Life Science Genes & Molecular Matches
Cell Division
Meiosis
A type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell, as in the production of gametes (sex cells) and plant spores (happens through sexual reproduction).
organisms that would go through this process would be humans, and any other animals.
Mitosis
Body cell division in which the nucleus divides containing the same number of chromosomes (happens in all Eukaryotic cells Asexually.)
organisms that would experience this are plants, bacteria, and any other prokaryotic organisms.
Heredity
Genotype
The genetic makeup or allele combinations of an organism.
This is the cells makeup and it carries out functions to help the body grow.
Phenotype
An organism's physical appearance, or visible traits.
can be affected by the types of chromosomes you receive from your parents, and by the probability of a trait.
Types of Cells
Eukaryotic Cells
Cell with a nucleus (surrounded by its own membrane) and othrer internal organelles.
example: animals and humans
Prokaryotic Cells
An organism whose cells do not have an enclosed nucleus, such as bacteria.
example: plants, animals, bacteria
Flowers and Pollinators
Pollinators
pollinators are organisms that transfer pollen from one plant to another.
an example of a pollinator would be a bee, hummingbird, or butterfly.
Cross Pollination
A reproductive process in which the pollen from one plant is transferred to the stigma of another plant.
there is also a process called cross pollination, and that is when the flower uses its own stamen and anther to pollinate.
