All cells come from pre-existing cells It is necessary to replace worn out cells in multicellular organisms It is required for growth in multicellular organisms
An increase in size will require an increase in surface area to volume ration Cell division subdivides the cytoplasm into small units (cells) surrounded by plasma membranes

Prokaryotes
Prokaryotes have no nucleus They have a single circular chromosome Prokaryotes simply divide their cells in two by binary fission

Eukaryotes
Eukaryotes must divide their nucleus (and other organelles such as mitochondria) in preparation for cell division (mitosis or meiosis) Before the nucleus divides the genetic material replicates (duplicates)

Mitosis
The process of cell division which results in the production of two daughter cells from a single parent cell.
The daughter cells are identical to one another and to the original parent cell.
MITOSIS
Chromosomes rod-like structures, consisting of nucleic acids and protein, located within the nucleus
The no.of chromosomes per nucleus is normally constant for all the individuals of a species, e.g. Man has 46, rat 42, garden pea 14 and tomato 24. Every body (somatic) cell contains the characteristic number of chromosomes but mature germ cells (gametes) contain only half the usual number one member of each pair. The gametes are described as haploid in chromsome number and the somatic cell as diploid.

MEIOSIS
Meiosis
Meiosis is the type of cell division by which germ cells (eggs and sperm) are produced.
One parent cell produces four daughter cells. Daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes found in the original parent cell
Meiosis
During meiosis, DNA replicates once, but the nucleus divides twice.
