Chapter 8
Lesson 8.1
Introduction
Sexual reproduction
This is the union of the nuclei of
ovum and sperm cell.
Ovum and sperm cells are called
gametes.
Each gamete contains half the
number of chromosomes of a normal
body cell.
Introduction (contd)
Gametes (ovum and sperm cell)
Gametes are produced in the gonads.
Female gonads are the ovaries; male
gonads are the testes.
Introduction (contd)
Fertilization
An ovum leaves the ovaries and travels
through the fallopian tube.
Fertilization takes place if sperm cells are
present and unite with the ovum.
The fertilized egg implants then divides to
form a ball of cells, called a zygote (and
later an embryo and then a fetus).
