1 REPRODUCTION AND CONTINUITY OF LIFE

2 Reproduction Cell division MitosisMeiosis requires

3 Mitosis asexual reproduction production of genetically identical offspring from one parent Gives rise to genetically identical cells in which the chromosome number is maintained Growth, repair of damaged tissues, replacement of worn out cells and asexual reproduction

4 Meiosis Reduction division chromosome number is halved from diploid to haploid Diploid 46 chromosomes Haploid 23 chromosomes Results in Gametes. Sexual reproduction Haploid nuclei to form a diploid zygote(embryo/new born cell) Genetically dissimilar offspring

MEIOSIS  In sexually reproducing organisms, gametes (sex cells) are produced by a special type of cell division called meiosis.  Meiosis results in gametes.

MEIOSIS  In sexually reproducing organisms, gametes (sex cells) are produced by a special type of cell division called meiosis.  Meiosis results in gametes.

Mitosis/Meiosis How do your cells divide?. A few words before we start….. Haploid:n one set of chromosomes Diploid: 2n two sets of chromosomes.

Sexual and Asexual reproduction. A type of reproduction that involves only one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.

Cellular Reproduction

Cellular Reproduction
1 Reproduction. 2 Production of new individuals is a fundamental characteristic of a living species. Genetic information is passed on from parental generation.
