Reproduction in living things is made possible by cell reproduction when the cells break apart to form an embryo. In chapter 9 we got to cover cell reproduction and all it entails. The quiz below is the second in a series and is perfect for measuring how well you understand the process through which cells break apart to form new cells. Give it a try and see if you need more reading hours.
