Reproduction in Plants
FLOWER STRUCTURE:
ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION:
In asexual reproduction an organism grows a new organism
from __itself__. Only _one_ parent is needed. The offspring is
genetically __identical_ to the parent.
Examples:
__bacteria__
_potato tubers_
__spores in fungi__
Advantages:
faster
only one parent needed
Disadvantages
little variation
SEXUAL REPRODUCTION:
Sexual reproduction involves _two_ parents. The parents have
sex organs which make sex cells or _gametes_.
Advantages
Generates variation
Disadvantages
Need to find a mate
Slower and more energy needed
WIND-POLLINATED
Brightly cloured
Dull in colour

Not scented
Sticky stigmas

SEED DISPERSAL:
Seeds need to be dispersed in order to avoid competition for resources. This can be done by the wind or by insects / animals.

ADOLESCENCE:
In males:
The hormone is _testosterone__ and it is made in the _testes_
Examples of changes are:
1. Deeper voice
2. _Facial hair__
3. _Increased muscle mass etc_
In females:
The hormones are _oestrogen__ and _progesterone_.
They are made in the _ovaries_ and the yellow body.
Examples of changes are: 1. __hips widen___
2. __breasts develop___
3. __menstruation starts_
MENSTRUATION (=
During menstruation,
the lining of the uterus
breaks down and
passes out through the
vagina. As soon as
this finishes a new egg
starts to develop in the
ovary.
When the egg is
developed (inside the
follicle), the follicle
bursts and the egg is
released. The empty
follicle forms the
yellow body.
While the egg is
developing, the
28 day cycle ):
PREGNANCY:
FERTILISATION
This occurs when the
nucleus of the sperm fuses
with the nucleus of the egg.
This now forms a zygote.
This normally takes place in
the fallopian tube / oviduct.
UMBILICAL CORD
Carbon dioxide and urea are
taken away from the foetus via
the umbilical artery.
Oxygen and glucose are taken
to the foetus via the umbilical
vein.
AMNION
The function of the amnion is to
protect the foetus.
It contains _amniotic_ fluid
which acts as a shock
absorber.
PLACENTA
The functions of the placenta
1. take nutrients to the foetus
2. take waste away
3. produce hormones e.g.
progesterone
GONORRHOEA:
Symptoms/ Signs
Effects
Treatment
ANTE-NATAL CARE:
IMPLANTATION
The zygote begins to divide and
moves down the fallopian tube
towards the uterus. When the
ball of cells sinks into the soft
lining of the uterus, it is now
called an embryo.
BIRTH:
Stage 1
Contraction of uterine muscles
Amnion breaks
Contractions become stronger
Cervix widens.
Stage 2
Baby is born
Umbilical cord is cut.
Stage 3
The placenta comes away from the uterus wall. This is the
afterbirth.
