external fertilization

The only portion of a haplontic life cycle that is diploid is the .

fertilized egg

A life cycle in which meiosis occurs shortly after fertilization, and most of the life cycle is passed as a haploid.

haplontic

The basic kind of life cycle found in the simplest animals is .

haplontic

A mating pattern in which the male and female come close together and the male introduces the sperm into the body of the female where fertilization occurs.

internal fertilization

A haplontic cycle animal initially reproduces by:

isogamous fertilization

The idea that organisms reproduce from adult, to gametes, and back to adult again in a cycle or cyclical pattern.

life cycle

A zygote becomes a mature adult through the process of .

mitosis

For an animal living a diplontic cycle, meiosis is limited to:

producing gametes
