    The document discusses the development of embryos in different types of animals. It explains that fish and amphibians lay eggs in water that are fertilized externally, while land animals' eggs are fertilized internally. For mammals, fertilization occurs inside the female body and gestation provides nutrition to the growing embryo through the placenta until birth.

    LIFE SCIENCE 10-8 How do animal embryos develop?

    OBJ: Recognize how the development of mammals differ from that of other animals.

    I. Water Animals - most fish and amphibians lay their eggs in the water.
    EGG = female reproductive cell.
    - the animal deposits sperm on the eggs.
    SPERM = are male reproductive cells.
    FERTILIZATION = joining of a sperm cell nucleus and an egg cell
    nucleus.
    - eggs are fertilized outside the female’s body.
    - The embryo begins to develop inside the egg.
    - The embryo uses food stored in the egg.

    II. Land Animals - the eggs of reptiles, birds, and mammals are fertilized
    inside the body of the female.
    - In snakes and birds, the eggs develop a shell after
    fertilization and are then laid.
    - the embryo uses the food stared in the yolk.

    III. Embryo Development in - in all mammals, fertilization takes place inside the
    Mammals body of the female, or mother.
    - most mammals give birth to living young.
    GESTATION = time it takes the embryo to fully develop inside its
    mother’s body.
    - dog – 9 weeks
    - humans – 9 months
    - elephants – 22 months

    IV. Embryo Nutrition - comes from the mother through the placenta.
    - digested food and oxygen from the mother’s blood
    pass into the bloodstream of the embryo.
    - the embryo uses it for growth and development.
    - wastes from the embryo are passed to the mother
    through the blood.
    - the mother excretes it through her own waste.
