Q

what is mitosis

A

a type of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells from a single parent cell

17
Q

what is meiosis

A

a type of cell division in sexually reproducing organisms that reduces the number of chromosomes in gametes

18
Q

What is sperm

A

Male reproductive cells

19
Q

What is an egg

A

Female reproductive cell

20
Q

What is a penis

A

A tube like structure that delivers sperm to the female reproductive system

21
Q

What are testes

A

One of the two male reproductive organs that produce sperm

22
Q

Semen

A

A mixture of sperm and other fluids

23
Q

What is an ovary

A

Organ in females where oocytes are stored and reach maturity

24
Q

Vagina

A

Part of the female reproductive system that connects the uterus to the outside of the body

25
Menstrual cycle
Prepares the ovaries and the uterus for new offspring
26
Ovulation
Process where an egg is released from an ovary (making it more likely to get pregnant)
27
Fertilization
Joining of an egg and and a sperm
28
Pregnancy
Period of development from fertilization egg to birth
29
Placenta
Organ formed from the outer cells of the zygote and cells from the uterus
30
Umbilical cord
Rope structure that attaches the developing offspring to the placenta
31
How is an unbiblical cord formed
From the outer zygote cells
32
Embryo
A zygote from the time it attaches to the uterus until the end of the eighth week of pregnancy
33
Fetus
A developing embryo from 9 weeks to birth
34
Cervix
Small structure between the uterus and vagina
35
Puberty
Process in which the reproductive system matures occurs during adolescence
