Summary Introduction

To determine:

The part of the female reproductive system where fertilization occurs.

Introduction:

The male discharge the semen in the vagina of the females. The semen travel in the reproductive tract of the females and reaches the fallopian tube, where it fuses with the ova and forms a zygote.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The ova from the ovary is passed down to the fallopian tube, which is also known as the uterine tube. In the fallopian tube, the ova receives the sperm, which is present in the semen. The semen is released into the vagina from the male partner, and travels in this tube.

Here, in the fallopian tube one of the sperm enters into the ova and the nucleus of the sperm fuses with the nucleus of the ova. The fusion of the sperm and the ova is termed as the fertilization. After the fertilization, the formation of the zygote, which divide mitotically and passed down towards the uterus for the implantation.

Conclusion

The fertilization occurs in the fallopian tube of the female body.

Linkage in common bean Alleles at the P locus control seed color. Plants which are pp have white seeds, white flowers and no pigment in vegetative parts. Plants which are P_ have black seeds, purple flowers and may have varying degrees of pigment on stems and leaves. Seed color can be assessed, visually, based on if the seed is white or not white A gene for mold resistance has been reported and we want to determine its inheritance and whether it is linked to P. For the purposes of this exercise, we will assume that resistance is controlled by a single locus M, and M_ plants are resistant and mm plants are susceptible.  Resistance can be measured, under greenhouse conditions, 2 weeks after planting, by injecting each seedling with a spore suspension. After two weeks, the seedlings can be rated as resistant or susceptible, based on whether or not tissue is actively sporulating. For this exercise we will use seed and data from the F10 generation of a recombinant inbred population…
