What is meant by the "animal part" in a frog egg?
The animal part is the less heavy part (topmost ) of an egg and contains mostlycytoplasm and the nucleus. This half of the egg contains the most pigment and thus has a darker colour. -
What is meant with the "vegetal part" of an egg?
The vegetal part is located at the bottom of the egg, it is heavy and contains the yolk granula. -
What is the egg axis?
The egg axis is an axis that runs from the animal pole to the vegetal pole of the egg. -
What is the animal pole of an egg?
Recognisable by the pigment, but also a polar body that may be found there. (cytoplasm and nuclear material) -
What important chages in the egg cell are caused by fertilisation?
- Completion of meisosis
- Fusion of paternal and maternal genomes
- Changes to the egg cell membrane (becomes imprenetrable for sperm cells)
- Increse of calcium concentration in the cytosol, leading to activation of the egg cell
- Following activation, rotation of the cell cortex occurs, resulting in development of the grey crescent.
- Completion of meisosis
-
What happens to the outer layer of the egg cortex after being penetrated by a sperm cell?
The outer layer shifts 20 degrees in relation t the inner layer. This creates a lighter spot opposite of the penetration point in the egg cortex, this is called the grey crescent. -
Where does the sperm cell penetrate the egg cortex in relation to the animal pole?
The sperm cel penetrates the egg at a distance of 30 degrees form the animal pole -
How is the first cleavage of an embryo formed?
The plane through the animal pole and the penetration point divides the grey descent in two halves. This is the symmetry plane of the future emryo and the plane for the first cleavage. -
Where is the plane of the second cleavage and what does it contain?
The plane of the second cleavage contains the animal-vegetal axis and is pendicular on the first cleavage. -
What are the two cells that are created by the meridional cleavages that do contain the grey crescent called?
Dorsal cells

For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
