Unit 2 Reproduction

A cell that has a full set of chromosomes, and the chromosomes are homologous

• diploid

• haploid

• sexual

• asexual

a cell with a half set of chromosomes

• haploid
• diploid
• sexual
• asexual

gametes are _____

• haploid
• diploid
• zygotes
• asexual

somatic cells are _____

• haploid
• diploid
• zygotes
• sexual

the two kinds of cellular division are

• mitosis and meiosis
• mitosis and fertilization
• fertilization and meiosis
• somatic and gamete

the single cell that is made when sperm and egg combine their genetic material (DNA)

• zygote
• gamete
• somatic
• haploid

Mitosis is _____ reproduction because all offspring (known as daughter cells) have the DNA from only one parent and are clones of that parent

• sexual
• asexual
• fertilization
• haploid

this type of cellular division makes cells that have a half set of chromosomes

• mitosis
• meiosis

meiosis is needed for ____ reproduction so that egg and sperm have only a half set of chromosomes each, and they combine their genetic material to make a new individual that is genetically varied from its parents

• asexual
• sexual
• fertilization
• haploid

this type of cellular division makes two cells that are genetically identical to the parent

• mitosis
• meiosis
