Asexual Reproduction

A
  • form of division where where a single offsrping is produced from single parent
  • occurs via cell division or mitosis
  • both genetically idnetical

budding

A
  • outgrowth of organism
  • hydra
  • when conditions are favourable, extention of organism growa
  • when large enough the outgrowths will fall and become idneitcall

Q

G1 phase

A
  • Cell grows to nearly twice in size
  • preparres for division
  • does regular cell activty
  • has a checkpoint right after mitosis

Q

G2 phase

A
  • happens near mitosis
  • anothe rgrowth phase
  • Organelles are also replicated
  • has a checkpint right after S (DNA replication)

Q

Division stages/ mitosis

A
  • mitsosi and cytokinsis make up 10% of cell stage
    1. Mitosis: Division of the Nucleus
    2. Cytokinesis: Division of the Cytoplasm

Q

prophase

A
  1. Chromatin (DNA) condenses into chromosomes
  2. Centrioles move to opposite ends of the cell
  3. Nuclear membrane dissolves
  4. Spindle fibers form from the centrioles

Q

Vocab

A

Chromtin: messy DNA
centrioles: keeps cell organized (make sure stuff is not in teh way) facilliated by spindle fibers
centrometere: middle of the chromosome
chromsome- made up of 2 chromaoids
chromoaid- strands of chromosome

Q

metapahse

A
  • Spindle fibers attach to centromeres
  • Chromosomes align along the equatorial plate (middle of cell)
  • has a checkpoint (cell checks chromosome and makes sure cell is ready to divide)

Q

Cytokinesis

A
  • cytoplams divides
  • anaimsl cells: prinching of the cell= cleavage furrow forms
  • plant cell: cell wall= cell plates are formed
17
Q

cloning

A
  • a sheep was the firts mammal cloned
    1. donor cell was taken form sheeps uter
    2. an egg was taken form female sheep
    3. they rmeoved egg nuclues are fused the 2 using electric shock
    4. the fused cell began dividing to create mebryo
    5. the embryo was placed in another female sheep
    6. the embryo forms a baby identically simular to first
18
Q

cloning cons

A

cons:
- takes lots of trys
- clones do not live a long life and suffer form health complications
- premature aging
- result in genetically vunerable species
Many people feel it is unnatural or unethical

19
Q

cloning pros

A
  • mass prodcution of high quality crops (Selective cloning)
  • used to repdouce engargered species (without captive breeding)
