EXERCISE #3
"Asexual Reproduction of Cells-Mitosis"
Asexual reproduction of cells is called mitosis. Immediately before
this cell division process begins, the DNA of a cell (either haploid or
diploid) duplicates itself creating two identical copies of every DNA
molecule (and chromosome). The DNA copies move to opposite ends of the
cell. Then the cell partitions itself into two cells (each with exactly the
same DNA as the original cell). The purpose of asexual reproduction by
mitosis is to create new cells that are genetically identical to the original
cell.
Mitosis produces
more of the same.
Haploid mitosis does happen in some organisms,
but will be covered in a more advanced biology course.
