2
New cards
Sexual Reproduction
Reproduction involving the combination of male and female gametes to create new organisms.
3
New cards
Gametes
Reproductive cells; males produce sperm and females produce eggs (ova).
4
New cards
Meiosis
A type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half, producing four gametes.
5
New cards
Fertilization
The union of male and female gametes to form a zygote.
6
New cards
Spermatogenesis
The process of sperm formation in males, taking place in the testes.
7
New cards
Oogenesis
The process of egg formation in females, occurring in the ovaries.
8
New cards
Lytic Cycle
A viral replication cycle that results in the destruction of the host cell and the release of new virions.
9
New cards
Conjugation
A form of sexual reproduction in bacteria involving the exchange of genetic material between a donor and recipient cell.
10
New cards
Zygote
A fertilized egg that results from the fusion of male and female gametes.
11
New cards
Parthenogenesis
A form of asexual reproduction where an embryo develops from an unfertilized egg.
