This is because the cells we need for reproduction need to be genetically different from those of the rest of the body.

Cellular reproduction

When a mother cell divides into two or more daughter cells, this process is known as cell division.  Cell division frequently takes place as a component of a longer cell cycle. There are two different types of cell division in eukaryotes: a vegetative division (mitosis), in which each daughter cell inherits the genetic makeup of the parent cell, and a reproductive division (gametogenesis), in which the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is cut in half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).  In cell biology, the process of mitosis, during which replicated chromosomes are split into two new nuclei, is a stage of the cell cycle. The number of chromosomes is maintained in the genetically identical cells produced by cell division.

The process of _____________ is modeled in the plant cell diagrams seen here.
grigory [225]

<u>Answer:</u>

The process of "Osmosis" is modeled in the plant cell diagrams seen here.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Osmosis is the natural gross migration of solvent particles into a zone of higher solute concentration via a selectively permeable membrane, in the path that seeks to balance the amounts of solvents on both the ends. Osmosis as biological membranes are semipermeable, is a critical mechanism in biological systems.

Such membranes are usually impenetrable to massive and polar molecules like polysaccharides, ions and proteins while being porous to hydrophobic or non-polar molecules like lipids and to small molecules as carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitric oxides and nitrogen.
