Sci 9 Bio Unit Big Idea: Cells are derived from cells
- Mitosis is the process through which pre-existing cells make two identical copies of themselves
- Different forms of asexual reproduction include: fission, budding, cloning, spores, and grafting
- Meiosis is the process through which sex cells (eggs and sperm) are formed by the dividing of a parent cell twice, resulting in four haploid daughter cells (gametes).
​- There are advantages and disadvantages for both sexual vs asexual reproduction
- Human sexual reproduction results in offspring that are not genetically identical
