Reproduction in Animals Flashcards
Reproduction can be in 2 ways
Sexual
Asexual
Types of Asexual Reproduction
Budding
Binary Fission
Parthenogenesis
Fragmentation
Definition of Budding:
The part of the animal’s body developing into a new individual
Binary Fission’s Definition:
One individual splits into two equal sized individuals
Fragmentation definition
Snapping one part of a body. The part snapped will grow into another individual
Parthenogenesis definition
Unfertilized egg cell develops into an individual without interference of sperm
Sexual reproduction requires
Gamete
Process of producing gamete
Gametogenesis
Types of gametogenesis
Spermatogenesis
Oogenesis
Spermatogenesis produces
Sperm
Oogenesis produces
Oocyte
Oogenesis produces
Oocyte
Advantage of sexual reproduction:
Done because it removes harmful genes for the next generation
Produce genetic variation in offspring
Germinal Epithelial cell is also known as
Primordial Germ Cell
Steps of Spermatogenesis
- Primordial germ cell divides into spermatogonia stem cell through Mitosis
- Spermatogonia stem cell performs mitosis to turn into spermatogonia
- Spermatogonia performs mitosis to form primary spermatocyte
- Primary spermatocyte performs Meiosis I to form secondary spermatocyte
- Secondary spermatocyte performs Meiosis II to produce 2 spermatids
- Spematid is processed into sperm(differentiation)
