Reproduction in organisms: Asexual and sexual reproduction

Special modes-apomixis, parthenocarpy, polyembryony

Introduction Apomixis is a type of asexual reproduction in plants that involves the development of embryos and seeds rather than the fertilisation of sexual gametes.In the plant kingdom, this is a unique pathway for seed development because, in general, only gamete fusion leads to zygote formation, which leads to embryo formation, and then seed/s formation. […]

Size of the population

A population is defined as the number of organisms of the same species living in the same geographic region at the same time and capable of interbreeding. Individuals must be able to mate with any other member of a community and produce fruitful children for interbreeding to occur. Populations, on the other hand, include genetic

Significance of seed and fruit formation

Introduction Like humans, seeds and fruits are also formed through fertilization. Since the world’s inception, the process of formation of a human being, seed, or fruit has remained the same. Significance of seed and fruit formation definition Reproduction is a biological process where every new individual is produced through the sperm of the father and

Significance of Rearing

Rearing is the process of raising, feeding, reproducing and caring for useful animals. These animals produce one or more items that are beneficial to humans. Specimens of all sizes accepted fish and prawn food particles put to the tentacles in another investigation, however these were eventually rejected and never consumed. Factory work in warehouses, factories,

Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD)

STD is mainly referred to as a reproductive tract infection in some circles (RTI). AIDS, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, genital herpes and warts, Chlamydiosis and Hepatitis-B are only a few of the well-known sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Bacteria, viruses, and parasites of various strains all have a role in the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases. The majority

Sexual Reproduction in Plants

The term sexual reproduction includes participation of two gametes for generation of offspring. Sexual reproduction in plants involves different phases which consist of pre-fertilisation events, fertilisation and post-fertilisation events. The pre fertilisation events consist of microsporogenesis, megasporogenesis and transfer of gametes. Post-fertilization events consist of development of embryos after formation of zygote. In lower groups

Sexual Reproduction

Definition of Sexual Reproduction Sexual reproduction is the process in which new organisms are created, by combining the genetic information from two individuals of different sexes. The genetic information is carried on chromosomes within the nucleus of specialised sex cells called gametes. In males, these gametes are called sperm and in females the gametes are
