Summary Introduction

To explain:

The increase in genetic variation due to meiosis.

Introduction:

The process of cell division, in which four haploid daughter cells are formed from single mother cell, is called meiosis. This is also known as reduction division. The chromosome number of daughter cells is reduced by half as compared to chromosome number of the mother cell.

When using the concept of "a calorie in is equal to a calorie out" how important is the quality of the calories?
What did the Cre-lox system used in the Kikuchi et al. 2010 heart regeneration experiment allow researchers to investigate?  What was the purpose of the cmlc2 promoter?  What is CreER and why was it used in this experiment?  If constitutively active Cre was driven by the cmlc2 promoter, rather than an inducible CreER system, what color would you expect new cardiomyocytes in the regenerated area to be no matter what? Why?
