Meiosis

Genetic

Mitosis

This is a process where a single cell divides to make two new cells that are exactly the same as the original. It’s how your body grows and repairs itself.

This word refers to anything related to genes, which are tiny parts of your cells that carry instructions for how you look and how your body works.

This is a special kind of cell division that happens to create reproductive cells like sperm or eggs. Unlike mitosis, the new cells have half the amount of DNA.

Reproduction

Sexual

Clone

A clone is an exact copy of something. A clone is a living thing that has the exact same genetic material as its parent.

Reproduction is how living things make more of themselves, like how animals have babies or how plants grow seeds.

Sexual reproduction is when two parents, like a mother and a father, combine their genes to create a new organism with a mix of both parents’ traits.

Pollination

Survival

Asexual

Asexual reproduction is when a single organism can reproduce by itself, without needing another parent. The new organism is a clone of the parent organism.

Pollination is the process where pollen from one flower moves to another flower, which helps plants make seeds.
