B True or false questions

 
1   After  the  egg  is  fertilized  with  a  sperm,  it  will  develop  into  a  foetus  
and  then  an  embryo.  The  baby  will  be  born  after  about  40  weeks.  
 
*2   Cell  division  is  a  kind  of  reproduction.  
 
3   Cell  wall  is  an  elastic  structure  and  it  allows  the  plant  cell  to  change  
shape.  
 
4   During  labour,  the  placenta  contracts  and  pushes  the  baby  out  
through  the  vagina.  
 
5   Nocturnal  emission  is  the  flowing  out  of  urine  during  sleep.

E2   The  following  diagram  shows  in  vitro  fertilization  (IVF)  which  is  helpful  for  
couples  who  cannot  have  babies.  
 
Steps  of  IVF:  
1   Eggs  are  collected  from  
the  ovaries.  
↓  
2   The  eggs  are  mixed  with  
the  sperms  in  a  dish  for  
fertilization.  
↓  
3   Embryos  formed  in  the  
dish  are  put  back  to  the  
  uterus.  
 
a   Suggest  two  kinds  of  couples  who  need  IVF.  
       
       
b   Which  organ  of  the  husband  produces  sperms?  
       
c   In  which  part  of  the  body  should  fertilization  occur  naturally?  
       
d   The  chance  of  fertilization  by  IVF  is  much  greater  than  the  natural  
process.  Suggest  one  reason.  
       
       
       
       
e   In  order  to  have  babies  successfully,  one  important  condition  in  the  
process  of  IVF  is  needed  but  not  controllable.  What  is  this?
