By now, you should be By now, you should be very familiar with very familiar with mitosis!mitosis!
Do you remember Do you remember what happens?what happens?
What do we already know?What do we already know?
WHY does mitosis occur?
• In multicellular organisms:
• In unicellular organisms:
For growth and development (cell division!)
For reproduction!
Ah HA!Ah HA!
Mitosis = Asexual Reproduction
YOU, a multicellular organism, are constantly
reproducing…….. asexually!
Asexual ReproductionAsexual Reproduction(Mitosis)(Mitosis)
How many offspring (daughter cells) are there in mitosismitosis?
How many parents (parent cells) are there?
Ummm…Is this like…uh…that stuff we giggle about in health class?
Sexual ReproductionSexual Reproduction(Meiosis)(Meiosis)
How many offspring (daughter cells) are there in meiosis?
How many parents (parent cells) are there?
Where did I come from?Where did I come from?
Meiosis = Sexual
Reproduction
Remember that both egg and sperm go through meiosis to
be created
This is where you came This is where you came from!from!
HalfHalf the genetic information comes from the genetic information comes from each parent (sperm and egg).each parent (sperm and egg).
Meiosis = Sexual Reproduction

Sex!!! Sex!!! (RATED G: none of you have to close your eyes)(RATED G: none of you have to close your eyes)
How many cells are there in the end?
How many cells are there in the beginning?
