______________________________________________________________________________
3. Where does meiosis occur in the male reproductive system? ___________________________
Order the steps in the formation and transportation of sperm from 1 to 6.
____________4. Mature sperm enter the vas deferens.
____________5. Newly formed haploid sperm cells pass through a series of coiled ducts to
the epididymis.
____________6. Sperm leave the body via the urethra.
____________7. Sperm mature in the epididymis.
____________8. Cells lining tubules in the testes undergo meiosis.
____________9. Sperm travel along the ejaculatory ducts and into the urethra.

Usually in the upper part of a(n) __________________________, an egg and one sperm unite
to form a(n) __________________________.This single cell divides through a process called
_________________________ (a form of _____________ without growth) repeatedly to form
a(n)______________________, which __________________________in the uterine wall. Part
of the blastocyst becomes the __________________________,which is surrounded by a fluidfilled, membranous sac called the __________________________. The embryo is connected to
the wall of the uterus by its __________________________.The amniotic sac is enclosed by the
__________________________, which also forms attachment structures called the
__________________________. Nutrients and oxygen from the mother and wastes from the
embryo are exchanged in the __________________________.
Mitosis
Number of cell divisions
Is DNA identical?
Used for making?
Makes diploid or haploid cells?
Crossing over occurs?
Sister chromatids are separated in which phase?
Increases genetic variety?
Homologous chromosomes pair up?
Meiosis
