Document Summary

Alternation of generations - a life cycle in which there is both a multicellular diploid form, the sporophyte, and a multicellular haploid form, the gametophyte; characteristic of plants. Asexual reproduction - a type of reproduction involving only one parent that produces generically identical offspring by budding or by the division of a single cell or the entire organism into two or more parts. Autosome - a chromosome that is not directly involved in determining sex, as opposed to a sex chromosome. Chiasmata - the x-shaped , microscopically visible region representing homologous chromatids that have exchanged genetic material through crossing over during meiosis. Crossing over - the reciprocal exchange of genetic material between non sister chromatids during synapsis of meiosis i. Cytokinesis - the division of the cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells immediately after mitosis. Diploid cell - a cell containing two sets of chromosomes (2n), one set inherited from each parent.

Related Questions

1. How does meiosis generate genetic diversity?

a) crossing over

b) random alignment at metaphase I

c) synapsis

d) both crossing over and random alignment at metaphase I

2. What would happen if crossing over occurred between sister chromatids?

a) Genetic diversity would decrease due to the loss of gene combinations.

b) Genetic diversity would increase due to the addition of gene combinations.

c) Gene rearrangement would lead to changes in gene expression.

d) Nothing would happen becasue sister chromatids are genetically identical or nearly identical.

3. Animals that sexually reproduce are _____ and produce _____ gametes. (haploid, diploid; haploid, haploid; diploid, diploid; diploid, haploid)

4. The F1 generation of a cross between two individuals, one that is homozygous dominant for a trait and the other that is homozygous recessive for the trait, will yield progeny with the same phenotype. (true or false)

5. Homologous chromosomes separate from each other in:

a) mitosis

b) meiosis I

c) meiosis II

d) They never separate from each other during any form of cell division

A. The exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis I.

B. The pairing or tight association of homologous chromosomes in meiosis I. Results in the formation of a tetrad.

C. Non-identical copies of the same chromosome. Present in all diploid cells, even before replication. These chromosomes are the same length and contain genes for the same characteristics, but may have different alleles for each gene. D.

The period of the cell cycle that includes G1, S phase, and G2. E. A structure that develops during cytokinesis in plants.

F. Condensed chromosomes.

G. An invagination that develops during cytokinesis in animal cells.

H. When an organism has two copies of every chromosome (2n).

I. Two identical copies of a chromosome. These are only present after DNA replication.

J. The phase of the cell cycle when DNA is replicated.

INTERPHASE

What follows G2 phase in a gamete cell?

MITOSIS

Number of chromosomes in the parent cell.

Number of chromatids in the parent cell.

Number of chromosomes in the daughter cell.

Number of chromatids in the daughter cell.

Meiosis 1:

Number of chromosomes in the parent cell.

Number of chromatids in the parent cell.

Number of chromosomes in each Meiosis I daughter cell.

Number of chromatids in each Meiosis I daughter cell.

Meiosis II:

Number of chromosomes in the âparentâ cell (which is a daughter cell from Meiosis I).

Number of chromatids in the âparentâ cell.

Number of chromosomes in each Meiosis II daughter cell.

Number of chromatids in each Meiosis II daughter cell.

Are the daughter cells haploid or diploid at the end of Meiosis II?

Which phase or phases of Meiosis account for the genetic variability among the daughter cells? Howâ¦ what happens in this phase to create the diversity?

Comparing Mitosis and Meiosisâ¦..

How many daughter cells result from Meiosis? Are they diploid or Haploid?
