There are 6 major events in fertilization. Discuss the process of fertilization or conception, with emphasis on the sperm-egg interaction. Egg-binding proteins on the sperm cell surface bind to molecules on the egg cell membrane. What happens to the chromosomes of the sperm and egg? The sperm cell membrane fuses with the egg plasma membrane, allowing the sperm nucleus and centriole to enter the egg cytoplasm. What is the purpose/role of the centriole during fertilization? The final event would be when the egg and sperm pronuclei migrate toward each other in preparation for syngamy. What is the purpose of reproduction?
There are 6 major events in fertilization. Discuss the process of fertilization or conception, with emphasis on the sperm-egg interaction. Proteins on the sperm plasma membrane bind to ZP3 molecules within the zona pellucida of the egg. Why is this event important? Zona binding triggers the acrosome reaction, in which the sperm plasma membrane fuses with the outer acrosomal membrane, causing exocytosis of acrosomal contents. What is in the "acrosomal content"? Acrosomal enzymes begin to dissolve a hole in the zona pellucida. This enzymatic degradation, accompanied by rapid sperm tail beating, moves the sperm through the zona. Where does the sperm intend to reach?
.What type of abnormality in the sperm that fertilizes a normal egg will produce an XYY zygote? What process can lead to the formation of this abnormal gamete?
Which of the following is NOT correct about oogenesis? * O the oocyte undergoes meiosis to produce one egg cell and three polar bodies O the oocyte undergoes mitosis to produce female gametes ) it occurs only in females diploid cell undergoes meiosis to produce four haploid cells it includes asymmetric division during gametes formation OO OO
Describe one function, brought about by the process of meiosis thatspermatogenesis and oogenesis have in common. Please write the similarities between spermatogenesis and oogenesis in a paragraph ratherthan a table. Please discuss the process mentioning differentiation, multiplication anddivision. How many stages of meiosis do they go through. Please mention if haploid ordiploid cells are formed.
..explain why meiosis occurs only in specialized cells (gametes), and that the overall goal of meiosis is to make haploid cells for sexual reproduction • ..outline the sequence of key chromosomal movements and rearrangements during the two meiotic divisions, identifying key similarities and differences between meiosis and mitosis • ..describe the ploidy of a cell before and after meiosis I and meiosis II, and how ploidy changes after separation of sister chromatids and homologous chromosomes
b. During anaphase I, the homologues separate differently and therefore the daughter cells following telophase I can have different eMase ntumeme of chromosomes. c. During fertilization variant sperm fertilize variant eggs, further helping to ensure that the new individual inherits different of homologues than a parent had. Mitosis and Meiosis
About sexual reproduction: Involves one parent where a new individual develops being an exact copy of the parent also known as clone and no gamete or reproductive organ is involved O Only the mother contributes with the oocyte or egg where a new individual is formed with an exact copy of the mother's genes O Involves two parents, where each parent contributes with special germ cells or gametes that once united in fertilization, a new individual develops receiving genetic material from both parents and the product of gene recombination O Involves the father only which contributes with special germ cells or spermatozoa that once fertilized, a new individual develops receiving genetic material from the father and the product of gene recombination Next » « Previous
1. It is the creation of an offspring by fusion of haploid gametes, male sperm and female eggs, to form a diploid zygote 2. The creation of offspring without the fusion of egg and sperm 3. The development of a new individual from an unfertilized egg 4. The union of egg and sperm, can be external or internal 5. A common opening between the external environment and the digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems in animals. 6. each individual has both male and female reproductive systems 7. Male gonads which produce sperm and testosterone. 8. Three (3) coiled tubes within each testis in which sperm is produced. 9. Tubular storage sac on top of each testis in which sperm mature. 10. The male gamete consists of head, middle piece, and tail. Released during ejaculation.
In cleavage states what is blastomeres, 2-cell stage, 4-cell stage, and 8-cell stage.
24) The process of gametogenesis starts with a stem cell in the gonads and produces gametes used in sexual reproduction. For the process of spermatogenesis and oogenesis in mammals, complete the following table: Spermatogenesis Gamete type produced Location occurs Number of haploid cells produced Life-stage that the process begins Life-stage that the process ends Oogenesis
