  2. 4. the process by which cells and organisms produce other cells and organisms of the some kind
  3. 5. the process by which a cell replicates its chromosomes and then segregates then producing two identical nuclei in preparation for cell division.
  4. 6. new plants develop from the roots stems or leaves of the parent plant.
  5. 10. cell prepares to divide by growing

  1. 1. an organism breaks into two or more fragments each of which develops into a new individual.
  2. 3. second step of cell division mitosis
  3. 7. first step of cell division mitosis
  4. 8. the molecule that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of an organism.
  5. 9. fission a single parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells.
  6. 11. a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell, as in the production
