Document Summary

One cell growing in size and dividing to produce two new cells. Functions for: growth and development, repair and reproduction. Reproduction = single or multiple celled organisms producing a new generation. 2 types: asexual: production of offspring by a single parent, no sexes or genders, sexual: production of offspring by two or more parents resulting in genetic recombination. In prokaryotes: no nucleus! divided between two new cells. Use process called binary fission, dna replicated and: nuclear division: division of nuclear contents, cytoplasmic division: division of the cytoplasm. Nuclear division (only eukaryotes) can take one of two forms. One parent cell gives rise to two daughter cells. Each daughter cell exactly identical genetically to parent. Ex. protistans, fungi, plants and animals or. One purpose only, and that is sexual reproduction. One parent cell will give rise to four daughter cells. Each daughter cell is nonidentical genetically to parent or each other.
