NAU bio182 animal reproduction
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 3 types of asexual reproduction | budding, parthenogenesis, and regeneration. |
| Budding | produces new individuals that form from the bodies of older animals by mitotic division. Results in a genetically identical structure, physically attached to the parent. |
| regeneration- | can replace damaged tissue or may form a complete individual. It's the regrowth of structures. (echinoderms) |
| parthenogenesis | development of offspring from unfertilized eggs. (bees- fertilized egg is female worker. Unfertilized egg is male drone) |
| Whiptail lizard | reproduces by parthenogenesis. female acts as male during courtship and mating. No sperm is produced or transfered. |
| Parthenogenesis in whiptail lizard | when progesterone peaks-acts as male. When estrogen level is high- acts as female. |
| Temp sex determination in turtles | colder temps- most likely to be male. |
| Temp sex determination in Jacky lizards (Amphibolurus muricatus) | male at intermediate temperatures. Female at high or low temp. |
| Temp sex determination in aligators | Male at high temp. Female at low temp. |
| Protandry | all born male. (clown fish) |
| protogyny | all born female (rainbow wrasses) two male phases |
| Bacterium Wolbachia affect sex determination in some arthropods by | Preventing mating 2 strains infected w/ 2 species of Wolbachia. Some species cannot reproduce without bacterium. |
| How many sex chromosomes are in a platypus? | 10 |
| Oviparous | Animals lay eggs in environment and embryos develop outside mothers body (insects, reptiles, birds, protherian mammals) |
| Ovoviviparous | Young hatch inside mothers and are born live (western diamondback rattlesnake, sea horse) |
| Viviparparous | live birth. embryo develops within mother.(placental mammals. walrus. All mammals except protherian) |
