Study Notes
Kingdoms, Animal Reproduction, and Asexual/Vegetative Reproduction
- The animal kingdom is divided into vertebrates and invertebrates, while the plant kingdom is characterized by immobility, multicellularity, and eukaryotic nature.
- The fungi kingdom includes yeasts, molds, and mushrooms.
- The protista kingdom is the most primitive eukaryotic group, with all other kingdoms being its descendants.
- The monera kingdom consists of microscopic prokaryotes.
- Sexual reproduction allows genetic material mixing, leading to variation in species.
- External fertilization involves releasing sperm and eggs into an external environment, while internal fertilization is direct sperm deposit into the female's body.
- Oviparous internal fertilization results in the egg completing development outside the mother's body, ovoviviparous internal fertilization develops the egg within the mother, and viviparous internal fertilization nourishes the egg through the mother's blood via placenta.
- Sterile parts of a flower provide support and attract insects for pollination, including the calyx, corolla, peduncle/pedicel, and receptacle.
- Essential parts of a flower include the stamen (male) and the pistil (female).
- Asexual reproduction is the creation of new organisms without gamete combination from a single parent.
- Modes of asexual reproduction include spore formation, budding, fission, fragmentation, and regeneration.
- Vegetative propagation is a mode of asexual reproduction in plants through runners/stolon, rhizomes, tubers, bulbs, and corms.
