallopian tube) : where fertilization take place.
- ovary : filled with follicles for oogenesis.
- uterus : where implantation take place.
- endometrium : innermost lining layer of uterus
- cervix : neck of uterus.
- vagina
- clitoris
menstruation cycle (ovarian & uterian cycles)
- ovarian cycle
(1) follicular phase (1~13): FSH lvlvrise, maturation of follicle.
(2) ovulation (14) : LH surge, egg (oocyte) is release.
(3) luteal phase (15~28): progasterone lvl rise, ready for implatation. - uterian cycle
(1) menstrual flow (1~5) : offing old endometrium.
(2) proliferative phase (6~14) : esterogen lvl rise, making new endometrium.
(3) secretory phase (15~28) : progesterone lvl rise, ready for implatation.
differences of sexual reproduction & asexual reproduction
asexual reproduction :
- doesn’t require different sex for reproduction.
- use mitosis
- low genetic diversity
sexual reproduction :
- requires different sex for reproduction.
- use meiosis
- high genetic diversity (cross over during prophase 1, independent assortment during metaphase 1)
parthenogenesis
hermaphroditism
