Genome
It is the complete set of genetic materials in somatic cells.
Maintenance
Genome must be maintained to ensure proper biological functions.
Mitosis
This division allows complete set of genetic material to be inherited.
Mitosis
Old and damaged cells are replaced through this division.
Budding
Hydra reproduces asexually through this method of asexual reproduction.
Growth
This refers to an increase in size because of an increase in the number of cells or an increase in cell size.
Hayflick Limit
This refers to the limit of the number of times that a cell can undergo mitosis.
Maintenance of genetic material, growth and development, repair and recovery, asexual reproduction
Significance of Mitosis:
reduction of genetic material and sexual reproduction, inheritance, genetic diversity, survival
Significance of Meiosis:
Genetic Engineering
It is the process of using laboratory technologies to directly change, remove, or add DNA to an organism's genetic makeup.
Genetically Modified Organism
It is any plant, animal, or microorganism whose genetic material (DNA) has been changed using modern biotechnology or genetic engineering.
