1. Date: March 20th, 2017- Happy Spring!!
Aim # 60: How have organisms benefited from reproductive technologies?
HW:
Daily Review of class notes.
Test Corrections due Tuesday (Must get signed!!)
Castle Learning due Thursday
Test on Human Reproduction Friday
Do Now:
Where does the embryo implant and develop in the female reproductive system?
What does a developing embryo need? What waste products are produced?
What is the function of the placenta? What is the function of the umbilical cord?
What trimester is the most dangerous? Why?

2. Aim #60: How have organisms benefited from reproductive technology?

3. 1) What is Reproductive Technology?
1) Methods that assist organisms to produce offspring.
Methods that aid in the examination of developing
offspring.

4. 2) Why might some people need reproductive technologies?
Some people cannot become
pregnant because of problems
with their hormones, ovaries,
Testes, or other parts of their
reproductive systems.
Infertility – cannot produce
offspring.

5. 3) Applications of Reproductive Technology:
Medical Applications:
In-Vitro Fertilization
Artificial Insemination
Cloning??
Amniocentesis & Karyotyping

6. a) In-Vitro Fertilization
Sperm fertilizes egg in a test tube
The embryo is then Implanted into a mother’s uterus.

7. b) Artificial Insemination
Inserting sperm inside females fallopian tube

8. How do we store sperm, eggs & embryos for in-vitro fertilization?
Frozen in a bank

9. c) Cloning
Take nucleus from individual who will be cloned & insert it into an anucleated egg
Why Clone?

10. d) Amniocentesis & Karyotyping
Amniotic fluid is withdrawn from a woman's uterus to test for certain problems in the fetus, such as genetic defects.

11. 4) Sonograms - Ultrasound
Use of sound and echo to create an image of the developing embryo

12. Applications of Reproductive Technology:
Agriculture:
Scientists have genetically modified plants using DNA
Recombinant Technology to be resistant to disease. These
modified plants can then be cloned to produce thousands
of genetically identical offspring.
Using artificial insemination, scientists can generate
hundreds of offspring from one farm animal.
3) Selective Breeding

13. To obtain organisms with desired traits
Selective Breeding
To obtain organisms with desired traits
Meaty cow
Milk producing cow

14. Applications of Reproductive Technology:
Ecology:
Embryos from endangered species have been transplanted into related species, who later give birth to offspring that are no different than they would be if they developed in the bodies of the endangered species themselves.

15. Summary What is reproductive technology? What is infertility?
What is in-vitro fertilization?
What is artificial insemination?
Why would someone get an amniocentesis?
How do we produce an image of the developing fetus?
What is selective breeding? What is the example that we spoke about in class today?
