Meiosis I: Anaphase I

Homologous pairs separate and move toward opposite poles of the cell

Which statement regarding the differences between mitosis and meiosis is false? - In meiosis four daughter cells are produced, whereas in mitosis two daughter cells are produced. - In mitosis, cytokinesis occurs once, whereas meiosis cytokinesis occurs twice. - Crossing over is a phenomenon that creates genetic diversity during mitosis.

- Crossing over is a phenomenon that creates genetic diversity during mitosis.

Meiosis I: Telophase I

- Duplicated chromosomes have reached the poles. - A nuclear envelope re-forms around chromosomes in some species. - Each nucleus has a haploid number of chromosomes.

Difference between mitosis and meiosis

- Meiosis has two rounds of genetic separation and cellular division while mitosis only has one of each. - In meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate leading to daughter cells that are not genetically identical. - In mitosis, the daughter cells are identical to the parent as well as to each other.

Which statement regarding the diploid life cycle is false? - Gametes are haploid cells. - Two haploid cells duse during fertilization. - Meiosis of the zygote generates somatic cells. - A zygote is a fertilized egg.

- Meiosis of the zygote generates somatic cells

Meiosis I: Prophase I

- The nuclear membrane dissolves. - Chromatin tightly coils up. Homologous chromosomes, each composed of two sister chromatids, come together in pairs in a process called synapsis. - During synapsis, chromatids of homologous chromosomes exchange segments in a process called crossing over. - The chromosome tetrads move toward the center of the cell.

With the exception of identical twins, siblings who have the same two biological parents are likely to look similar, but not identical, to each other because they have: - identical chromosomes but different genes - identical genes but different chromosomes - the same combination of traits but different genes - a similar but not identical combination of genes

- a similar but not identical combination of genes

Which is the correct order of events in meiosis? - sister chromatids are separated, chromosomes are duplicated, homologous pairs are duplicated, sister chromatids line up - homologous pairs are separated, sister chromatids are separated, sister chromatids line up, chromosomes condense - chromosomes are duplicated, sister chromatids are separated, homologous pairs are separated, homologous pairs line up - homologouse pairs line up next to each, sister chromatids are separated, chromosomes are duplicated - chromosomes are duplicated, homologous pairs line up next to each other, homologous pairs are separated, sister chromatids are separated

- chromosomes are duplicated, homologous pairs line up next to each other, homologous pairs are separated, sister chromatids are separated.

Which statement correctly describes the behavior of a tetrad during anaphase I of meiosis? - It travels intact to one pole of the dividing cell. - It splits into two pairs of sister chromatids, and one pair goes to each pole of the dividing cell. - It splits into two pairs of homologous, non-sister chromatids, and one pair goes to each pole of the dividing cell. - It splits into four chromosomes, which distribute in random pairs to the two poles of the dividing cell.

- it splits into two pairs of sister chromatids, and one pair goes to each pole of the dividing cell.

Which statement regarding sexual and asexual reproduction is true? - cell division only occurs after sexual reproduction. - only offspring from asexual reproduction inherit traits from two parents. - sexual reproduction typically includes the development of unfertilized eggs - sexual reproduction is more likely to increase genetic variation than is asexual reproduction.

- sexual reproduction is more likely to increase genetic variation than is asexual reproduction

Metaphase of meiosis I and meiosis II differ in that... - there are the same number of chromosomes - chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell - homologs line up in meiosis I and duplicated chromosomes line up in meiosis II - sister chromatids (homologous chromosomes) line up in meiosis I and chromosomes line up in meiosis II

- sister chromatids (homologouse chromosomes) line up in meiosis I and chromosomes line up in meiosis II

Meiosis

- the number of chromosomes is cut in half by separating each member of a homologous pair; thus no information is lost in the process. - turns diploid cells into haploid cells by separating homologous pairs. - Interphase w/ G1, S, and G2 to separate sister chromatids. - Goes through 2 rounds of division - meiosis I (separates homologous chromosomes) & meiosis II (separates sister chromatids)

Anaphase II

Which sexually reproducing species has characteristic haploid and diploid numbers of chromosomes?

Any

Variation

Any difference between individuals of the same species.

What is the role of the protein in genes

Each protein controls 1 trait. i.e blood type or eye color or ability to taste specific chemicals

HBB gene

Independent assortment

Independent segregation of genes during the formation of gametes

Crossing over is important because

It allows for more genetic diversity of gametes.

How is variation beneficial to evolution?

Meiosis (reduction division) takes diploid cells and creates haploids from them

Hemoglobin

What are the steps of meiosis?

Prophase 1, Metaphase 1, Anaphase 1, Telophase 1, Prophase 2, Metaphase 2, Anaphase 2, Telophase 2

During which phase of meiosis does the nuclear membrane reform around chromosomes?

Telophase II

Chiasmata

The X-shaped, microscopically visible region representing homologous chromatids that have exchanged genetic material through crossing over during meiosis.

Anaphase II

The centromere divides. The chromatids seperate and move to opposite ends of the cell. Each chromatid is now an individual chromosome.

Prophase II

The first phase of meiosis II. Prophase II is identical to mitotic prophase, except that the number of chromosomes was reduced by half during meiosis I.

Meiosis I : Metaphase I

The homologous chromosome pairs line up along the cell's equator (metaphase plate). Bivalents (homologous pairs) that come from the mother or the father line up randomly on either side of the cell equator, independently of the other homologous pairs. Each bivalent has a special protein structure called a kinetochore where spindle fibers attach during division to pull the chromosomes apart. These kinetochores are attached to spindle fibers that are attached to the opposite poles.

Meiosis I: Prometaphase I

The nuclear envelope completely breaks down as the mitotic spindle connects to kinetochores on chromosomes.

Sexual reproduction

The process by which cells from two different parents unite to produce the first cell of a new organism.

Genetics

The scientific study of heredity and heredity variation.

What does the sequence of genes determine?

The sequence tells a ribosome what order to put amino acids in to make a protein.

Telophase II

The spindle fibres disappear, and a nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromosomes.

Prometaphase II

The stage of meiosis II in which the meiotic spindles attach to kinetochores on chromosomes.

Gene

a stretch of DNA nucleotides in a specific sequence; a recipe to make a protein.

The 15th chromosome in humans carries a gene for the ______.
