  4. 10. type of reproduction that requires one parent and the resulting offspring is genetically identical to the parent
  5. 11. type of cell divsion that results in two genetically identical daughter cells
  6. 12. occurs when egg and sperm meet and form a zygote
Down
  1. 1. fully grown parent cell splits into two halves, producing two new cells
  2. 2. basic physical and functional unit of heredity
  3. 3. a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells
