Organismal Biology Flashcards
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction
Sexual and Asexual Reproduction
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction:
1. Mode of reproduction that includes gametes.
Sexual Reproduction
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction:
1. Mode of reproduction that only involves one organism and does not use gametes.
Asexual Reproduction
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction:
1. Producing an individual through the buds that develop on the parent body.
Budding
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction:
1. Organism is capable of regrowing certain body parts.
Regeneration
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction:
1. Parent organism divides into fragments and each fragment develops into a new organism.
Fragmentation
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction:
1. A parent cell divided into two identical cells, each having the potential to grow to the size of the original cell.
Binary Fission
Organismal Biology:
Mode of Reproduction
Asexual Reproduction:
1. The development of an offspring by a female without a male to mate with.
Parthenogenesis
Organismal Biology:
Modes of Embryo Development
- Viviparous
- Oviparous
- Oviviparous
Organismal Biology:
Modes of Embryo Development:
1. Animals that give birth to offspring.
2. The development of embryo takes place inside the female reproductive system
Viviparous
Organismal Biology:
Modes of Embryo Development:
1. Animals that lay eggs
2. Fertilization takes place internally but embryo development takes place externally.
Oviparous
Organismal Biology:
Modes of Embryo Development:
1. Animals that lay eggs and develop eggs inside the mother’s body.
2. Possess embryos that develop inside eggs that remain in the mother’s body until they are ready to hatch.
Oviviparous
Organismal Biology:
Modes of Nutrition
Autotrophs and Heterotrophs
Organismal Biology:
Modes of Nutrition:
1. Organisms that are able to make their own food.
Autotrophs
Organismal Biology:
Modes of Nutrition
1. Organisms that gain energy from consuming other organisms.
Heterotrophs
