Gamete

society in another way. Children are taught about sex at an extremely young age and it bothers me how little anybody cares about it. The way people are treated at such young ages bothers me greatly. Before people are even born, they are created with gametes in test tubes. They are made in a factory like a product. Workers label people as Alphas, Betas, Delta, or Epsilons. The unborn infants are then deprived of what they need to live until they reach the correct level of…

It is easy to focus on the immediate and intended benefits of prescribed drugs that improve an aspect of our lives. But we don’t often think about where the active ingredients go after they have helped us. For example, women can be prescribed the birth control pill for assorted reasons, and it does an excellent job of fulfilling its job. However, we don’t often think about where those artificial hormones go when we’re done with them. What if they resurface again in an unexpected way? The…

alleles, the offspring could inherit one of the parents traits. Genetic diversity is caused by the crossing over of chromosomes during Prophase I, the random assignment of chromosomes at the equator during Metaphase II, and the random combination of gametes at fertilization. Say a red chromosome and a blue chromosome, homologous of course, are paired together during Prophase I, the chromosomes are crossed over, so now the blue chromosome contains a small amount of the red, and the red contains a…

Introduction: Organisms across various environments develop and displays complex behaviours. Terrestrial animals, such as lions, display evident social behaviours through the development of social structures called prides (Abell et al., 2013). Similarly, fish have developed numerous social, reproductive, and predatory behaviours that make them well adapted to various conditions. For example, observing reproductive behaviours of hermaphroditic reef fishes found that reproduction methods are…

the fossil record you will see some animals that did not live very long to keep reproducing and you will see the ones that have lived long enough to reproduce and develop . Embryology is another example of evolution it studies the development of gametes which are sex cells . It also is fertilization and development of embryos and fetuses…

We know that all living things need to make cells to survive. Old cells die and need to be replaced. In order for living things to continue to grow, cells are constantly being made. OpenStax states that the process of new cells being made is called cell division (2013). There are three types of cell division and those are binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. Binary fission is a quick and simple process involving replication, elongation, separation, and daughter cells. Meiosis and mitosis are…

dihybrid cross,two different traits (eye color and wings) are crossed for a particular organism (drosophila). For this lab, we were determining if the results of our monohybrid cross follows the mendelian law of equal segregation which says that a gamete receives only one copy of gene from the parent. And that the dihybrid cross demonstrates Mendel’s law of…

apart. During Telophase II and Cytokinesis. the cell divides and four new, genetically different cells are formed. Mitosis and meiosis are both ways to reproduce, however mitosis occurs in somatic cells while meiosis occurs in germ cells to create gametes. Both mitosis and meiosis share similar steps during their processes, although their end results are significantly different. Another similarity between the two is that the cell duplicates the genetic information in both mitosis and meiosis.…

fission in terms of results, chromosomes are replicated, copies are moved. The opposite ends of the parent cells separate giving rise to 2 daughter cells that are similar to the parent cell. Mitosis is the type of cell division that replicates gametes. It lowers the number of chromosomes by ½. When sperm fertilizes then it has full set of chromosomes.…

For example, big A has an allele that is responsible for being tall, small a has an allele for being short, small b has an allele for blue eyes, and big B has an allele for brown eyes; these different chromosomes will be separated into different gametes. This process creates a genetic variance in inheritance. The last step in meiosis II is cytokinesis and this is when the two daughter cells from the end of meiosis I separates into four haploid cells that contains one chromosome which has an…
