  2. Genetics-Study of how traits are passed from parent to child • Cell • Nucleus • Chromosomes • DNA

  3. Reproduction • Asexual • sexual

  4. Asexual reproduction • One parent • Two identical daughter cells • If Parent cell has genetic disease, the offspring daughter cell will have it as well as pass it to all future offspring.

  5. Examples of Asexual reproduction

  6. Reproduction Asexual One Parent Two identical daughters Same DNA Pass down disease Examples: Hydra, Planaria, Plant cuttings, Bacteria, fungi Sexual Two Parents
