 The animals give birth to young ones and
have epidermal hair on their skin and
external ears are called viviparous
animals.
 The animals that lay eggs do not have
epidermal hair on external years are
called Oviparous Animals.
Animals reproduce both sexually and
asexually
We had already studied how
potato,bryophyllum and chrysanthemum
reproduce? It was asexually mode of
reproduction in plants.Now we shall see
how animals reproduce asexually
In some animals the formation of
gametes does not take place.Still they
produce off springs like them selves.
As the formation of gametes does not
take place there is no question of
fusion of gametes. such process of
reproduction is called asexual
reproduction.
Pollen grains produced in the pollen sac reach
the stigma of a flower ,where they
germinate. a long tube is formed from the
pollen grains that reaches the ovary. The
male reproductive cell of the pollen grains
travels down this tube to the ovary where it
fuses with the female reproductive cell. So
the sexual reproduction is basically the
fusion of the male reproductive cell with the
female reproductive cell
in animals as well, sexual
reproduction occurs by the fusion of
female reproductive cell or ovum
and the male reproductive cell or
the sperm . The body formed there
after is called zygote
Get permanent slides of different stages of
budding in hydra . observe them under a
micro scope . Look out for any bulges
from the parent body count the number
of bulges and also observe the difference
in their size from one slide to the next .
Also, note the size of the bulges .
Hydra , a microscopic organism
reproduces asexually . In each
hydra , there may be one or more
bulges , called buds . In hydra also
we see budding where new
individuals develop from the buds
this type of asexual reproduction is
called budding .
After the nucleus gets matured , it starts
dividing . After the complete division of
the nucleus the body of amoeba divides
into two . Thus a single parent forms to
two daughter amoeba . Thus the parent
becomes non existent . This type of
asexual reproduction in which an animal
reproduces by dividing into two
individuals is called binary fission
You might have seen a cow giving birth to
a calf . A she goat gives birth to a lamb
and a woman gives birth to a baby . Lets
recall how a seed is formed from a flower
it is formed from ovary . Pollen grains
play any role in formation of seeds . Like
wise a male produces sperms which is
essential for reproduction.
The male reproductive organs are
situated just below the abdomen . It
includes a pair of testis . Two sperm
ducts and a penis . The testes are egg
shaped and produce the male gametes or
sperms . It is connected with a pair of
seminal ducts through which sperms
travel and ejaculate out with the help of
penis .
Millions of sperms are produced
by the testes . These are
microscopic and single celled .
Each sperm has a head , a middle
piece and a tail . The head bears
a nucleus . It gets energy from
mitochondria present in the
middle piece .
Male reproductive system
The female reproductive organs are
situated inside the abdomen just below
the navel of women . It contains a pair of
ovaries , oviducts and uterus . The
ovaries lie inside the abdomen in the hip
region of the body , one on each side of
the uterus . each ovary is placed just
below the funnel shaped opening of the
fallopian tubes.
The ovary produces female gametes
called ova [ovum in singular] or eggs . In
human beings , a single matured egg is
released into the oviduct by one of the
ovaries every month . Uterus is the part
where development Of the baby takes
place . Like the sperm , an ovum is also a
single cell . The ovum is surrounded by an
outer covering and a nucleus floating in
cytoplasm is found in the centre of it .
in the first step of reproduction fusion of
sperm and ovum takes place , which you
already know , is called fertilization .
During the fertilization the nuclei of the
sperm and ovum fuse to form a single
nucleus . This results in the formation of
a fertilized egg or zygote
Sperm ovum zygote
For the internal fertilization to take place
inside , it is necessary for the sperm to reach
inside the body of the female . Animals in
which fertilization is internal have some
arrangements for ensuring that the sperm
enters the body of female . This type of
fertilization occurs in different organisms like
insects , snakes , lizards , birds and mammals
etc
we know that it is necessary for the sperm
and the ovum to come together for
fertilization . In some animals
fertilization takes place inside the body of
the female . While in others it takes place
out side the body . The process of
fertilization that occurs out side an
organisms body is called external
fertilization .
Fertilization results in the formation of a
zygote . This zygote divides repeatedly to
give rise to a ball of cells . The cells then
begin to form groups that develop into
different tissues and the organs in the
body . This developing structure is
termed as an embryo . The embryo gets
embedded in the wall of the uterus for the
development .
The embryo continues to develop in the
uterus . It gradually develops body parts
such as hands , legs , head , eyes and ears
etc . when the embryo develops fully and
all the other parts are distinct , it is called
a foetus . The period from the zygote to
fully developed foetus is called pregnancy
period . Usually , after completion of this
period a baby is born . This is called
gestation period .
we might have heard that in some moments
oviducts are blocked . These women are
unable to bear babies because sperms cannot
reach the eggs for fertilization . In such cases
, doctors collect freshly released egg and
sperms and keep them together for IVF . In
cases of fertilization , the zygote allowed to
develop for about a week and then it is
placed in the mothers uterus complete
development takes place in the uterus and the
baby is born like any other baby is called test
tube baby.
The young ones of some animals resemble
their parents and some do not , when they
emerge from eggs . Some animals undergo a
process called metamorphosis ( meta –
beyond , morphe- form ) ,thus transformation
of shape of the body occurs during
development over a period of time and only
thy begin to resemble their parents . We find
some fish like forms swimming in a pond.
These are called tadpoles .
Eggs of frog
copulation
Cloning is the production of an exact copy
of a cell , any other living part or a
complete organism . Cloning of an
animal was successfully performed for
the first time by Ian Wilmut and his
colleagues at the roslin institute in
Edinburgh , Scotland . They successfully
cloned a sheep named dolly .
Dolly was born on fifth July 1996 and was the
first mammal to be cloned . During the process
of cloning dolly , a cell was collected from the
mammary gland of a female Finn Dorset sheep
. Simultaneously , an egg was obtained from
scottish blackface ewe . The nucleus was
removed from the egg . Then , the nucleus of
the mammary gland cell from the Finn Dorset
sheep was inserted into the egg of the Scottish
blackface ewe whose nucleus had been
removed .
The egg thus produced was implanted into the
Scottish blackface ewe . Development of this
egg followed normally and finally dolly was
born . Though dolly was given birth by the
Scottish blackface ewe , it was found to be
absolutely identical to the Finn Dorset sheep
from which the nucleus was taken . Since the
nucleus from the egg of the Scottish blackface
ewe was removed , dolly did not show any
character of the Scottish blackface ewe.
Dolly was a healthy clone of the Finn
Dorset sheep and produced several off
springs of her own through normal sexual
means . Unfortunately , dolly died on 14th
February 2003 due to lung disease . After
claims of dolly , several attempts were
made to produce cloned mammals .
However , many died before the birth or
die soon after the birth . The cloned
animals are many –a-time found to be
born with several abnormalities.
