Given what we know, we can confirm that if a cancer medicine wishes to stop cellular division, it must target the Centrioles of a cell.
<h3>What are the Centrioles of a cell?</h3>
The centrioles are cylinder-shaped organelles made up of microtubules.
Their function is to organize the contents of the cell before cellular division.
This is done to ensure that once the cell divides, its contents are split evenly to each daughter cell.
They also play a role in initiating the cellulardivision process.
Therefore, given the role of the centrioles in organizing the contents of the cell for cellular division, as well as initiating the first part of celldivision, we can confirm that in order for a cancer medicine to stop cell division, it must target the centrioles.
Organism needs time to reach adulthood and to reproduce.
Requires the contribution of two parents.
Asexual Reproduction:
Creates genetically identical offspring.
Organism doesn't have to waste energy to find a mate.
Requires the contribution of a single parent.
Explanation:
Sexual Reproduction:
Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of a male and female gamete. A gamete is a haploid cell that contains half of the chromosomes as in the parent cell. This process is called fertilization and it results in the formation of a zygote, a diploid cell that develops into an embryo and ultimately an individual.
Sexual reproduction involves two parents, each of which contributes one set of chromosomes (23) to the offspring.
Asexual Reproduction:
Asexual reproduction produces an exact copy of one single parent. Offspring produced through asexual reproduction do not possess genetic variation.
Asexual reproduction occurs through four processes:
