Asexual Reproduction
Sexual Reproduction
DNA
100
Process of the division of a cell that creates 2 identical daughter cells
Mitosis
100
Process of cell division that creates 4 haploid daughter cells or gametes, with 1 copy of each chromosome
Meiosis
100
Type of reproduction that creates offspring from a single parent that is identical to the parent
Asexual reproduction
100
Type of reproduction when there is a fusion of two gametes that result in offspring that are a genetic mixture of both parents
