Study Notes
Animal Reproduction
- Animals reproduce to create offspring, ensuring the continuation of their species.
Primary Method of Animal Reproduction
- The primary method of animal reproduction is sexual reproduction, which involves the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg cells) to form a zygote.
Gametes in Animal Reproduction
- Gametes are haploid cells (containing half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell) that fuse during fertilization to form a diploid zygote (containing the full number of chromosomes).
- Gametes are specialized cells produced by the reproductive system, with the male gamete being the sperm and the female gamete being the egg cell.
- The role of gametes is to carry genetic information from the parent organisms to the offspring, ensuring genetic diversity and variation.
