All cells have a plasma membrane‚ nucleus and cytoplasm. 4. Protoplasm consists of a plasma membrane and nucleus. 5. The nucleus consists of chromosomes and a nucleolus. 6. Organelles that are found in the cytoplasm of a cell include the nucleus‚ vacuole‚ endoplasmic reticulum‚ mitochondria and Golgi apparatus.

Chapter 8 Vocabulary- Marisa Brueggemann anaphase- Anaphase is the stage of a cell division (mitosis or meiosis) when the chromatids (or homologous chromosomes in meiosis one) are separated and start to move away from each other. anchorage dependence- In order for a cell to resume its divisions it must be touching something else. asexual reproduction- New cells are generated through the process of mitosis (or binary fusion in the case of bacteria). These new daughter are exactly the same as

ASEXUAL REPRODUCTION Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction by which offspring arise from a single parent‚ and inherit the genes of that parent only; it is reproduction which does not involve meiosis‚ ploidy reduction‚ or fertilization. The offspring will be exact genetic copies of the parent. A more stringent definition is agamogenesis which is reproduction without the fusion of gametes. Asexual reproduction is the primary form of reproduction for single-celled organisms such as the archaea

Meiosis - Functions Halving the chromosome number - meiosis consists of two nuclear divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II) but the chromosomes replicate once. Producing four daughter cells. Each are haploid Producing Genetic Variety - through prophase I and through random assortment during metaphase I. In

How did the info in my DNA become my traits? This is a question that has been asked by many over the course of history.To answer this question we need to answer three essential questions‚ the first‚ how did we get our DNA‚ how did we go form one cell to trillions‚ and how did DNA become our traits. There is one essential driver to all of this‚ DNA‚ to understand DNA‚ we need to know what DNA is. DNA is two strands that contain genetic information in four bases‚ adenine‚ guanine‚ cytosine and thymine

Main article: Evolution of sexual reproduction It is considered that sexual reproduction in eukaryotes first appeared about a billion years ago and evolved within ancestral single-celled eukaryotes.[2] The reason for the initial evolution of sex‚ and the reason(s) it has survived to the present‚ are still matters of debate. Some of the many plausible theories include: that sex creates variation among offspring‚ sex helps in the spread of advantageous traits‚ that sex helps in the removal of disadvantageous

of dominance and how this plays a role in monohybrid crosses (mono = one = one characteristic or trait). Be aware of confusing the word ‘cross/ crossing’ with ‘crossing over’ in Meiosis. You cross individuals and calculate the chances of a characteristic or trait being in the offspring. “Crossing over’ takes place in Meiosis during prophase where pieces of chromosomes cross over from the male chromosomes to the female chromosomes to ensure a mix of the characteristics in the offspring. You must be
