Reproduction Flashcards
Asexual reproduction where a cell splits into two, only in prokaryotes
Binary Fission
Meiosis
Cell division into 4, only occurs in multicellular organisms, only for the production of haploid cells
Metaphase 1 in Meiosis
Everything in mitosis except its pairs of chromosomes that move rather than individual chromosomes
Asexual reproduction where a new organism grows out of another organism
Budding
Example of Fragmentation
Sea stars, flatworms, sponges
Telophase
Each of the cell’s structures are reconstructed, and the cells split
Budding
Asexual reproduction where a new organism grows out of another organism
Cell division into 2, for diploid somatic cells, for multi cellular organisms
Mitosis
Biggest differences between mitosis and meiosis
Mitosis splits into 2 and meiosis splits into 4, also for mitosis its only 2 pairs of chromosomes while in meiosis for the first round its a pair of a pair of chromosomes
Anaphase 1 in Meiosis
Same as mitosis
Anaphase
Motor proteins pull apart the connected chromosomes using microtubules and they are dragged to the end of each cell
Examples of budding
Hydra
Motor proteins pull apart the connected chromosomes using microtubules and they are dragged to the end of each cell
Anaphase
Examples of binary fission
Amoeba, bacteria
Phases of Mitosis
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
