  3. 10. , is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells.
  4. 14. , the union of two gametes.
  5. 15. , occurs when a DNA gene is damaged or changed in such a way as to alter the genetic message carried by that gene.
  6. 16. , male reproductive cell, produced by most animals.
  7. 19. , the fourth phase of mitosis, the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells.
