forming a zygote. Sperm cells are believed to have a sense of smell in which they use to locate the egg which is one of the clue factors sperm cells use‚ sperm cells do not just swim around randomly before locating an egg to fertilize. In the females reproductive tract it becomes warmer as the Fallopian tubes are neared. That is also another clue factor that sperm cells use when attempting to locate and fertilize a females egg. In order for full fertilization to occur the cell must penetrate different layers

amounts of well known environmental contaminants‚ such as dioxin‚ PCBs and DDT‚ can affect hormone levels. Hormones are produced by the endocrine system as regulators of biological function in target organs. Because hormones play a critical role in early development‚ toxicological effects on the endocrine system often have an impact on the reproductive system. The term endocrine disruptor is used to describe chemicals that can mimic hormones and may either enhance or counteract their effects. It has

Sexually Reproductive organisms include mammals‚ most reptiles‚ and flowering plants. ADVANTAGES There is greater genetic variation of the offspring and therefore‚ greater chance of survival in changing environments. Asexual Reproduction is the process by which a single organism produces a new organism identical to itself. An asexually reproducing organism does not require a partner to produce offspring. It is a process that requires no fusion of gametes whatsoever. Asexually Reproductive organisms

into the uterus‚ and then the fallopian tube where the egg is waiting. Only one sperm cell is needed to fertilize the ovum‚ so after the ovum has been fertilized the outer layer of the egg hardens to prevent any other cells from penetrating. (Reproductive System) During fertilization‚ the twenty-three chromosomes from the male sperm combine with the twenty-three chromosomes from the female ovum. The sperm holds the sex chromosome and will determine the sex of the offspring. Once the egg is fertilized

Biology: Research Task and Oral PresentationResearch Task:1.Describe some mechanisms found in Australian fauna to ensure:•Fertilisation•Survival of the embryo and of the young after birthFertilisation is the fusion of haploid sex cells in the action of sexual reproduction. It is often a difficult process as:• careful timing is required: both female and male gametes need to be produced and released at the same time• arrangements need to be made to bring the gametes together• A watery medium is always

has never occurred to me that cultural beliefs could influence how a biologist described their discoveries. I had no idea that within the scientific accounts of reproductive biology‚ there could be a hidden stereotype implying that the male reproductive system is more dominant and active in its role than the female reproductive system. When I first began reading this article‚ I was a bit skeptical and thought that the author might have taken her ideas way a little far by thinking in between the

(Assisted Reproductive Technologies) There are many things that can cause infertility in both a man and women. Infertility can be cause by poor lifestyle or sexual habits. Although both of these problems can be reversed by change‚ there are more excessive problems that can happen to a man of a women to cause infertility. PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease) is the most common cause of infertility worldwide in women. PID is an infection in the pelvis or one or more of the reproductive organs
