Development
Reproduction Song
Animals reproductive by asexual and sexual methods:
Asexual is the production of offspring with genes all from one
individual, without the fusion of gametes.
Sexual involves formation of gametes and fertilization, genetic
variation
Asexual Methods Include:
Gemmules in Sponges
Parthenogenesis: an unfertilized egg develops
Number of Eggs: ?
Parental Care: ?
Habitat: ?
Amphibian
Reptile
Bird
Mammal
Reproductive System of the Human Male

Formation of the zygote and early post-fertilization events
Cleavage occurs over several days following
fertilization. The zygote divides as it travels through
the oviduct. By the time the cilia of the oviduct
deliver the embryo to the uterus, the embryo is a ball
of cells called a blastocyst. The blastocyst implants
in the endometrium.
A blastocyst forms nearly a
week after fertilization
Four membranes
protect and nourish the
embryo, which consists
of three tissue layers.
Nutrients and waste products are exchanged between the fetus and the
mother within the placenta. The umbilical vein (red) carries oxygen-rich
blood and nutrients to the fetus. The umbilical arteries are blue,
indicating that they carry oxygen-depleted blood and waste products
away from the fetus.
Placental circulation: materials are exchanged by diffusion,
active transport, and selective absorption. Not by direct blood
contact.
