Summary Introduction
To write:
Explain why cellular reproduction is necessary for life.
Given:
Cellular reproduction is essential for life.
Introduction:
Cellular reproduction refers to the procedure by which the cells differentiate to produce new cells. Every time when the division of the cell takes place, a copy of all of its chromosomes is generated, which are tightly coiled DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) strands i.e. the genetic material. It maintains the directions for the entire life, and transmits a similar copy to the new cells that is produced. There are mainly two kinds of cellular reproduction observed in the human beings, that is mitosis and meiosis.

Your instructor will give you 2 amino acids during the activity session (video 2-7. A. First color all the polar and non-polar covalent bonds in the R groups of your 2 amino acids using the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. B. Next, color where all the hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions and ionic bonds could occur in the R group of each amino acid. Use the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. C. Position the two amino acids on the page below in an orientation where the two R groups could bond together.
