Meiotic Mysteries By: Karen Schindler In class we went over the cycle of meiosis‚ the sexual life cycle‚ and its stages. Meiosis has four stages which are‚ prophase I‚ metaphase I‚ anaphase I‚ and telophase I. In an adult before ovulation the oocyte goes back to meiosis forming a meiotic spindle of microtubules to segregate homologous chromosomes. When it reaches fertilization‚ the egg itself undergoes a second round of division segregating sister chromatids. Which is Prophase II‚ Metaphase II

Introduction: The process of Meiosis involves 2 nuclear divisions that result in the formation of four haploid cells (2). Meiosis I is preceded by interphase‚ during which DNA synthesis occurs and each chromosome is made of two chromatids joined at the centromeres. In meiosis I‚ chromatids of homologous chromosomes may exchange parts by crossing over. During Prophase I homologous chromosomes come together and synapse. A tetrad consisting of four chromatids is also formed (2). In Metaphase I‚ the

experiment. These stages are prophase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase and telophase. There are two types of nuclear division include mitosis and meiosis. Mitotic cell division is involved in the formation of an adult organism from a fertilized egg‚ asexual reproduction‚ regeneration‚ and maintenance or repair of body parts. Mitosis typically results in new somatic‚ or body cells. Meiosis results in the formation of either gametes in animals or spores in plants. The cells formed have half the chromosome number of the

W4Q1 Meiosis is the process by which cells divide and create living creatures. Without meiosis we cannot have the process of mitosis‚ which is the process by which cells of tissue are created for living creatures. When meiosis occurs 4 daughter cells are created‚ while only 2 are created in mitosis. With the creation of 2 daughter cells the new cells will be similar to the parent cell‚ but will have differences‚ as there more parent cells involved. When mitosis occurs the daughter cells will be

is derived from the person’s mother and the other from the person’s father. Meiosis‚ on the other hand‚ occurs only in testis and ovary tissues‚ producing sperm and ova (eggs). The gametes that are produced by meiosis in humans are haploid‚ containing only one copy of each of the twenty-three chromosomes. Because of recombination and independent assortment of parental chromosomes‚ the daughter cells produced by meiosis are not genetically

Biology homework 10.2 1. How are the cells at the end of meiosis different from the cells at the beginning of meiosis? Use the terms chromosome number‚ haploid‚ and diploid in your answer. A: Cells in the begining of meiosis has diploid cells‚ with a full amount of chromosomes. In the end of meisos‚ the four genetically different daughter cells are haploid (gametes)‚ they have half the number of chromosomes. Because of this‚ they are able to fuse with other gametes (ex. egg and sperm) to form

microtubule structure that brings about chromosomal movement during nuclear division. 3. Compare Meiosis I to Meiosis II. Do they end up with the same exact results? Why or why not? Both Meiosis I and Meiosis II have four steps‚ but in Meiosis II it is a repeat of everything but instead of chromosomes sister chromatids are formed. No they do not end up with the same exact results‚ because during Meiosis II is the duplication stage basically. 4. What do the terms synapsis and crossing over mean
