WHAT IF? Why did the researchers split each female frog’s eggs into twobatches for fertilization by different males? Why didn’t they mate each femalewith a single male frog?
Let's Check
Activity 9. Let us try to check your understanding of the discussion. Read the questions
carefully. Encircle the letter that corresponds to the correct answer.
1. Which of the following pairs share 50% of their genes?
Any two siblings
A pair of dyzogotic twins
A pair of monozygotic twins
a and b
2. Regarding types of multiple pregnancy, which of the following are true?
a. Dizygotic twins result from fertilization of different oocytes by the same sperm.
b. Monozygotic twins result from mitotic division of a single zygote into 'identical' twins.
c. Dizygotic twins result from the division of a single fertilized egg.
d. Monozygotic twins result from 2 egg cells merged together, eventually fertilized by a sperm
cell.
3. Fraternal twins make up approximately.
of the twin population.

- 7. Maternal effect: In Limnaea snail cats, R makes right coiled shells; r makes left coiled shells, and R is dominant to r, as we discussed in class. Even though these can be hermaphrodites, and act either as mom or dad, we'll just pretend they are male or female.

Why does this statistic seem so low? All of the following statements provide a reason as to why the chance of fertilization is 18% every ovarian cycle EXEPT Select one: A. Some Sperm cells are not very motile, while others are formed without a tail. B. If more than one sperm fertilizes an egg, multiple embryos can result. C. Vagina is very acidic, killing many sperm. D. There two fallopian tubes and two ovaries, but only one of them releases an ovum every cycle.arrow_forward
