The synthesis of new sperm cells occurs in the epididymis. Sperms are made by germ cells in the seminiferous tubes in the testicles.
In the testes by germ cells.
Fertilization
IT takes about 2 hours for a healthy sperm to reach the fallopian tube of the uterus.
the formation of sex cells GAMETES: sperm or egg cells Gamete formation: gametogenesis Sperm formation: spermatogenesis Egg formation: oogenesis
The cell will have double the number of chromosomes.
No, just in sex cells. ie, eggs and sperm cells
during meiosis (i believe), its not transcription i know that much
Cell plate!!
The male's sperm cell combines with the female egg or ovum; fertilizes it and is the start of embryo formation.
no
In the epididymis.
zygot, fetus formation
Zero. The zygote is the first cell formed by the fertilization of an egg by a sperm cell. It doesn't divide during it's formation, but it does divide afterwards.
Fertilization
Mutations that occur during gametogenesis (formation of egg and sperm) are called germ-line mutations. They are more significant than somatic mutations (which occur in body cells) because they can be transmitted to the next generation whereas somatic mutations are not transmitted to the next generation.
Usually in the womb, but fertilisation can occur in the fallopian tubes, which can lead to complications as the foetus grows.
IT takes about 2 hours for a healthy sperm to reach the fallopian tube of the uterus.
They occur during cell division and at the time when the sperm fertilizes the egg.
