What is the adaptive advantage (benefit) of internal fertilization compared to external fertilization in sexually reproducing animals? 2. What does the statement, The secret to biological success for a species lies in the populations' ability to reproduce & pass on their genes before they die. mean to you? 3. What might be the biological advantage (benefit) for organisms to reproduce both sexually and asexually (for example potato plants, and Sea Stars can do this)? PART C: 1. Read, study and know pages Answer questions 1 through 4 in the CONCEPT REVIEW on page 146. Please number your response, and answer the questions in complete intelligent thoughts. 1

2 * Sections 6.3 through 6.5: Formation of Reproductive Cells, Read pages 147 to 151 PART A: Define the terms in your own words. Sperm Egg (ova) Zygote Diploid(2n) Haploid(n) Homologous chromosomes Meiosis Crossing over PART B: 1. Compare the number of chromosome of a corn plant, human, and a fruit fly. (see your text for help) 2. If gametes were diploid the resulting zygote would have how many chromosomes? (Give your answer in haploid(n) number. Example 2n, or 3n, or 4n, or 5n, or ) 3. Explain why meiosis is also referred to as reduction division. 4. Name the process that makes haploid gametes. 5. Summarize meiosis using your own words, and by drawing a diagram showing the 2n germline cells undergoing Meiosis I and II to produce four haploid(n) gametes. 2
