The fascinating process of sexual reproduction
begins with 1 egg and 1 sperm
What are germ cells?
References

1. Germ cells become…?
2. Early in embryo development
primordial germ cells are set aside
from the embryo
3. Then they migrate back into the
embryo & settle into the genital
ridge (early gonad)
(Langman’s Medical Embryology, 2007)
4. They proliferate & give rise to
millions of early gametes
migrating
germ cells
(Castrillon et al. PNAS, 2000)

1. The male gamete  sperm
2. The female gamete  egg (oocyte)
3. Fertilization  fusion of sperm & egg
A sperm cell attempts to penetrate
the ovum’s coat in order to fertilize it
4. The beginning of a new individual!

1. Gametogenesis  formation of eggs & sperm
• Oocytes & spermatocytes (23 chromosomes)
• Chromosomes in gametes are reduced by half
• The story of sperm
• The story of eggs
2. Fertilization
• One sperm + one egg = chromosome number
restored
• The genes from each are required for development
3. Embryogenesis  Formation of the embryo
4. Zygote  the earliest form of a human embryo (1
cell)

1. Terminally differentiated cell
2. Highly specialized, with unique morphology &
physiology
3. Flagellum (tail), midpiece (packed with mitochondria
for power), and head (packed with DNA – to deliver its
genetic material)
4. Can live in female reproductive tract for 3–5 days or
longer…
Human sperm alive &
swimming after 30 hrs
at room temp!
5. Respond to chemical cues & signaling molecules within
the female reproductive tract
6. Average man can produce sperm his entire life
7. Takes ~75 days for mature sperm to develop
8. 4,000 sperm made per heartbeat!

1. Meiosis produces 4 sperm from 1 germ cell (spermatogonium).
2. 1st division is a reduction division (separates homologous
chromosomes that have been duplicated prior to meiosis; DNA content
reduced from 4n to 2n).
3. 2nd division is a mitosis without DNA replication, generating haploid
cells (= n chromosomes)  What does this mean?
4. Spermatogenesis occurs throughout an adult male’s life  How is this
possible?...

1. Oocytes develop within follicles in the ovary
2. Arrested in meiosis I until puberty or later
 some eggs can be arrested for 51 years+
3. Packed full of proteins & mRNA to sustain
early development
4. Females lose many oocytes/follicles over the
course of their lifetime, until they are
depleted at menopause
