is the normal process that body cells use to grow new tissue or repair existing tissue.

2.form two daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell

During mitosis, cells divide to form two daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell and to each other.

3.number of chromosomes remains the same

So, in this type of cell division, the number of chromosomes remains the same as in the parent cell.

4.Mitosis produces two daughter cells that are identical to

each other and to the parent cells.

Meiotic division, which only occurs in Eucharistic cells, is the process through which gametes or spores are produced.

7.produces haploid daughter cells with half of the species' usual number of chromosomes.

In meiotic division, a form of cell division occurs that produces haploid daughter cells with half of the species' usual number of chromosomes.

These resulting daughter cells are called gametes, and they aid organisms in their sexual reproduction

During meiosis, crossing over—a process unique to meiosis—can occur

10.exchange parts of their DNA.

Crossing over occurs during pro phase I when two chromosomes pair up and exchange parts of their DNA

11.Crossing over provides genetic diversity between the

Crossing over provides genetic diversity between the parents and their offspring.

Genetic variation can also occur when alleles are randomly sorted during meiosis.

13.Since each offspring receives a different combination of alleles from the

Since each offspring receives a different combination of alleles from the parent organisms, phenotype diversity results.

Mutations in genes can occur whenever a segment of DNA is inserted, deleted, or substituted.

15.segment of DNA is inserted,

Mutations in genes can occur whenever a segment of DNA is inserted, deleted, or substituted

16.Mutations sometimes create changes in an

Mutations sometimes create changes in an organism's phenotype or the phenotype of its potential offspring, but they also can have no effect on an organism at all.

Mutations that have no effect on an organism are called silent mutations

18.Mutations will only be passed on

Mutations will only be passed on to an organism's offspring in the mutation occurs in the sex cells, or gametes, of the organism.

19.Mutations in somatic cells do not

Mutations in somatic cells do not affect the genotype of potential offspring

20.Mutations increase genetic variability because

Mutations increase genetic variability because they change the genotype of an organism.
