Study Notes
Female Reproductive Organs and Fertilization in Animals
- Female reproductive organs in humans include ovaries, oviducts, and the uterus.
- Ovary produces female gametes called ova or eggs.
- Fertilization is the fusion of a sperm and an ovum, resulting in the formation of a zygote.
- Human beings have internal fertilization, which occurs inside the female body.
- In some cases of infertility, in vitro fertilization (IVF) is used to allow fertilization outside the body.
- Fertilization in animals can also occur externally, such as in fish and frogs.
- External fertilization results in the formation of a zygote, which develops into an embryo.
- The embryo gets embedded in the wall of the uterus for further development and eventually becomes a foetus.
- Animals that lay eggs, such as frogs, have external development of the embryo.
- Some animals are viviparous, giving birth to live young, while others are oviparous, laying eggs.
- The production of large numbers of eggs and sperms in animals is necessary to ensure fertilization and survival of the offspring.
- Fertilization and development processes vary among different species of animals.
