What are the stages of cell division? Describe them:


G1: cell increases its organelles and cytoplasm
S: DNA replication
G2: Same as G1
M: The cell divides into two

I
Biology – Reproduction
What does crossing over lead to in phrophase I?
Genetic recombination
Biology – Reproduction
What separates in metaphase I?
Homologous chromosomes separate during metaphase I
Biology – Reproduction
What does not happen in meiosis II that happens in
mitosis?
No replication
Biology – Reproduction
Where does meiosis occur?
Spermatogenesis and oogenesis
Biology – Reproduction
What are the four stages of early development?
Describe them:
Cleavage: Mitotic divisions
Implantation: Embryo implants during blastula stage
Gastrulation: Ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm
Neurulation: Germ layers develop a nervous system
Biology – Reproduction
Describe what occurs in each stage of gastrulation:
Ectoderm: Nervous system, epidermis, lens of eye, and
inner ear
Endoderm: lining of digestive tract, lungs, liver and
pancreas
Mesoderm: muscles, skeleton, circulatory system, gonads,
and kidney

What is a morula?
A solid ball of cells resulting from division of a fertilized
ovum, and from which a blastula is formed
Biology – Reproduction
What is a blastula?
A hollow sphere of cells, referred to as blastomeres,
surrounding an inner fluid-filled cavity called the
blastocoele formed during early stages of embryonic
development
Biology – Reproduction
What is a blastocoele?
The inner fluid-filled cavity surrounded by the blastula
