Document Summary

Bio 1010u: lecture 15: cell division and cell cycle (part 2) Includes two rounds of nuclear division: meiosis i and meiosis ii. Each daughter cells contains half of the number of chromosomes as the parent. Each daughter cell is genetically unique (different from mitosis) Synapsis: homologous chromosomes pair with each other side by side, gene for gene (unique to meiosis: result: a four stranded structure called a bivalent. Chiasmata within bivalents are visible crossovers between non-sister chromatids. Non-sister chromosomes are chromatids from the paternal and the maternal chromosomes. Crossing over is important because there is no nucleotides lost or gained, no cell is the same, enzymes activate and cut the dna and reattached, chiasmata represent the swapping of the dna: genetic variation. Maternal and paternal homologues are randomly distributed: allows for increases in genetic variation. Reductional division: from a diploid cell, to two haploid cells. There is no dna synthesis between meiosis i and meiosis ii.
