DNA: Duplicated and Homologues
Sexual reproducers have 2 sets of homologous chromosomes. Cells must duplicate DNA prior to cell division. What is the distinction between duplicates and homologues?

Meiosis & Sexual Reproduction
Meiosis, a type of cell division, results in production of gametes (eggs & sperm). Genetically unique sex cells combine at fertilization to form one-of-a-kind offspring.

What Is Mitotic Cellular Division?
In order for organisms to grow, develop and maintain life, cells must divide. Cellular division involves the basic stages of interphase, nuclear division and cytokinesis.

Introduction to Chromosomes in Human Cells
First discovered in the 1800s, chromosomes are cell bodies that provide efficient storage for DNA.

Ploidy: Diplod and Haploid
Humans are diploid organisms with two sets of homologous chromosomes, but we also contain haploid sex cells with one set and half the number.

Repairing Chromosomal Breaks
A nick in the DNA strand is known as a chromosomal break. Cells have repair mechanisms for both single strand and double strand breaks.
