What are HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES?
These chromosomes contain genes for the same traits, but are not identical chromosomes.
100
What is a GENE MUTATION
A change in a small section of DNA that codes for a particular protein.
100
What are OVARIES
These two structures produce oocytes from puberty to menopause.
100
What are SPERM CELLS?
These gametes are best produced at temperatures lower than body temperature.
100
What GENETIC VARIATION?
This is the main advantage of sexual reproduction.
200
What are SISTER CHROMATIDS?
These chromosomes are identical chromosomes produced during DNA replication
200
What is a ZYGOTE?
This is the name of the cell that is formed by the union of the sperm and egg.
200
What is the OVIDUCT
This is another name for the fallopian tube.
200
What are TESTES?
Sperm are produced in these structures.
200
What is EXTERNAL FERTILIZATION?
This type of fertilization occurs outside of the animal's body
300
What is METAPHASE 1?
During this phase of meiosis, homologous chromosomes line up in pairs along the equator of the cell.
300
What is the ECTODERM?
This layer of the Gastrula gives rise to the skin cells.
300
What is and EGG or OOCYTE?
On average, 400 of these are produced during a woman's lifetime
300
What is the VAS DEFERENS?
This structure carries sperm from the testes to the prostate gland.
300
What is MATING?
This animal behaviour brings sperm and egg together at the same place and time. CAREFUL!
400
What is ANAPHASE 2?
During this phase of meiosis, sister chromatids are separated.
400
What is a CHROMOSOMAL MUTATION?
Down Syndrome if an example of this kind of mutation.
400
What is the UTERUS?
A developing embryo implants here at about day 6 after fertilization.
400
What is the EPIDIDYMIS?
Sperm are stored in these structures.
400
What is IN VITRO FERTILIZATION
This is a reproductive technology where sperm and egg are united in a lb ouside of the body.
500
What METAPHASE 1?
Independant Assortment and Crossing Over occur during this phase of meiosis.
500
What is the PLACENTA?
This is the name of the organ that develops between the uterus and the developing embryo.
500
What are ESTROGEN and PROGESTERONE?
These are two important hormaones that regulate the menstrual cycle
500
What are INTERSTITIAL CELLS
Testosterone is produced by these cells.
500
What is INTRACYTOPLASMIC SPERM INJECTION?
This is a reproductive technology where a single sperm is injected into an oocyte.
