Task 1: Blastocoele
Task 1: Blastocoele
No. : 02
Kelas : 8H
Task 1
1. What is a fertilization ?
Fertilization is the process by which the nucleus of a sperm (a male
reproductive cell) fuses (combines) with the nucleus of an egg (a
female reproductive cell; also called an ovum).
2. Determine the specific characteristic of each stage of embryo (zygote-
morulla-blastula-gastrula-fetus)
- Zygote : The zygote has forty-six chromosomes in its nucleus,
consisting of the union of 23 egg chromosomes and 23
spermatozoid chromosomes.
- Morulla : the group of cell, which is about 16 to 32 cells, forms a
ball-like structure.
- Blastula : The formation of a segmentation cavity or blastocoele
within a mass of cleaving blastomeres and rearrangement of
blastomeres around this cavity in such a way as to form the type of
definitive blastula characteristic of each species. The blastocoele
originates as an intercellular space which sometimes arises as early
as the four- or eight-cell stage. The wall of the blastula is a mosaic
of cellular areas, each of which will normally produce a certain
structure during subsequent development. In other words, each
area of cells in the wall of the blastula has a certain prospective fate
which will be realized in normal development.
Task 2
1. After the birth of human development covering : toddler-children-
adolescent-adult-old age
Determine the specific characteristic of each stage !
- Toddler : can walk, without any help, can climb stairs, and
understand at least six word.
- Children : can grab pencil, doodle, imitate simple shape, and speak
in simple sentences.
- Adolescent :
Girls : the development of hips and breasts, the appearance of
pubic hair and the development of reproductive organs.
Boys : the chest looks wider, facial hair and pubic hair appears, and
the voice also changes.
- Adult : the growth of bones and muscles begins to stop so adults
cannot grow taller.
- Old age : weaker bones, generating ability to breathe, generating
elasticity of veins, and also causes skin to wrinkle.
Task 3
Describe the secondary sex characteristics in male and female !
The Male: On the average, taller and heavier than the female.
1. Head hair: may fall out with age. 2. Facial hair: grows throughout
adult life.3, Features: more pronounced, face longer, head (front to
back) longer. 4. Neck: thicker, longer, larynx one-third larger. 5.
Shoulders: broader, squarer. 6. Chest: larger in every dimension. 7.
Body hair: more evident, especially on chest and arms. 8. Breasts:
rudimentary in size. 9. Muscles: bigger, more obvious. 10. Arms:
longer, thicker, "carrying angle" straight. 11. Pubic hair: growing up to
a point, forming triangle. 12. Hips: narrower. 13. Hands and feet:
larger, fingers and toes stronger and blunter. 14. Thighs: more
cylindrical with bulge of muscles. 15. Legs: longer, bulging calves. 16.
Angle of thigh and leg; as with "carrying angle" of arm, forming
straight line, thigh to ankle.
The Female: On the average, shorter and lighter than the male.
1. Head hair: more lasting. 2. Facial hair: very faint, usually noticeable
only in later years, 3. Features: more delicate, face rounder, head
smaller, rounder (from top). 4. Neck: shorter, more rounded, larynx
smaller. 5. Shoulders: more rounded, sloping. 6. Chest: smaller,
narrower. 7. Body Hair: very light and faint. 8. Breasts: prominent, also
well-developed nipples with large surrounding rings, 9. Muscles: largely
hidden under layers of fat. 10. Arms: "carrying angle" bent. 11. Pubic
hair: forming straight line across at top. 12. Hips: wider, more rounded.
13. Hands and feet: smaller and narrower. 14. Thighs: wider at top and
shorter in length, 15. Legs: shorter with smoother contours. 16. Angle
of thigh and leg; as with "carrying angle" of arm, slightly bent, forming
an ang!e at the knee.
