This type of cell division is referred to as _____________________. -- this type of division is useful in the growth and repair of our bodies. meiosis _____________________ is a type of division that takes place in the production of gametes. zygote In meiosis, the _____________________ is created by the union of a sperm and egg and contains a full set of chromosomes, half from each parent. four daughter cells (each with half the normal number of chromosomes -- so when cells combine, have half from each parent) The product of meiosis is what? connective _____________________ tissue contains cartilage, blood, fat, and bone. taxonomy The study of scientific classification: kingdoms, phylum, class, order, genus, species Unit of classification: animal, plant, monera, bacteria, fungi The 5 Kingdoms: passive
