Parthenogenesis. The wikipedia site associated with answers has a good page on this phenomenon as well as on similar reproductive processes that result in offspring with the DNA of only the female parent but still require mating.

Why is the growth of the embryo different from the growth of the fetus?
Once the zygote becomes an embryo it starts developing all of its organs, nervous system etc. then after 8 weeks of development everything is there so it becomes a fetus, and the fetus just grows bigger.
A kernel of corn contains an embryo plant that is capable of becoming a complex plant with roots stalks leaves and ears of corn This potential reflects which property of life?
growth and development
What occurs between pollination and fertilization?
germination and growth of the pollen until it reaches the overy at which point fertilization occers. it is also the phase in which self incompatability plays its role
What is the difference between growth and development?
in growth the organism gets larger, in development the organism gets more complex
Where is myoblast present?
They're in embryo, before developing into muscle cells in growth. (called myocytes)
What develops into the fetus?
A Foetus is formed by the growth and development of an embryo.
What are the satges of growth and development?
the stages of growth are: gametogenesis fertilization cleavage or segmentation blastulation gastrulation organogenesis
Which of these shows the correct sequence of development of sexually reproducing animals?
fertilization, cleavage, differentiation,growth
Why do chicks and eggs have to be kept so warm and humid?
Temperature and humidity are natures triggers for embryo development. The optimum temperature for growth of the embryo is 100.5 F with a humidity of 60%. Embryo growth will start at lower temperatures however it will be slower and viability of the chick over a longer development within the egg is greatly reduced.
Is the development of all animals dependent on their parents?
Yes; the mother gives nutrients to the embryo that are essential for its growth.
What are the six stages of animal development?
Gametogenesis Fertilization Cleavage Gastrulation Organogenesis and the Later Stages (Growth)
What is the difference between embryo and seeds?
A seed is a small embryonic plant enclosed in a covering called the seed coat, usually with some stored food . It is the product of the ripened ovule of gymnosperm and angiosperm plants which occurs after fertilization and some growth within the mother plant.An embryo is a multicellular diploid eukaryote in its earliest stage of development , from the time of first cell division until birth, hatching or germination . In humans, it is called an embryo until about eight weeks after fertilization (i.e. ten weeks after the last menstrual period or LMP), and from then it is instead called a fetus .
Do factors that can cause congenital malformations by affecting an embryo during its period of rapid growth and development are called teratogens?
true
Which sequence represents the correct order of events in the development of sexually reproducing animals?
fertilization-cleavage-differentiation-growth
How does the mother's choices she makes during pregnancy affect the growth and development of an embryo?
The embryo is obtains nutrients by drawing them from the mother's blood. Thus, whatever the mother takes in that alters chemical composition of her blood can potentially affect the embryo.
Could there be economic growth without economic development?
no economic growth cannot be possible without devlopment
What is the purpose of the endosperm?
The endosperm provides nutrients for the developing plant embryo. It primarily stores carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to support the growth and development of the embryo until it can photosynthesize and produce its own food.
