When egg and sperm begin meiosis they are...

diploid

how many copies of DNA does each gamete cells have

each have 1n DNA

oogenesis

meiosis in females, outcome= 1 ovum, 3 polars

spermatogenesis

meiosis in males

what is the difference between metaphase I and II

metaphase I consists of 1 cells with 2 tetrads. metaphase II consists of 2 cells each with 2 sister chromatid pairs.

can tetrads be found in meiosis II

no, the homogulous chromosomes/pairs have already split into chromatids.

crossing over

occurs during prophase I to increase genetic variation.

when does crossing over occur

prophase I

tetrads

replicated homologous chromosomes that form a total of 4 chromosomes

After telophase I

resulting cells are haploid and have 1 pair of chromosomes

How many copies of DNA do sex cells have upon entering meiosis

4

does meiosis start and end with the same # of DNA

both have 4 copies

tetrad
