Need help with this for my grandson.
Answers
1. PUBERTY (or initiation of adolescence) is caused due to increase in blood levels of androgens (in males) and ovarian/pituitary hormones like oestrogen/progesterone (in females).
Purpose of PUBERTY: Puberty is necessary for proper development of secondary sexual characters as well as proper development of the gonads. Puberty in simple terms refers to attainment of sexual maturity.
2. Meiosis > Sex cells > Fertilisation > Zygote > Mitosis.
Reason for choosing such an order:
- Meiosis is a type of cell division which produces haploid sex cells (like sperms and ova).
- The sex cells undergo fertilization and produce the diploid zygote.
- Now, The zygote undergoes mitosis to produce specific tissues and organs.
Hope It Helps.
