Document Summary

Asexual reproduction one cell divides into two daughter cells with only their genetic material (only one parent) Sexual reproduction two parents pass on their genetic material to their offspring: half genetic material from each parent, gametes are specialized reproduction cells that allow sexual reproduction to occur. Prokaryotes use binary fission to divide: dna replicates, cell grows larger, parent cell divides into two daughter cells. Eukaryotes use both mitosis and cytokinesis to divide: mitosis divides the nucleus, cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm. Prokaryotes have a single, small, circular dna molecule while eukaryotes have larger genomes with multiple linear chromosomes. Two main phases of eukaryotic cell division: m phase division, interphase preparation for division. G1 phase activation of regulatory protein. G0 phase cells that are no longer actively dividing stay in this phase (resting phase) Mitosis is used for asexual reproduction in unicellular eukaryotes.
