Document Summary

Asexual vs sexual reproduction: two ways to reproduce in the universe, asexual, same cloning, uses mitosis, many plants use this method. Strawberries, many trees - many microbes use this method as well. New microbe that attacks a specific genotype: bubonic plague or cholera. A change the environment that affects growth conditions: variation in the genome protects against loss of an entire species. Mitosis divides somatic cells: mitosis is the process of cell division that produces two genetically identical daughter cells from one original parental cell. It is precisely controlled to prevent either an excess or insufficient number of cells. Substages of m phase: m phase is divided into, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, m phase accomplishes karyokinesis and cytokinesis, karyokinesis - partitioning of dna into daughter cell nuclei, cytokinesis - partitioning of the cytoplasm. Sister chromatids separate at anaphase and begin to move toward opposite poles in the cell.
