plant and animal systems Flashcards
(17 cards)
Single individual gives rise to offspring, no genetic input from another individual
asexual reproduction
parents separate into 2 or more offspring of equal size
fission
a new individual develops while attached to the parent; offspring may break free from the parent/remain attached
budding
pieces separate from the body of a parent and develop or regenerate into new individuals
fragmentation
male and female parts produce offspring through fusion of gametes
sexual reproduction
occurs in most aquatic invertebrates, bony fishes, and amphibians
external fertilization
takes place in reptiles, birds, mammals, annelids, mollusks, and fishes
internal fertilization
have a reflex response called amplexus
amphibian external fertilization
lay egg that contain nutrients needed for development of the embryo outside the mothers body
oviparous animals
retain the embryo within the mothers uterus
viviparous animals
retain fertilized eggs within the body
oviviparous animals
change from one sex to another
sequential hermaphrodites
develop functional ovaries and testes at the same time
simultaneous hermaphrodites
both mature egg-producing and mature sperm producing tissues are present in the same individual
hermaphroditism
there is no union of haploid maternal and paternal gametes formed by meiosis
apomixis
a new genetically identical individual develops from a parent plants non reproductive tissue
vegetative reproduction
