Concept explainers
Reproduction by a single animal, without the need for sperm fertilizing an egg, is called ____________ reproduction. A(n) ____________ is a new individual that grows on the body of the adult and eventually breaks off to become independent. During _________, an adult animal splits into two or more pieces, and each piece regenerates a complete organism.

Place the number in the blank that corresponds to the correct membrane that forms the system, or the structure that is formed by the membrane. Record the answers in the box in the same order as you entered the numbers from top to bottom. ____ Endoderm ____ Ectoderm ____ Umbilical Cord ____ Chorion ____ Circulatory System ___________arrow_forward

- How many modes of reproduction are there in animals? I. One type II. Two types III. Three types IV. Four typesarrow_forwardis when an egg is released from the ovary. This typically occurs once a month in females. occurs when the egg is not fertilized. It involves the egg being broken down by enzymes in the uterus, as well as the egg and the uterine lining being expelled from the body. occurs when male and female sex cells unite. Fertilization produces a which eventually turns into an embryo, and later into a fetus, is a word used to describe cell division in a zygote. The zygote undergoes cleavage/cell division to form a hollow ball of cells called a blastocyst. or After the zygote becomes a blastula, the cells keep dividing into a ball of cells that is composed of three germ layers. This ball of cells composed of three germs layers is called a is the process by which cells develop in different ways to perform different functions. Once it has begun, tissues and organs develop rapidly from the three germ layers of the gastrula. About 8 weeks after fertilization, the major organs have begun to develop and…arrow_forwardThe term newborn refers to the period from birth through _____, whereas the term infant refers to the period from _____.arrow_forward
