Lab LE 1 Flashcards
Meiosis
Reduction division
The resulting daughter cell gets HAPLOID chromosome number
Gonia
Group of cells within the animal (a general term)
Gametes
A mature haploid male or female reproductive cell
Contain HAPLOID chromosomes
Spermatozoa
Male gametes; also called SPERM
Arise FROM spermatogonia
Spermatogonia
Where spermatoZOA comes from
Ova (egg)
Female gametes
Arise from ooGONIA
Oogonia
Where ova comes from
Gametogenesis
First stage of animal development that involves meiosis of the gonia
Fertilization
Union of male and female gametes
Zygote
UNICELLULAR, produced by fertilization, DIPLOID
Mitosis
Cell divisions
Cleavage
Gives rise to multicellular embryo called blastula
Blastula
Multicellular embryo resulting from cleavage
Gastrulation
Blastula –> GASTRULA. Its cells go through various morphogenetic movements in which cells migrate to different parts of the gastrula as germ layers are formed
Gastrula
What the blastula changes into. Has germ layers
