Hey there :)

The cost of reproduction differs between males and females because:

- The production of sperms is continuous within males. However, for females, the number of eggs produced is very limited, one egg per month. This means only limited number of offsprings. Overall, this makes the eggs more valuable than the sperms.

So from what i have understood, males have unlimited sperm and females have limited ovum. That's why, there is a different cost of reproduction for males and females.

Hope this helps !

What do we mean when we refer to a cell as differentiated?

Otrada [13]

Answer:

We mean that a cell changes to another type of cell.

Explanation:

Stem cells are a type of cell that has the potential to become a specialized cell, this change or differentiation, is possible thanks to the activation or deactivation of certain genes that promote (or inhibit) the expression of certain proteins that origins different types of cells (fmuscle cells, osteocytes, neurons). This differentiation happens when the cells receive cues internally ( through signals or contact between a group of cells and another or through transcription factors) or externally.

Then, a differentiated cell is a cell that had gone under the previously described process.

I hope this information is useful to you!
