PPT-CELL DIVISION: MEIOSIS AND SEXUAL REPRODUCTION

Organisms that reproduce sexually are generally diploid each cell contains two sets of chromosomesa maternal chromosome set and a paternal chromosome setone inherited from each parent Google Images. Chapter 12. Outline. Introduction. Asexual. Sexual Reproduction. The Phases of Meiosis. Division I. Division II. Alternation . of Generations. Introduction. Asexual . Reproduction . - . p. roduction . Meiosis. Meiosis is the cell division which produces the . sex cells . or . gametes. .. Meiosis occurs in the cells of the . reproductive organs. :. Sperm cells – testes. Ova (eggs) – ovaries. Pollen - anthers. Please take out your science journal and outcomes and turn in any missing work to the WIRE basket. Thank you!. . Asexual Reproduction Review. Happens in almost all cells (Somatic cells). 1 parent cell. LECA=last eukaryotic common ancestor as distinct from LUCA (last universal com. . a. nc.). Probably had the ability to reproduce sexually…how do we know this??. Transition to a sexual LECA involved 4 and we will focus on 3 “transitions. Chapter 8. Asexual vs. Sexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction – new organisms/cells are genetically identical to parent cells/organisms . Sexual reproduction – offspring have a combination of genes from both parents. . ch. : 7. Sexual or Asexual. Asexual – involves a single parent organism and produces off-spring or daughter cells that are clones. Sexual Reproduction – involves genetic contribution in the form of gametes from two sources. Meiosis Terms . to Know:. Meiosis. : Cell division that produces gametes (sex cells/sperm & egg). These cells are used for sexual reproduction. They have . half . the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.. Review of Mitosis. Mitosis is a form of . asexual reproduction. This means that it . only requires 1 organism . (ex. Skin cells dividing). For growth and repair in . somatic. (body) cells!. Results in 2 cells identical to the original (parent) cell. 10.2 – Meiosis Sexual Reproduction Function: creates gametes (sperm, egg, pollen) for sexual reproduction . Meiosis: Cell division for sexual reproduction. Males - testes Females - ovaries Sex Cells Meiosis and Sexual Reproduction Chapter 6 Sexual Reproduction Sexual Reproduction – reproduction that requires two parents and produces offspring that are genetically different from each other and from either parent. Where do you come from?. Sex: . Woman, XX. . Man, XY. Gender: Female Male. . Egg, Ovum Sperm. Fertilization – union of sperm an egg to produce zygote . Vocabulary. Somatic Cell. Gamete. Homologous Chromosomes. Diploid Cells ( 2n ). Haploid Cells ( n ). Normal body cell. Sex cell – sperm or egg. Matching pairs of chromosomes. Cells that have homologous chromosomes (somatic cells). Cell division / Asexual reproduction. Mitosis. produce cells with same information. identical daughter cells. exact copies. clones. same amount of DNA . same number of chromosomes. same genetic information. Defined. : Gametes from two separate parents unite. Meiosis: Diploid (2n) to haploid (n) cells . Mechanism that allows for . genetic diversity. Many eukaryotes reproduce in this manner. Plants, animals and fungi.
