what will the effect of membrane removal have on bull sperm?
1. What is "sperm competition"? What is its significance? 2. Describe what "sperm removal" is, and give one specific example of an insect or arachnid species in which sperm removal occurs. 3. How can sperm quantity, morphology, and other characteristics influence male reproductive success in insects? 4. Define and describe: "cryptic female choice" 5. Déscribe the selective influence of cryptic female choice on the evolution of male genitalia insects. Provide examples as needed. 6. What is "postcopulatory selection?" Provide an...

How is Moss sperm like Fern sperm in terms of fertilization? What is the structure in Moss that produces sperm? Is it found in the (n) or (2n) generation? What is the name of this structure? What is the structure in Ferns that produces sperm? Is it found in the (n) or (2n) generation? What is the name of this structure (has two names)?
Jes is planning to get pregnant using sperm from a sperm bank. The sperm bank does genetic carrier testing on all donors as a policy. Her [anonymous] donor is a carrier for Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD). MSUD is a severe recessive metabolic disorder, with a general population carrier frequency of 1/80. A. What is the chance that Jes is a carrier for MSUD? B. Assuming that she is not a carrier, what is the chance that her baby will...
Depletion of cholesterol in the cell membrane using a drug (mevastatin) has been associated with apoptosis in cancer cells. a. What effect would cholesterol depletion have on the integrity of lipid rafts in the membrane? b. Researchers found that FAS death receptor was activated in cholesterol depleted cancer cells. Explain how activation of this receptor activates killer caspases. c. When a caspase is converted from its inactive to its active form there are changes in the primary and tertiary structure...
2. You have isolated a protein from sperm that you suspect is involved in binding to the zona pellucida and triggering the acrosome reaction. You generate an antibody to this protein and use the antibody to isolate the protein. You have obtained peptide information and used this peptide data to identify the DNA sequence that encodes your protein of interest. a. What zona protein do you suspect this sperm protein binds to? b. What expression pattern is consistent with your...
What if plants had triple fertilization and two sperm fertilized two eggs while the other sperm fertilized the polar nuclei? Would this be a super plant or would this plant be at a disadvantage? Explain.
1.) Sperm from the head of the epididymis can fertilize ova by themselves, while sperm from the tail of the epididymis cannot. a. True b. False 2.) Functional sperm cells have, among other features, an acrosome containing enzymes like hyaluronidase, which breaks down the outer coat of the unfertilized ovum to penetrate it's membrane. a. True b. False 3.) Identify the FALSE statement describing cervical mucus: a. Spinnbarkeit is the thick mass which forms to block movement of sperm b....
