Organization of life
Cell theory (e.g. cells come from cells, cells are the smallest unit of living things), specialized cells and tissues (e.g. muscles, nerve, etc.) and cellular levels of organization (e.g. cells, tissues, organs, systems)
Mitosis, meiosis (e.g. process and purpose)
Mitosis is the process where cells divide to produce new cells. If you cut your hand, new cells are produced to heal the wound. These new cells are produced through this process of mitosis. Your body is continually producing new cells to replace old ones. New cells are also produced as you are growing. The cell has a very orderly process that is used to produce these new cells which we call mitosis.
DIFFERENCE IN MITOSIS & MEIOSIS Mitosis produces 2 new cells with the full set of 46 chromosomes (diploid) while meiosis produces cells with half the number of chromosomes (23 chromosomes in the haploid set for humans). The cells produced through meiosis are called gametes and are used for reproduction. Mitosis starts with a diploid cell (46 chromosomes) and ends with 2 diploid cells. |
