8615293696	cell division	the way cell undergo reproduction.	8
8615312744	Prokaryotes	they reproduce through asexual reproduction.	9
8615318388	Eukaryotes	Undergoes sexual reproduction.	10
8615320134	sexual reproduction	requires the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg) with the use of reproductive organs such as the testes and ovaries. Each gamete has exactly half the necessary chromosomes to make for a specific eukaryotic offspring.(I.E humans, 23 chromosomes egg, 23 chromosomes sperm.)	11
8615363679	Gametes	sperm( male sex cell) and egg or ovum (female sex cell)	12
8615380688	Asexual Reproduction	the creation of a genetically identical offspring and it requires only one parent.	13
8615440650	Mitosis	maintains cell population in multicellular organisms and is responsible for asexual reproduction.	14
8615446257	Binary Fission	How mitosis works within asexual reproduction Steps to binary fission 1) Duplication of chromosomes and the separation of copies 2)Continued elongation of the cell and movement of the copies 3)Division into two daughter cells (sister chromatids separate	15
8615492154	Chromatin	entire complex consisting of equal amounts of RNA and protein	16
8615504330	Sister Chromatid	joined copies of an original chromosome they are attached together by proteins in a region known as the centromere.	17
