Q

What are the Six types of Asexual Reproduction

A

Fragmentation
Parthenogenesis
Regeneration
Binary Fission
Budding
Multi Fission

21
Q

Types of Asexual Reproduction:

Organism duplicates its DNA then it divides into two new ones

ex: Amoeba and Cyanobacteria

A

Binary Fission

22
Q

Types of Asexual Reproduction:

Organism duplicates its DNA then divides it into more than two organisms

ex: Sporozoans and Algae

A

Multi Fission

23
Q

Types of Asexual Reproduction:

Organism produces offspring as an outgrowth on its surface, then cuts it off to live independently

ex: Hydra

A

Budding

24
Q

Types of Asexual Reproduction:

Organism that splits itself into pieces, then the pieces regenerates to become full new offspring

ex: Planaria

A

Fragmentation

25
Q

Types of Asexual Reproduction:

Organism that is able to fertilize its own egg cell through ovum modifications

ex: Nematodes and Water Fleas

A

Parthenogenesis

26
Q

Types of Asexual Reproduction:

It is similar to Budding and Fragmentation, body part is cut off and regenerates to form a new offspring

ex: Geckos and Planaria

A

Regeneration

27
Q

What are the two types of Sexual Reproduction

A

Syngamy
Conjugation

28
Q

Types of Sexual Reproduction:

The fusion of two cells or their genetic material for procreation

ex: Humans and most Animals

A

Syngamy

29
Q

Types of Asexual Reproduction:

Process of which bacterium transfers genetic material to another through direct contact

ex: Hypotrichs

A

Conjugation

30
Q

It is the use of advanced reproductive technologies, such as artificial insemination

A

Artificial Reproduction

31
Q

Artificial Reproduction:

It involves the introduction of sperm into a woman’s reproductive tract through noncoital means

A

Artificial Insemination

32
Q

Artificial Reproduction:

It is a complex process of retrieving and manually combining an egg and sperm cell in a laboratory for fertilization

A

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

33
Q

Artificial Reproduction:

It is a form of IVF, a Micropipette is used to inject a single sperm cell into an egg cell

A

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)

34
Q

Artificial Reproduction:

It is a process of helping to become pregnant, it uses frozen embryos (fertilized eggs)

A

Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)

35
Q

Artificial Reproduction:

It boosts pregnancy chances by placing specially prepared sperm directly in the uterus

A

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

36
Q

It is the joining of an egg and a sperm inside a woman’s reproductive system

A

Fertilization

37
Q

What are the two types of Fertilization

A

Internal Fertilization
External Fertilization

38
Q

Three types of Internal Fertilization

A

Oviparity
Ovoviviparity
Viviparity

39
Q

Three types of Internal Fertilization:

Eggs are laid outside the body

ex: Birds and Frogs

A

Oviparity

40
Q

Three types of Internal Fertilization:

Eggs are held inside the body

ex: Sharks and Rays

A

Ovoviviparity

41
Q

Three types of Internal Fertilization:

Fertilization is developed within the body followed by live birth

ex: Humans and Cows

A

Viviparity

42
Q

It usually requires a water body for successful fertilization, sperm and eggs are released outside the fertilize outside

ex: Salmon, Trout fish and Codfish

A

External Fertilization

43
Q

What do you call an organism that has two reproductive organ

A

Hermaphrodite

44
Q

What are the two types of Hermaphrodite

A

Sequential Hermaphrodite
Simultaneous Hermaphroditism

45
Q

Type of Hermaphrodite:

It is an organism that is born as one sex and may change sex later in life

A

Sequential Hermaphrodite

46
Q

Type of Hermaphrodite:

It is an organism that has two (male & female) Reproductive organ present through its life

A

Simultaneous Hermaphroditism

47
Q

Two types of Sequential Hermaphrodite

A

Protogyny
Protandry

48
Q

Two types of Sequential Hermaphrodite:

Female to Male

A

Protogyny

49
Q

Two types of Sequential Hermaphrodite:

Male to Female

A

Protandry
