involves the joining of male and female gametes (sex cells) which each contain genetic information from the mother and father
4
New cards
gametes
formed by meiosis, non identical, haploid cells with 23 chromosomes in humans which fuse in fertilization. creates variation in offspring.
5
New cards
asexual reproduction
involves one parent with no gamete fusion, happens by mitosis, and there is no mixing of genetic information so the offspring is an exact copy.
6
New cards

cells in the reproductive organs divide by meiosis to form gametes
