Genetic Recombination

Recombination is crucial to this process because it allows genes to be reassorted into diverse combinations. Genetic recombination is the process of combining genetic components from two different origins into a single unit. In prokaryotes, genetic recombination takes place by the unilateral transfer of deoxyribonucleic acid. It includes transduction, transformation, and conjugation. The genetic exchange occurring between homologous deoxyribonucleic acid sequences (DNA) from two different sources is termed general recombination. For this to happen, an identical sequence of the two recombining molecules is required. The process of genetic exchange which occurs in eukaryotes during sexual reproduction such as meiosis is an example of this type of genetic recombination.

Microbial Genetics

Genes are the functional units of heredity. They transfer characteristic information from parents to the offspring.

All sexually-reproducing animals must have certain basic anatomical structures in order to reproduce sexually. Choose an animal, identify its sex (e.g. "female nematode") and answer the questions below: Briefly describe the organs your chosen animal has that fit the relevant categories • Give a brief description (three to four words) of the function of each listed organ.
Which of the following statements does NOT correctly describe a difference between the male and female reproductive systems? Select one: a. Testosterone has a major role in the development of secondary sexual characteristics in male reproductive systems, whereas LH promotes the development of secondary sexual characteristics in females. b. The male reproductive system mass produces large quantities of gametes each day, whereas the female reproductive system produces an average of a single gamete each month. c. The excretory and reproductive systems both use the urethra in males, whereas in females, there are separate tubes for the excretory and reproductive systems. d. The structures that produce gametes are exterior to the body in the male reproductive system, whereas the gametes are produced inside the body for females.

Although the most effective form of an oral contraceptive for woman contain estrogen and progestin, some birth control pills contain a small dose of progestin-only. This is because there are many risks and side effects. Which of the following statements is NOT a reason for using a progestin-only oral contraceptive? Select one: A. progesterone maintains the corpus luteum as corpus luteum release a large amount of progesterone and estrogen. B. progesterone suppresses the maturation of follicles, thereby preventing ovulation of a mature ovum. C. progestin-only oral contraceptives prevent the production of FSH and LH in the anterior pituitary. D. progesterone suppresses the production of GnRH in the hypothalamus.
Name two sets of structures that are homologous between the male and female reproductive systems.
Envision yourself as a physician whose patients sometimes ask about birth control. Provide a contraceptive method for each of the following patients, and explain why it would be appropriate: couple A, a man and woman who have intercourse regularly but never want to have children; couple B, a man and woman who have intercourse regularly and want to have children someday; and person C, a single woman who occasionally has intercourse with single men and does not wish to become pregnant. Be sure to include the level of protection against STDs that each person is likely to need.
Which of the following is true regarding the determinants of sexual development: the presence of the gene for HY antigen on the Y chromosome determines whether a testis develops from the gonadal ridge. the presence of MIS determines whether the Wolffian ducts develop. the presence of estrogen determines whether a vagina develops. the presence of DHT determines whether a prostate develops.
After learning about the reproductive systems, how would advise a couple with following concern: "If we do not want a baby for next two years, how can we calculate the safe sex period?" She shares that her cycle is regular but not standard 28 days long cycle (so the standard explanation form different sources won't work unless you think critically)! At what time of the female cycle is she most likely to prevent fertilization of her ovulated egg? Consider the fact that her cycle is not 28 days but longer or shorter (you pick). Do males have any time (in their cycle- if any) when their gametes would not be able to fertilize the egg? In other words when can intercourse lead to least chance of pregnancy? Feel free to check with your older friends, doctors, nurses, or anyone who you feel comfortable talking about this.
What defines our biological sex? What is the distinction between genetic and anatomical sexuality? Explain how chromosomes influence the internal and outward development of the sexual anatomy (hormones and structures). Is there always a correlation between genetic and anatomical sex? What is the reason, or why not? Describe a situation or disorder in which the internal and exterior sexual anatomy of a person do not match and explain how this would occur. Describe how a binary (male/female) model of sex does not reflect reality. What would a more accurate model look like?
