BIOLOGY UNIT CONCEPT MAP ASSIGNMENT

The organization of living things starts at the cellular level, with distinct differences between animal and plant cells. Animal cells are characterized by organelles such as the cytoskeleton, centrosomes, lysosomes, and multiple small vacuoles, while plant cells possess chloroplasts, large vacuoles, and a cell wall.

Importance of cells division
Cell division for repair

A bone break, a cut, or blister all require new cells to close the gaps.

Your body also replaces each red blood cell every 120 days

Each day your body sheds millions of dead skin cells

Replaced by new ones

Cell division for growth

The movement of these chemicals are caused by diffusion

Concentration is the amount of solute (substance) in a given volume of solution

Osmosis is how water enters and leaves the cell

All organisms grow. As multicellular organisms grow, the number of cells increases

The size of each cell does not increase because of how a cell uses chemicals to function

Cells require: Energy, nutrients, water, and gases

Must also be able to excrete carbon dioxide and other waste products.

Cell division for Reproduction

All cells use cell division to reproduce. Each time a parent cell divides, it results in two new organisms.

Multicellular organisms also need to reproduce and pas their genetic information along to their offspring. (Some multicellular organisms can produce offspring by asexual reproduction.)

Sexual reproduction in which a cell from one parent joins with the cell from another parent. These two parental cells are different from normal body cells: as they contain half of the DNA found in a cell.

Cells know as gametes undergo additional cell division prosses such as meiosis. (When two gametes combine.)

Offspring will inherit characteristics from both parents.

Each organisms inherits genetic information from its parent. It's important that each new cell has a complete set of genetic information

Asexual reproduction involves only one parent. The offspring are exact genetic copies of the parent.

You start life as a sing cell: a fertilized egg. Now your body is made up of trillions of cells. For a single cell to become a full grown multicellular plant or animal Cell division is required as it allows organisms to reproduce, grow, and repair damage.
