Answer:
definition of gemmules
a tough-coated dormant cluster of embryonic cells produced by a freshwater sponge for development in more favourable conditions.
hope it helps you..
Answer:
Gemmules are internal buds found in sponges and are involved in asexual reproduction. It is an asexually reproduced mass of cells, that is capable of developing into a new organism i.e., an adult sponge
A meiocyte is a type of cell that differentiates into a gamete through the process of meiosis. Through meiosis, the diploid meiocyte divides into four genetically different haploid gametes. The control of the meiocyte through the meiotic cell cycle varies between different groups of organisms
Parthenogenesis is a form of reproduction in which an egg can develop into an embryo without being fertilized by a sperm. Parthenogenesis is derived from the Greek words for “virgin birth,” and several insect species including aphids, bees, and ants are known to reproduce by parthenogenesis.
Syngamy?
: sexual reproduction by union of gametes : fertilization.
pericarp
the part of a fruit formed from the wall of the ripened ovary.
