How do little elephants grow up to be BIG elephants? Why do cheese cubes melt at different rates? – The division of the cell nucleus into 2 equal parts -Produces 2 identical daughter cells from 1 single parent cell -10% Mitosis X 2x XX Meiosis X 2x 1/2x 1/2x 1/2x 1/2 x Meiosis Sexual cellular reproduction in which the number of chromosomes are reduced in half. This allows for variation. Mitosis Asexual reproduction in which the cell divides in half producing a genetic copy of the original cell. Crossing Over of Genetic Information Yes No Occurs in Sex Cells – egg and sperm All cells except sex cells and red blood cells.
