Q

mating

A

anatomical and behavioral adaptations to bring gametes into close proximity for fertilization

19
Q

ovum

A

eggs - have a jelly like outer layer

20
Q

sperm

A

have head and tail
contain mitochondria

21
Q

fertilization mechanism

A

jelly coat dissolves > sperm head binds to ovum > sperm nucleus enters the ovum > fertilization membrane forms > fusion of two haploid nucleus to form a diploid nucleus

22
Q

external fertilization

A

animals broadcast eggs and sperm
more vulnerable - release many
in watery environments
requires less energy

23
Q

internal fertilization

A

more protection

24
Q

oviparous

A

lay eggs, no support from parents

25
Q

viviparous

A

live young, nutrients from parents

26
Q

ovoviviparous

A

young develop in an egg inside parent - live birth but little maternal support

27
Q

cleavage

A

mitotic cell division into blastomeres - no increase in size or mass

28
Q

gastrulation

A

gastrula with primary tissue layers, forms primordial germ cells

29
Q

organogenesis

A

major tissue and organ system development

30
Q

metamorphosis

A

adult characteristic develop

31
Q

morula

A

has animal and vegetal pole

32
Q

animal pole

A

forms the embryo

33
Q

vegetal pole

A

forms yolk

34
Q

blastocoel

A

forms body cavity

35
Q

meroblastic

A

incomplete cleavage

36
Q

holoblastic

A

complete cleavage

37
Q

three germ layers

A

ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm

38
Q

archenteron

A

cells at vegetal pole pushed toward roof of blastocoel, creates folding inside embryo

39
Q

neurulation

A

forming of neural tube from neural plate

40
Q

neural plate formation

A

thickening of ectoderm over notochord

41
Q

formation of neural tube

A

infolding and pinching off of the neural plate

42
Q

somite formation

A

notochord becomes segmented into somites > forms repeated structures like ribs

43
Q

apoptosis

A

genetically programmed to die when no longer needed
