Lesson 3- SEXUAL Flashcards
Perpetuation of Life
___________ is the perpetuation of a new organism from ___ organisms with the use of __________.
In this process, male gametes (______) fuses with a female gamete (______) to form a _______ called ________ containing two sets of ____________. During sexual reproduciton the genetic material contained their chromosomes combine to produce _______________________ that is _______ from both parents
~Sexual Reproduction
~two
~gametes
~sperm cell
~egg cell
~diploid cell
~zygote
~chromosomes
~genetically diverse offspring
~different
Reproductive cells
Gametes (sperm cell and egg cell)
Chromosomes are made of ________ and _______
DNA and protein
Sexual reproduction creates _____
diversity
Independent Assortment Crossing Over
2 set of parents can make 2 new parents
__________ can exist in population due to _____________
Genetic variety
sexual reproduction
_________ occurs when the gametes which join together during fertilization come from ____________
Allogamy
two different individuals
ALLOGAMY
each sex cell contains only _______ chromosomes (these are called________) rather than the normal 46 chromosomes present in other cells of the body.
23
haploid cells
Allogamy
The two haploid cells fuse together to create a __________
diploid cell
example of Allogamy
fertilization in humans
_____, also known as self-fertilization or self-pollination, is the fusion of male and female gametes, which are produced by a ___________.
Autogamy
single individual
AUTOGAMY
Species which are able to produce both male and female gametes are called__________-.
hermaphrodites
- Pollen comes loose from
____________. - A ________ of the same flower collects pollen.
stamens
pistil
[note] Self pollination
- Autogamy
- No agent required
- Male & female parts mature at the same time
- Can occur even if the flower is closed
- Offspring can become weak
- New variety not possible
- Preserves parental characters
[note] Cross pollination
- Allogamy
- Agent is required
- Male & female parts mature at different times
- Can occur only when flower is open
- Offspring healthier
- New variety possiblr
- Does not preserve parental characters
