The Application Of Knowledge On Mitosis

In Cloning
1. Cloning is the process of producing individuals or genetically identical copies of
a cell, tissue or an organism through asexual reproduction.
 
2. Cloning is form of asexual reproduction because the organisms produced have
the same genetic and chromosomal number as the parent organism.
 
3. The nucleus that directs the development of the offspring comes from a diploid
cell reproduced through mitotic cell division and not through the fusion of
gametes produced by meiotic cell division.
