Document Summary
What cell reproduction accomplishes result are genetically identical to each other and to the original parent cell: when a cell undergoes reproduction or cell division the two daughter cells that, before the parent cell splits into two, it duplicates its chromosomes the structures, then during the division process, one set of chromosomes is distributed to each that contain most of the cell"s dna daughter cell. In asexual reproduction there is one simple principle of inheritance: the lone parent and each of its offspring have identical genes: sexual reproduction = requires fertilization of an egg by sperm, the production of gametes egg and sperm involves special type of cell, a gamete only has half as many chromosomes as the parent cell that gave rise to it, two kinds of division are involved in the lives of sexually reproduction division called meiosis which occurs in reproductive organs organisms: meiosis for reproduction and mitosis for growth and maintenance.
