Is mitosis and cytokinesis asexual or sexual reproduction? Why?

• asexual because it produces genetically identical cells

• sexual because it produces genetically identical cells

• asexual because it creates variation in the genetic material of daughter cells

• sexual because it creates variation in the genetic material of daughter cells

What does diploid mean?

• di- means end and ploid means division. So, diploid refers to the end of cell division.

• di- means 2 and ploid means cells. diploid means two identical cells

• di- means fatal and -ploid means cells. So, diploid means cell death.

• di- means 2 and ploid means chromosome. So, diploid means two sets of chromosomes

• Replication of DNA

• Duplication of cellular contents
