Q

What are the main differences between sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction?

A

Sexual reproduction requires 2 individuals (gametes) and each individual only passes on half of its genome; asexual reproduction requires one individual and each individual passes on its whole genome.

Q

Define Hermaphrodites

A

Organisms that have male and female gametes.

17
Q

What are the different types of hermaphrodites?

A

Simultaneous and Sequential.

18
Q

Define Simultaneous Hermaphrodites

A

They have testes and ovaries at the same time; sperm and egg production at the same time.

19
Q

Define Sequential Hermaphrodites

A

They start out as one sex and transition to another.

20
Q

What are all the differences between sexual and asexual reproduction?

A

Sexual reproduction slower, needs a partner, meiosis based, and encourages high genetic diversity and aids local adaptation; asexual reproduction is faster, needs no partner, mitosis based, and is highly effective in stable environments.

21
Q

Reproduction is _____; what does this mean?

A

Costly; it means that animals reproduce only when resources are plentiful.

22
Q

What are the different types of fertilization?

A

Internal and External

23
Q

What are some things to note about external fertilization?

A

Spawning is another name for it and it requires water.

24
Q

What are some things to note about internal fertilization?

A

Spermatophores are included and terrestrial adaptations occur.

25
Q

In some species, where is the sperm stored?

A

In the spermatheca.

26
Q

What are some benefits too storage of the sperm?

A

Control of the timing of fertilization and sperm selection (females select the sperm that it get fertilized by)

27
Q

What are all of the stages of development that occur ?

A

Fertilization, cleavage formation, blastulation, gastrulation, and organogenesis.

28
Q

What are the 2 categories of development and what is included under each one of them?

A

Fertilization and Morphogenesis; under fertilization, fertilization and cleavage formation occur and under morphogenesis, blastulation, gastrulation, and organogenesis occur.

29
Q

What does it mean that early development is highly conserved?

A

It means that at the beginning of development, not much goes on and some animals tend to look very similar to one another.

30
Q

Define Ontogeny

A

Embryonic development.

31
Q

What does parental care allow for?

A

Increased chances of survival of the offspring.

32
Q

What are some forms of parental care?

A

Guarding of the Eggs, Providing Food and Shelter, Long-Term bonds.
