Document Summary

Split into meiosis 1 and meiosis 2 meiosis 1 goes from 2n double stranded to 1n double stranded meiosis 2 goes from 1n double stranded to 1n single stranded o. Division in meiosis i occurs in four phases: Cell goes through all of these phases as a continuum. Typically occupies more than 90% of the time required for meiosis. In synapsis, homologous chromosomes loosely pair up, aligned gene by gene. In crossing over, non sister chromatids exchange dna segments. Each pair of chromosomes forms a tetrad, a group of four chromatids: tetrad consists of a homologous pair- referred to as tetrad during prophase i. Each tetrad usually has one or more chiasmata, x shaped regions where crossing over occurs. In metaphase i, tetrads line up at metaphase plate, with the one chromosome facing each pole. Microtubules from one pole are attached to the kinetochore of one chromosome of each tetrad.
