    Study Notes

    Sexual Reproduction

    • During sexual intercourse, the interaction between the male and female reproductive systems results in fertilization, where a sperm cell from the male fertilizes an egg cell from the female.

    Gametes

    • Specialized reproductive cells, responsible for carrying genetic information, are called gametes.

    Chromosomes in Gametes

    • Gamete cells contain half the number of chromosomes, specifically 23, which is a haploid number (n).

    Genetic Recombination

    • Genetic recombination occurs in the zygote, during the process of fertilization, where the genetic material from both parents combines to create a unique individual.

    Development Process

    • The defined development process, from zygote to fully formed organism, is known as embryogenesis.
