Reproduction and development

Cards (96)

  • REPRODUCTION - enables life to continue as different groups of species generate offspring of the same kind
  • WHAT ARE THE 2 TYPES OF REPRODUCTION?
    •SEXUAL REPRODUCTION
    •ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION
  • In what different ways do animals reproduce?
    •ASEXUAL
    •SEXUAL
    - HERMAPHRODITISM
    - SEPARATE SEXES
    a) EXTERNAL FERTILIZATION
    b) INTERNAL FERTILIZATION
  • ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION - no fusion of a sperm and an egg
  • SEXUAL REPRODUCTION - fusion of a sperm and an egg forms a zygote
  • HERMAPHRODITISM - an individual animal produces both male and female gametes
  • SEPARATE SEXES - male produces sperm and female produces eggs
  • EXTERNAL FERTILIZATION - an egg encounters sperm outside of the mate reproductive tract
  • INTERNAL FERTILIZATION - an egg encounters sperm inside the female reproductive tract
  • RUNNERS - horizontal stems that grow below soil surface, while new plants grow at the end or at the nodes
  • RHIZOMES - long horizontal stems that grow underground
  • TUBERS - underground stems or enlarged fleshy roots containing stored food
  • BULBS - short underground vertical shoots that have thickened leaves for food storage
  • BUDDING - from the body of he parent, new offspring grows out or splits off
  • FISSION - the parent separates into two of more individuals of about equal size
  • INTERNAL BUDS - parent releases a specialized mass of cells that may develop into an offspring
  • FRAGMENTATION - the body of the parent breaks into several pieces which may develop into adults
  • REGENERATION - a detached part of the parent may grow and develop into a new individual
  • 4 IMPORTANT PART OF A PLANT
    LEAF
    PETAL
    PISTIL/CARPEL (FEMALE)
    STAMEN (MALE)
  • SEXUAL REPRODUCTION - slow process of producing offspring with the union of two parents, a male and a female
  • SEXUAL REPRODUCTION - uses flower, fruit and seed for plants
  • SEXUAL REPRODUCTION - uses different gonads and gametes for animals
  • FLOWER - reproduction organs of a plant
  • MALE PLANT - pollen grains
  • FEMALE PLANT - ovules
  • GAMETES - sex cells or reproductive cells
  • OVULES - megaspores that develop into egg cell
  • POLLEN GRAINS - microspores that develop into sperm cells
  • STAMEN
    •male flower part
    •consist of pollen sac (another) and a long supporting filament
  • ANTHERS/ANTHER - sacs releases pollen on to the outside of the anthers that brush against insects on entering the flower
  • PISTIL/CARPEL
    • female flower part
    • consist of stigma, style and ovary
  • STIGMA - is covered in a sticky substance that the pollen grains will adhere to
  • STYLE - raises the stigma away from the ovary to decrease the likelihood of pollen contamination. It varies in length
  • OVARY - protects the ovule and once fertilisation has taken place it will become the fruit
  • OVULE - is like the egg in animals and once fertilisation has taken place it will become the seed
  • TYPES OF FLOWERS
    COMPLETE FLOWER
    INCOMPLETE FLOWER
    PERFECT FLOWER
    IMPERFECT FLOWER
  • COMPLETE FLOWER - it has all four basic part . Sepal, petal, stamen, and carple/pistil
  • INCOMPLETE FLOWER - it lacks some basic part (ex. no stamen or no pistil)
  • PERFECT FLOWER - it has both stamen and pistil
  • IMPERFECT FLOWER - it has either stamen or pistil
