LS4-3. Analyze displays of pictorial data to compare patterns of similarities in the embryological development across multiple species to identify relationships not evident in the fully formed anatomy

What is Reproduction?

The two basic forms are asexual and sexual

Gametes

A gamete is a reproductive cell of an animal or plant. In animals, female gametes are called ova or egg cells, and male gametes are called sperm

  • What is a GAMETE?
  • What is an ZYGOTE?
  • What is a SPERMATOZOON?
  • Describe an OVUM
  • Using the terms you learned here, describe fertilization
  • Is a GAMETE haploid or diploid? Explain why you chose your answer

here's an idea, create a type of puzzle where fertilization steps can be put together

Gametes are an organism's reproductive cells

A female produces a larger gamete called an OVUM or EGG A male produces SPERM CELLS or spermatozoa which are small and motile GAMETES contain one set of chromosomes (known as haploid). This is half the genes needed to form a complete organism During fertilization, a spermatozoon and ovum unite and form a new diploid cell which is called an ZYGOTE

1. What is a zygote?

what is an embryo?

An embryo is the initial stage of development of a multicellular organism

Embryonic development begins with the fertilization of an egg cell (ovum) by a sperm cell (spermatozoon). The pair of gametes (another term for egg and sperm) becomes the first diploid cell and is known as a zygote The zygote undergoes mitotic divisions without growing in size (a process known as cleavage) and cellular differentiation, leading to development of a multicellular embryo

What is Embryology?

Ontogeny is the origin, growth, and development of an organism. It is a story of the changes from the beginning of life through adulthood and aging. Here we see drawings of animals from early embryo through birth. All animals follow a path which is similiar

German naturalist Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919) is known for the phrase “ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny”. His theory was that all animals followed the same pattern of embryonic development. A chick embryo early in development looks like a fish, complete with fins, gills, and a fishy tail. Then it resembles a reptile, and finally looks like a chick. Likewise, a human embryo resembles a fish, then a reptile and finally a human.

Three different species, and yet the phases they go through during embryogenesis look very similar. Here we have 2 mammals, one is a monotreme (kangaroo) and a fish! All vertebrates; very different when fully developed, yet embryologically similar
