Name of the NEET sub-section | Topic | Flashcards helpful for |
Biology | Reproduction in Organisms | NEET exams |
Asexual reproduction | Single parent gives rise to offsprings
Morphologically and genetically identical offsprings |
Clone | Produced by asexual reproduction
Exact copy, which is Morphologically and genetically identical |
Asexual reproductive structures | Zoospores- Chlamydomonas
Conidia- Penicillium Buds- Hydra Gemmules- Sponge |
Binary Fission | In unicellular organisms.
The cell divides to give rise to two individuals. E.g. Amoeba, Paramecium, bacteria, etc. |
Budding | Buds are produced as an outgrowth due to unequal division, which separates from the parent cell giving rise to new organisms.
E.g. Yeast, Hydra, etc. |
Encystation | Forming a hard cyst or capsule surrounding protoplasm under unfavourable condition.
E.g. Amoeba, etc. |
Sporulation | Liberation of spores from encapsulated cysts under favourable conditions. |
Vegetative propagules | Vegetative parts of the plants, which are capable of developing into offsprings |
Vegetative propagules | Bulbils- Agave
Leaf buds- Bryophyllum Offset- Water hyacinth, Pistia Rhizome- Banana, Ginger |
Terror of Bengal | Water hyacinth |
Sexual reproduction | Fusion of male and female gametes |
Strobilanthus kunthiana | Neelakuranji
Flower once in 12 years |
Reproductive cycle | Cyclic changes during reproductive phase in female placental mammals.
Oestrous cycle – non-primates Menstrual cycle – primates |
Gametogenesis | Formation of male and female gametes
Isogametes – morphologically similar gametes, e.g. Cladophora, etc. Heterogametes – Distinct egg and sperm, e.g. Fucus, Homo sapiens, etc. |
Homothallic | Monoecious or bisexual
Having both male and female reproductive structures in a single organism. E.g. cucurbits, coconut, Chara, etc. |
Heterothallic | Dioecious or unisexual
Male and female reproductive structures are present in different organisms. E.g. Papaya, date palm, Marchantia, etc. |
Hermaphrodite | Both male and female reproductive structures are present in an organism.
E.g. sponge, earthworm, leech, tapeworm, etc. |
Meiocyte | The diploid gamete mother cell
Undergoes meiosis to form haploid gametes |
Parthenogenesis | Development of new individual from the female gamete without fertilisation.
E.g. honeybees, turkey, rotifers, some lizards, etc. |
Embryogenesis | Development of embryo from a zygote by mitosis cell division and cell differentiation. |
Oviparous | Egg laying animals, e.g. amphibians, reptiles, birds, etc. |
Viviparous | Animals giving birth to young ones, e.g. most of the mammals. |
Embryogenesis in flowering plants | Zygote – Embryo
Ovary – Fruit Ovule – Seed |
