Chapter 13: Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles 1) Genes are the units of heredity‚ and are made up of segments of DNA. 2) In asexual reproduction‚ one parent produces genetically identical offspring my mitosis. In sexual reproduction‚ two parents give rise to offspring that have unique combinations of genes inherited from the two parents. 3) Humans have somatic cells‚ which are any cell other than a gamete‚ have 23 pairs of chromosomes.
