    Study Notes

    Oxygen Production

    • Photosynthesis is the primary process responsible for producing oxygen in the atmosphere.
    • Through photosynthesis, green plants, algae, and certain bacteria convert sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water into glucose and oxygen.

    Formation of Identical Daughter Cells

    • Mitosis results in the formation of identical daughter cells.
    • During mitosis, one parent cell divides to produce two genetically identical cells, maintaining the same chromosome number.

    Cell Replication Processes

    • Meiosis is a process not involved in the replication of cells for growth or repair.
    • Meiosis produces gametes for sexual reproduction, resulting in non-identical cells.

    Creation of New Cells

    • Cytokinesis is the process that results in the creation of two new cells from a single parent cell.
    • It usually follows mitosis and involves the division of the cytoplasm, leading to two daughter cells.

    Gas Exchange Process

    • Respiration is primarily involved in the exchange of gases.
    • This process includes the intake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide, essential for cellular metabolism.

    Division of Cells with Non-Identical Daughter Cells

    • Meiosis involves the division of a single cell into two non-identical daughter cells.
    • This process reduces the chromosome number by half and introduces genetic diversity through crossing over and independent assortment.
