Mitosis/Meiosis
| Stomatic Cells | body cells 2 daughter cells with same amount as the parent |
| Gametes | sex cells egg sperm tetrad - 4 daughter cells with same amount of genetic material |
| Autosomes | 1-22 everything but sex chromosomes |
| Homologous | have same |
| Sex | x and y determine sex (xx) girl (xy) |
| Diploid | has 2 copies of every chromosome the zygote |
| Haploid | half of number of chromosome separate strands of chromosome |
| Mitosis | produces genetically identical cells happens through whole life diploid cells asexual reproduction |
| Meiosis | produces unique cells only certain times haploid cells sexual reproduction crossing over occurs during prophase 1 |
| Genetic Diversity | recessive - hidden dominant - showing |
| Fertilization | since the sperm and eggs have diffrent DNA they are genetically diverse |
| Crossing Over | when chromosomes exchange DNA reason you dont look 100% like your siblings |
| Alleles | genetic information shared between 2 chromosomes while crossing over |
| Mitochondria | helps sperm and flagellum |
