How do birds reproduce ? do they reproduce sexually or asexually? what is the process .and how it is different from reproduction in humans.
Dear Student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query:
- Bird reproduction is by sexual reproduction. Many birds have courtship rituals.
- Bird reproduction starts the same way as in mammals by the association of an egg or ovum with a sperm cell in the oviduct.
- The syngamy occurs inside the body of the birds, hence the process is called internal fertilisation.
- In some birds like turkey, the female gamete undergoes development to form new organisms without fertilisation. This phenomenon is called parthenogenesis.
Kindly post separate queries in separate threads.
