asexual reproduction - a method of reproduction in which all of the genes passed to the offspring come from a single parent
binary fission - type of asexual reproduction in which the parent divides equally into two daughter cells
budding - type of asexual reproduction in which the parent divides unequally into two daughter cells
sporulation - process by which a one-celled organism is released from a single parent and has the ability to grow into an exact copy of the parent organism (common in fungi)
outgrowthing - type of asexual reproduction in which a parent plant produces a copy of itself that grows outward from it and will later detach and become a separate multicellular individual
runner - above ground connection between parent plant and its outgrowth
sexual reproduction - process by which two parents combine their genetic material to produce offspring
body cell - any cell of the body that contains the diploid number of chromosomes; not a sex cell; somatic cell
sex cell - a cell produced in the gonads that contains the haploid or half the number of body cell chromosomes
chromosomes - a thick, threadlike structure that contains genetic information in the form of DNA
cloning - a technique used to make identical offspring
somatic cell donor - organism that contributes a body cell in the process of cloning
egg cell donor - organism that contributes an egg cell for the cloning process
surrogate - female who has the egg cell with the diploid chromosome number implanted in her uterus for the cloning process
