- Complete cleavage is called meroblastic. True Falsearrow_forwardThere 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.

- 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?arrow_forwardWhich of the following does NOT aid the sperm in fertilization? * Increased mitochondria Cytoplasmic bridge Acrosomes Flagellum development Hyaluronidase & proteasearrow_forwardDefine cleavagearrow_forward
- why should a nursing student know the prevalence of premature rupture of membranes in adolescent pregnancy and adult pregnancy?arrow_forwardA spermatogonial cell undergoes mitosis before entering the meiotic cell cycle en route to the production of sperm. However, during mitosis the cytoplasm fails to divide, and only one daughter cell is produced. A resultant sperm eventually fertilizes a normal ovum. What is the chromosomal complement of the embryo?arrow_forward_____ production is continuous from puberty onward in males; _____ production is cyclic and intermittent in females. a. Egg; sperm b. Sperm; egg c. Testosterone; sperm d. Estrogen; eggarrow_forward
- Cell differentiation occurs through _______________, whereas morphogenesis involves _______________. (a) pattern formation; cell determination (b) cell division; cell expansion (c) cell expansion; pattern formation (d) cell determination; cell division (e) cell determination; pattern formationarrow_forwardFigure 43.17 Which of the following statements about the menstrual cycle is false? Progesterone levels rise during the luteal phase of the ovarian cycle and the secretory phase of the uterine cycle. Menstruation occurs just after LH and FSH levels peak. Menstruation occurs after progesterone levels drop. Estrogen levels rise before ovulation, while progesterone levels rise after.arrow_forwardWhat is the source of different cytoplasmic determinants present in the embryo after fertilization? They are introduced into the cell when the zygote divides They were produced during the process of fertilization. They are within the cytoplasm of the egg cell. They are from the sperm cell.arrow_forward
