1. Unit 3 Notes: Reproduction & Meiosis

2. (1) Types of Reproduction
Asexual
Sexual
Growth & Reproduction
Reproduction
One Parent
Two Parents
Rapid Reproduction Rate
Slower Reproduction Rate
Offspring identical copy of Parent
Offspring a mixture of genes from Parents

3. (2) Binary Fission: Type of Asexual Reproduction.
Unicellular Organisms:
Parent splits in 2  Daughter cells identical
Purpose: Growth & Reproduction

5. (3) Antibiotic Resistance:
Bacterial DNA:
DNA = regular cell instructions
Plasmid = extra circular DNA
Bacterial Conjugation:
Exchange of DNA + Plasmid between 2 bacterial cells
Allows cells to pass on resistance
Antibiotics:
Kill all bacteria not resistant
Any which are survive
Make copies of selves (Binary Fission)
Exchange benefits (Conjugation)

7. (4) Budding: Type of Asexual Repro.
Organism develops tiny buds on body/cell
Bud = Offspring / Daughter cell
Bud detaches  Grows into adult

9. (5) Multicellular Life Cycle:
1. Meiosis  Make Sex Cells
2. Fertilization  Sperm + Egg
3. Zygote  Fertilized Egg (Developing Organism)
4. Mitosis  Grow, Develop & Repair new organism!

11. (6) Meiosis Summary:
Meiosis is used to make more sex cells (called Gametes or Sperm/Egg Cells).
Meiosis happens in stages like mitosis.
Meiosis divides twice:
Meiosis 1 
Start with 1 cell, end with 2 cells
Start 2n, end 2n (or Diploid  Diploid)
Meiosis 2 
Start with 2 cells, end with 4 completely unique cells
Start 2n, end 1n (or Diploid  Haploid)
