Interphase
100
This is the type of cell division that reduces chromosome number by half to form haploid gametes.
Meiosis
100
DNA replication is described as 'semi-conservative' because each new DNA molecule contains this.

Schleiden and Schwann concluded in the 1830s that all plants and animals are made of cells, contributing to this part of the cell theory.
All living things are made of cells.
200
These organelles are present in plant cells for photosynthesis but absent in animal cells.
Chloroplast
