Set #7

2. where cells self-destruct in an orderly manner to maintain tissue homeostasis
4. each capable of developing into a new, independent individual.
7. set of chromosomes and fuses with another gamete during fertilization
8. two complete sets of chromosomes, meaning two copies of each chromosome
12. where new plants develop from vegetative parts like stems, roots, or leaves, rather than seeds or spores.
14. that serves as the attachment point for spindle fibers during cell division
16. the cells in the body other than sperm and egg cells
17. is the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg) to form a zygote, initiating the development of a new individual.
18. form of asexual reproduction where a single organism divides
19. a cell, individual, or generation characterized by having only one complete set of chromosomes (half the normal number)

1. develops from an outgrowth or bud on the parent organism
3. that form during cell division (mitosis and meiosis)
5. two identical copies of a chromosome formed during DNA replication
6. he exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids
9. (the anther) to the female part (the stigma), enabling fertilization and the development of seeds and fruit.
10. composed of microtubules, that plays a crucial role in cell division and the formation of cilia and flagella.
11. replicates its DNA, and divides into two daughter cells
13. creating four haploid daughter cells (gametes) from one diploid cel
15. where a single cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells
