Reproduction- A brief overview The fusion of the egg and sperm is often referred to as conception. This results in a fertilized egg which develops into a foetus. A foetus is developed two months after contraception. During the nine months which the foetus is developing is called pregnancy and it ends with giving birth to a baby. (Howard-Barr & Barrineau, 2005). Fertilization Each month the womens female reproductive system releases an egg from an ovary. This process is called ovulation in which
Reproduction What is reproduction? Reproduction is the term used to describe the production of new organisms from parent organisms. There are two main types of reproduction, asexual and sexual reproduction. In asexual reproduction, offspring which are genetically identical to the parent and the other offspring are produced via mitosis. In sexual reproduction, haploid gametes are produced by one or two parents, which fuse together (fertilization) to produce a diploid zygote. Meiosis is involved
All living things reproduce. Reproduction — the process by which organisms make more organisms like themselves — is one of the things that set living things apart from nonliving matter. But even though the reproductive system is essential to keeping a species alive, unlike other body systems, it's not essential to keeping an individual alive. In the human reproductive process, two kinds of sex cells, or gametes are involved. The male gamete, or sperm, and the female gamete, the egg or ovum, meet

Daniella Evans Life cycle and reproduction of a flowering plant. [pic] Almost all flowering plants are known as ‘Angiosperms’, which means plants whose seed production comes from flowering. Seeds are packaged within a fruit to be transported away from parent plant. Angiosperms are vascular plants containing xylem and phloem in bundled patterns. Plant cells, unlike animals they have multicellular haploid and multicellular diploid stages in there cycle. By the process of meiosis, diploid
Here’s a list of differences between the process of spermatogenesis and oogenesis in frog. Spermatogenesis | Oogenesis | 1) Process of formation of spermatozoa 2) It occurs in testis 3) Growth phase is shorter. 4. All maturation divisions are equal. 5. Polar bodies are not formed. 6. 4 sperms are formed from each primary spermatocyte. | 1) Process of formation of ova 2) It occurs in ovaries. 3) Growth phase is longer. 4. All maturation divisions are not equal. 5. Polar bodies are
Health is undoubtedly more than the absence of diseases and illnesses. According to World Health Organisation WHO (2004), the social conditions in which people live in greatly influence their chances of getting good health. The important determinant of most diseases, death and health inequalities are factors such as poverty, unhealthy early childhood conditions, poor diet and being able to adapt to stressful situations in everyday life. The link between the determinant of health and actual level
REPRODUCTION Introduction The reproductive system is the communication of life, which humans enabled to change and survive for several million years. The function of the reproductive system is to produce gametes and provide best possible conditions for the fusion of two gametes from the male and one from female. This report will explain through reproduction system. (Montague et.al,2005 Physiology for nursing practice book). 1.1 The structure and function of the male and female reproductive
Concept 46.1 I. Both Sexual and Asexual Reproduction Occur in the Animal Kingdom. A. Asexual Reproduction -Mitosis – two new identical nuclei are formed from one dividing nucleus; responsible for the formation of somatic cells. Two-step process of asexual reproduction: 1. Fragmentation – body breaks down into pieces. 2. Regeneration – re-growth of lost body parts. Forms of asexual reproduction: 1
