Mitosis and meiosis are the two major processes by which eukaryotic cells reproduce. Compare and contrast the processes of mitosis and meiosis. Consider the stages involved in each and their eventual products. How are the differences biologically significant relative to growth and reproduction? Be prepared to discuss how life is dependent upon both types of cellular reproduction. Mitosis is equal division of a cell and Meiosis is specialized type of cell division of chromosomes within a cell

Gregor Mendel and the Principles of Inheritance Intro: In the 1800’s‚ a hypothesis existed that suggested that genetic material is contributed by the two parents by mixing an equivalent way. However‚ this “blending hypothesis” did not last long due to the discovery that if this had been true‚ we would end up with a uniform population of individuals. Gregor Mendel‚ a scientist and monk‚ documented a particulate mechanism for inheritance. This was developed before chromosomes were observed under

Mendel demonstrated that the inheritance of certain traits in pea plants follows particular patterns‚ now referred to as the laws of Mendalian Science. The profound significance of Mendel’s work was not recognized until the turn of the 20th century‚ when the independent rediscovery of these laws initiated the
