The purple sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) and a sympatric species known as the red sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus franciscanus) release their gametes into the Pacific Ocean at the same time, but the sperm cells of each species fail to fertilize the egg cells of the other species due to different membrane proteins. This prevention of interspecific fertilization in sea urchins is: a post-zygotic barrier known as F1 hybrid inviability a pre-zygotic barrier known as habitat isolation a post-zygotic barrier known as F1 hybrid sterility a pre-zygotic barrier known as gamete isolation a pre-zygotic barrier known as temporal isolation

The mouse haploid genome contains about 2.9 × 109 nucleotide pairs of DNA. Indicate how many nucleotide pairs of DNA are present in each of the following mouse cells: (a) somatic cell, (b) sperm cell, (c) fertilized egg,(d) primary oocyte, (e) first polar body, (f) secondary spermatocyte.
In certain salamanders, the sex of a genetic female can be altered, changing her into a functional male; these salamanders are called sex reversed males. When a sex-reversed male is mated with a normal female, approximately 23 of the offspring are female and 13 are male. How is sex determined in these salamanders? Explain the results of this cross
Most eukaryotic organisms reproduce sexually, but a few eukaryotic organisms, like Bdelloid rotifers, reproduce asexually. Which of the following describes the difference between the formation of cells in sexually reproducing eukaryotes and asexually reproducing rotifers? A - Sexually reproducing eukaryotes proceed through one stage of meiosis to produce haploid cells, while Bdelloid rotifers proceed through two divisions to produce diploid cells. B= Sexually reproducing eukaryotes proceed through two stages of meiosis to produce haploid cells, while Bdelloid rotifers only need to proceed through one division to produce diploid cells. C- DNA is replicated and divided once in the production of haploid cells in Bdelloid rotifers, while DNA is replicated and divided twice in the production of diploid cells in sexually reproducing eukaryotes. D- DNA is replicated and divided twice in the production of diploid cells in Bdelloid rotifers, while DNA is replicated and divided once in the…
In humans males are heterogametic and females are homogametic. Explain. Are there any examples where males are homogametic and females are heterogametic. Also, describe as to who determines the sex of the unborn child and if temperature plays a role in sex determenination.
The Amami spiny rat (Tokudaia osimensis) lacks a Y chromosome, yet scientists at Hokkaido University in Japan have reported that key sex-determining genes continue to be expressed in this species. Provide possible explanations for why male differentiation can still occur in this mammalian species despite the absence of a Y chromosome.
Gametogenesis in mammals is a complex process. When comparing spermatogenesis and oogenesis, indicated whether the follow statements are true or false. After the S phase, both the spermatogonial stem cell and primary oocyte have the same number of double-copy chromosomes. #analyze Question 1 options: True False Both the first polar body and the second polar body have the same number of chromosomes. #analyze Question 2 options: True False After the S phase, both the spermatogonial stem cell and primary oocyte have the same number of double-copy chromosomes. #analyze Question 3 options: True False Both the primary oocyte and the secondary spermatocyte have double-copy chromosomes. #analyze Question 4 options: True False
Based on Standard NGSS MS-LS3-2: Develop and use a model to describe why asexual reproduction results in offspring with identical genetic information and sexual reproduction results in offspring with genetic variation. In reference to the attached image, can you create a model that shows how it is possible that the twins ended up with such different traits yet have the same parents? Keeping in mind that the twins are a set of fraternal twins.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the alternation between fertilization and meiosis in sexually reproducing organism?
A sexually reproducing animal has two genes that assort independently, one for head shape (H) and one for tail length (T). Its genotype is HhTt. Which of the following genotypes is possible in a gamete from this organism?
Design a hypothetical experiment to determine the role of microtubules in gamete nuclear migration during fertilization of a fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster.
Suppose you read in the newspaper that a genetic engineering laboratory has developed a procedure for fusing two gametes from the same person (two eggs or two sperm) to form a zygote. The article mentions that an early step in the procedure prevents crossing over from occurring during the formation of the gametes in the donors body. The researchers are in the process of determining the genetic makeup of one of their new zygotes. Which of the following predictions do you think they would make? Justify your choice, and explain why you rejected each of the other choices. a. The zygote would have 46 chromosomes, all of which came from the gamete donor (its one parent), so the zygote would be genetically identical to the gamete donor. b. The zygote could be genetically identical to the gamete donor, but it is much more likely that it would have an unpredictable mixture of chromosomes from the gamete donors parents. c. The zygote would not be genetically identical to the gamete donor, but…
