Meiosis I Prophase I: - nuclear membrane dissolves * centrioles move to poles * spindle fibres forming * DNA has been replicated and forms chromosomes made of 2 identical chromatids * Homologous chromosomes line up to form a bivalent‚ 2 chromosomes or 4 chromatids (TETRAD)‚ this process is called SYNAPSIS * Where chromatids overlap is called a CHIASMATA‚ and it allows for CROSSING OVER of genetic information between chromosomes Metaphase I: - homologous chromosomes

Meiosis is extremely critical because its job is to check that all species produced by sexual reproduction include the right number of chromosomes we should have. This activity decreases the number of chromosomes in half‚ permitting the sexual reproduction process to prevail. Because meiosis produces cells that eventually becomes reproductive cells‚ this division in chromosome number is critical to the cell cycle. Without this process‚ the combination of two gametes during fertilization would result

Meiosis BIOL 1111 Introduction Meiosis is the second important kind of nuclear division. It resembles mitosis in many ways but the consequences of meiotic divisions are very different from those of mitotic divisions. While mitotic division may occur in almost any living cell of an organism‚ meiosis occurs only in special cells. In animals‚ meiosis is restricted to cells that form gametes (eggs and sperm). Each species has a characteristic number of chromosomes per somatic cell. Fruit flies

Mitosis in a Nutshell • The stages of the cell cycle can be broken down into six stages: o Interphase‚ Prophase‚ Metaphase‚ Anaphase‚ Telophase Interphase • Is the "resting" or non-mitotic portion of the cell cycle. • It is comprised of G1‚ S‚ and G2 stages of the cell cycle. • DNA is replicated during the S phase of Interphase Prophase - the first stage of mitosis. • The chromosomes condense and become visible • The centrioles form and move toward opposite ends of the cell ("the poles")

Mitosis Mitosis is the process where a cell divides‚ to create two diploid cells identical to the first other than for a small bit of protein that lets the cell know how many times it has divided. 1. The cell duplicates its chromosomes so that it now has double as many‚ but they remain attached. 2/3. The cell begins to split until it has the chromosomes have separated completely‚ to form two separate set of chromosomes. The cell begins to divide. 4. The cell divides completely to form two diploids

Lab 8: Mitosis‚ Meiosis and the Cell Cycle . header Purpose: This activity is designed to familiarize you with the phases of mitosis and meiosis and compare these processes in a comparison chart. This activity will be three parts. For parts I and II‚ please scan your labeled work. Preparation: There is no preparation or materials needed for this activity. You will simply need access to a scanner to submit your work. Procedure Part 1: For this portion of the laboratory‚ please sketch a cell

Excellent work! A cell goes from diploid (2N) to haploid (1N) during meiosis I when pairs of homologous chromosomes split apart into different daughter cells. This haploid condition continues during meiosis II when sister chromatids split apart during the formation of four daughter cells. Score for incorrect answer: 0 General feedback 1 (May include media. Include graphic and file name): Remember that a diploid cell has pairs of chromosomes—each pair represents one chromosome that came from the

is to get rid of all the waste that is produced. So‚ if there are many small cells (more surface area) rather than one large cell‚ the waste can be disposed of more readily. The other 3 reasons are critical to the survival of all organisms: Growth‚ repair and reproduction. • Growth: This is a result of mitosis. The more cells in an organism‚ the larger that organism is. Humans start off as one single cell‚ and by the time they are adults‚ they have over 10 trillion cells!!! This increase in
