 Asexual (relies on mitosis): all of the parents DNA goes to the offspring  Sexual (relies on meiosis): used to create sex cells.
Asexual Reproduction vs. Sexual Reproduction Asexual Reproduction – Diploid cells give rise to identical diploid cells – DNA comes from one parent cell.

Meiosis Chromosomes double just like in mitosis to form chromatids Half the chromatids go to one end of the cell, the other half to the other end Two new cells are made The chromatids divide again to form FOUR haploid gametes Q: Why is it necessary to half the amount of genetic information passed on? A:To increase variation in populations

Making gametes As we have seen, mitosis is a form of cell reproduction that makes two diploid daughter cells from one diploid parent cell It is used for growth, repair and asexual reproduction The ovaries in females and the Testes in males make haploid gametes (eggs and sperm) Note in plants, the male gamete is pollen. Pollination by birds or insects is a form of sexual reproduction Gametes are created by a different form of cell reproduction called Meiosis
