Document Summary

Rudolf virchow proposed that new cells arise by splitting preexisting cells, this is cell division. Microscopic observations of new developing organisms (embryos) confirmed his hypothesis. Multicellular eukaryotes start life as a single-celled embryo and grow through a series of cell divisions. In animals, cell division leads to two fundamentally different ways that nuclei divide; meiosis and mitosis. Meiosis leads to the production of sperm and eggs which are male and female reproductive cells called gametes. Mitosis leads to the production of all other cell types, referred to as somatic cells. Mitosis and meiosis are usually accompanied by cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm into two distinct cells. When cytokinesis is complete, a so-called parent cell has given rise to two daughter cells. Mitotic and meiotic cell divisions are responsible for reproduction. During mitosis, the genetic material is copied and then divided equally between two cells, this is cellular replication. The daughter cells are genetically identical to the original parent cell.
