Anaphase II

In prophase I, homologous chromosomes pair up and undergo crossing over. Can this occur also during prophase II? Explain.

At the end of meiosis I, the two members of a homolgous pair end up in different cells, so they cannot pair up and undergo crossing over during prophase II.

F

Only animals, not plants reproduce sexually, alternating meiosis with fertilization. True or False.

False, both plants and animals

___ is the raw material for evolution by natural selections.

How many DNA molecules (double helices) are present?

Which letter represents nonsister chromatids.

I

A certain eukaryote lives as a unicellular organism, but during environmental stress, it produces gametes. The gametes fuse, and the resulting zygote undergoes meiosis, generating new single cells. What type of organism could this be?

It must be a fungi or a protist

The two homologs of a pair move toward opposite poles of dividing cell during

Meiosis I

Identify the stage of meiosis shown

Metaphase I

____ makes it possible for organisms to reproduce asexually.

Mitosis

Each sperm of a pea plant contains seven chromosomes. What are the haploid and diploid numbers of this species.

The haploid (n) is 7; the diploid number (2n) is 14

If materal and paternal chromatids have identical alleles, will crossing over lead to genetic variation?

The recombinant chromosomes will be genetically equivalent to parental chromosomes

How do you know this cell is undergoing meiosis

The two homologs of a homologous pair are associated with each other at the metaphase plate. Chiasmata are clearly present (crossover has occurred). These processes do not occur in mitosis

Crossing over contributes to genetic variation only when it involves the rearrangment of different alleles. True or False.

True

Crossing over produces some parental gametes with chromosomes like that of the parents and some recombinant gametes with a mixture of genes from both sets of chromosomes. True or False

True

Either halooid or diploid cells can divide by mitosis, depending on the type of life cycle. True or False

True

Only diploid cells can udergo meiosis, while haploid cells can undergo mitosis or meiosis. True or False

True

Sexual reproduction produces greater genetic variation than asexual reproduction. True or false.

True

n=3

What is the haploid number (n) of this cell?

If the DNA content of a diploid cell in the G1 phase of the cell cycle is represented by x, then the DNA content of the same cell at metaphase of meiosis I would be 2x. If we continue to follow the cell lineage, the DNA content of a cell at metaphase of meiosis II would be:

X

An unfertilized egg contains a(n)__ chromosome; a sperm contains a(n) __ chromosome.
