Cell Reproduction- the process by which new cells are
formedA. Single-celled organisms- one parent cell produces two
new identical “daughter cells”- cell division results in population
growthB. Multi-cellular organisms- two parent cells produce cells
which receive half their genes from each parent
- cell division results in growth of organism
Life of a CellCell division is a continuous process that involves three stages:1. Interphase – growth and preparation2. Mitosis – division of the nucleus3. Cytokinesis – division of the cytoplasm and organelles
