Types of Gametes What are examples of gametes? What are the different types of gametes?The gametes involved in fertilization can be similar (referred to asisogamy) or the two gametes may be different (referred t
An example of gametic isolation is when many different species are all releasing gametes at the same time but only ones from the same species are able to fertilize and create a zygote.Gametic Isolation One of the most basic concepts in biology is the concept of a species. A species is a...
or offspring. Reproduction is either sexual or asexual. Sexual reproduction is the formation of offspring by the fusion ofgametes. Asexual reproduction is the formation of offspring without the fusion of gametes. Sexual reproduction results in offspring genetically different from the parents. Asexual off...
The distinguishing feature of asexual reproduction is the “requirement of only one parent” to produce the next generation of individual organisms. Asexual reproduction doesn’t demand the participation of 2 parents (i.e. no need for fusion of 2 gametes; one male and one female) to produce th...
And the reason you do that is so that you can easily follow the transmission of alleles, and also, so that the F1 will be a heterozygote, because these are the gametes produced. So from the parental, you get 1 wild type allele and 2 mutants, and the other parent, you get 1 mutant...
The egg and the sperm are known as gametes. Prezygotic barriers occur before fertilization, making it unlikely or impossible for members of different species to mate. Examples of these barriers include differences in habitats, mating rituals and genitals. Postzygotic barriers occur after fertilization ...
Zygotes are formed in all sexually reproducing diploid or polyploidy organisms. Based on their different characters, some examples of zygotes are: 1. Fungi zygote It is also called zygospore. Fungi bodies are haploid mycelium. They develop into male and female gametes, in the Gametophytic stage...
How are DNA replication and transcription different? How is the process of translation and transcription able to make other proteins, using genes from other species? Why does mRNA need to be created? How does it leave the nucleus? How are germ cells and gametes related? How does DNA cont...
Eukaryotic genome size varies significantly among different species. Therefore, eukaryotic cells may contain non-coding genes that are not involved in the production of proteins. Non-coding genes may be more than coding genes in some eukaryotes due to the presence of transposable elements and repetiti...
Unlike in sexual reproduction wherein male and female gametes unite to reproduce offspring, in asexual reproduction, this union is not necessary. The organism can reproduce in the absence of a mate which, in this case, produces offspring which is usually a clone of the parent. The different ...
