Question

Transcribed Image Text:Reflect and Connect Activity
Help Sarah understand the structures and functions of the female reproductive system by
describing the pathway an ovum (egg) will travel from development in the ovary to
expulsion during menstruation or fertilization. Remember to include any supporting
structures in your description. Finally, address two physical problems that can prevent the
ovum from reaching the uterine end of the Fallopian tube.
1.
The following questions should be answered as part of the journey description:
Where does the egg develop?
Where does the egg mature?
Where was the egg stored?
How does an egg travel through the female reproductive system?
Does the egg "pick up lunch?"
What processes facilitate locomotion? If the egg can move, what provides the
energy for movement?
What dangers does the egg face on the journey?
What parts of the male reproductive system help to overcome the dangers?
If possible, paste your response into the Answer box below. Otherwise, submit it to your
teacher when instructed to do so later in this lesson.

The daughter cells produced in mitosis are genetically similar to the parent cells and have the same number of chromosomes, while these are genetically different in meiosis and have half the number of chromosomes. c.) The daughter cells produced in both cases are genetically similar to the parent cells, but in meiosis, there are fewer chromosomes. d.)
