What form of cell division creates the sperm?
Meiosis
What is sperm designed to do?
provide DNA to an egg to form an offspring
What is formed when an egg cell and sperm cell meet?
When egg and sperm cells meet, a complete set of chromosomes is contained and the combined cell becomes known as a zygote.
When pigs reproduce which two types of cell pass information from the pigs to their piglets?
During pig reproduction, the mother passes two types of cells along. Genetic information from the mitochondria and the nucleus are passed to the piglets.
What is the name of the male sex cell in a rabbit?
A Sperm Cell as in most mammals like humans.
What cell form when an egg and sperm?
This cell is called a zygote.
What is a male sex cell?
A male sex cell is a spermatozoa, or sperm cell. Sperm are produced in the testes, or testicles, and mixed with nutrients to form semen.
Is sperm a somatic cell?
No. Every cell is a somatic cell except for the reproductive cells (the egg and sperm). They are gametes.
When does life begin after birth or during union of the egg cell and sperm cell?
Life begins when the egg cell and sperm cell unite to form the zygote.
Why is a zygote form?
A zygote is the single cell that forms when a sperm fertilizes the egg. A zygote forms because a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell.
What type of cell is sperm?
The Human sperm cell is called a haploid so its 23 chromosomes can join up with 23 of the female's to form a diploid cell. A motile sperm cell is called spermatozoon while a non motile sperm cell is refered to as spermatium.
Why are sperm and eggs beneficial to organisms?
In sexual reproduction, a sperm and egg cell unite to form the first cell of the new offspring.
What happens when a sperms cell and an egg all unite?
When a sperm cell and an egg cell unite they form a zygote which now has the DNA it needs to divide and form a new individual. The sperm cell and the egg cell have one half the amount of DNA necessary to form a new individual.
Where does egg cell and sperm cell unit to form a zygote?
I don't know really.
During spermatogenesis a cell with 2n chromosomes divides to form four sperm cells. How many chromosomes are in each sperm cell?
8n
What form of cell division creates the sperm?
Meiosis
What kind of cells is formed when chromosomes form a sperm cell an egg cell combined?
a diploid
