The data in the table below indicate the presence of specific reproductive hormones in blood samples

taken from three individuals. An X in the hormone column indicates a positive lab test for the

appropriate levels necessary for normal reproductive functioning in that individual.

 

Which processes could occur in individual 3?

A. Production of eggs and embryonic development 

B. Production of sperm only 

C. Production of sperm and production of eggs 

D. Production of eggs only

5. Human Hormones and Reproduction

5a. Identify and explain each of the hormones associated with human male

gamete production. In your answer, include where each is produced, the target

cells for those hormones, the function of those hormones, and the impact of those

hormones.

5b. Describe the “anatomy” of a human sperm and a human egg. As a part of

your answer, explain what each gamete contributes when making an embryo, and

how their respective forms and development dictate their relative functions.

5c. How is maleness determined in humans? Explain the genetic, cellular, and

physiological things that dictate maleness with regards to the development of

anatomical structures. Be specific.

 Why do island chains provide ideal conditions for adaptive radiation to occur?

A trait in a hummingbird population is the presence or absence of a white spot on the belly of the hummingbirds, which is controlled by a single gene with two alleles such that WW individuals have a spot, NN individuals do not have a spot, and W is dominant to N so WN individuals have a spot and look just like WW individuals for this trait. Presence or absence of the white spot has no impact on survival or reproduction; individuals mate at random with regard to whether or not there is a spot. 3/4 of the individuals in the population have a white spot. What is the frequency of the N allele?
