Solution
i. Oviduct: The oviduct, also known as the fallopian tube, plays a crucial role in the reproductive system of females. Its primary function is to transport the egg from the ovary to the uterus. Fertilization usually occurs in the oviduct, where the sperm meets the egg.
ii. Umbilical Cord: The umbilical cord is a tube-like structure that connects the fetus to the mother in the womb. It serves as the lifeline between the mother and the baby, supplying the fetus with nutrients and oxygen from the mother's bloodstream. It also carries waste products away from the fetus back to the mother's body for disposal.
Q.3 An example of an oviparous animal showing internal fertilization is the shark. In some species of sharks, the male fertilizes the female's eggs internally, and the female then lays the fertilized eggs, which later hatch into young sharks.
Q.4 In the given flowchart, A represents the stage of 'Embryo' and B represents the stage of 'Fetus'. The zygote develops into an embryo, which then develops into a fetus before becoming a human baby.
Q.5 i. False. Budding is a mode of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud on the parent organism. The new organism remains attached to the parent organism until it matures. ii. True. Seminal vesicles are indeed paired glands attached to the vas deferens. They produce a significant portion of the fluid that ultimately becomes semen. iii. False. The ovum is larger in size compared to a sperm. iv. True. Babies which develop by IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) are often referred to as 'test tube babies'.
