Cytokinesis is unequal in oogenesis whereas it i equal in spermatogenesis 2.) spermatogenesis is not completed until after fertilization occurs, but oogenesis is completed by the time a girl is born 3.) Oogenesis produces four haploid cells, whereas spermatogenesis produces only one functional spermatozoon 4.) Oogensis ends at menopause. Whereas spermatogenesis is finished before birth 5.)

OA) Intermediate mesoderm OB) Notochord C) Paramesonephric (müllerian) duct OD) Prechordal plate OE) Urogenital sinusarrow_forward1. In Deuterostomes, nutrient molecules (monomers) are taken into the space between the endoderm and the ectoderm because a) the ectoderm makes protein for movement, b) the endoderm cells release hydrolytic enzymes that act on polymers, c) the endoderm releases enzymes that carry out dehydration synthesis of proteins. d) mRNA polymerase causes transcription. e) all are correct. 2.The Amoeba cell exhibits specialized abilities that enable it to react to a stimulus by producing a response or a behavior. It can do this because it has adapted properties exhibited by simpler more primitive cells. These cellular properties include a) Separation of the fluid environments inside and outside the cell. b) Active transport of Na+ out of and K+ into the cell, c) diffusion of Na+ in to and K+ out of a cell in reaction to a stimulus, d) the stimulus interacting with a receptor site in a membrane embedded protein, e) All of these are true.arrow_forwardWhy is the ovum so much bigger than a sperm cell? 1)It already contains all the chromosomes that will determine the zygote's traits. 2)It must store enough food for the growth of the zygote into an embryo. 3)Its big size allows the sperm to locate it better inside the oviduct. 4)A big ega is easier to implant in the uterus after tertilization.arrow_forward
