Document Summary

7. 1 different life cycles use different modes of cell reproduction. Cell division - a process by which a parent cell duplicates its genetic material and then divides into two smaller cells: plays important roles in the growth and repair of tissues. In multicellular organisms, and the reproduction of all organisms. Organisms have two basic strategies for reproducing themselves: Mutations (alterations in dna sequence caused by environmental factors or error in. Dna replication) can occur small variation compared to sexual reproduction. Involves fusion of 2 cells called g ametes. In many diploid organisms, the gametes form by meiosis (process of cell division) resulting in daughter cells with only half the genetic material of the original cell. Single-celled prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission meiosis increases genetic diversity, which is good for. Single-celled eukaryotes reproduce asexually through mitosis followed by cytokinesis natural selection and evolution.
