mitotic
Many organisms reproduce asexually by what division?
identical
In mitotic division, the offspring are genetically different or identical?
mutation
What is a change in DNA called?
gamete
In sexually reproducing organisms each parent donates what?
sex cell
What is a gamete?
homologus
Chromosomes occur in what type of pairs?
father and mother
In chromosomes, one of each pair is from who?
germ cell
Gametes develop from cells called?
Diploid
Sex cells can't be what?
production of gametes
When does meiosis happen?
half
In meiosis, it reduces chromosomes by how much?
2
Meiosis occurs in how many parts?
DNA is replicated
Before meiosis I what happens?
1.) chromosomes condense
2.) spindle forms
3.) homologous chromosomes pair up
4.) crossing over occurs
5.) nucleus envelope breaks open
6.) spindle microtubules attach to each chromosomes
What happens in Prophase 1?
synapsis
How do homologous chromosomes pair up?
chromosomes pairs line up on equator
What happens in metaphase 1?
chromosomes (not chromatids) are moved away from homologous partners and towards opposite ends
what happens in anaphase 1?
1.) cytoplasm divides
2.) 2 haploid daughter cells are made(still consist of chromatids)
what happens in telophase 1?
mitosis
Meiosis 2 is a lot like what?
spindle microtubules attach to centromere
what happens in prophase 2?
lined up single file along the equator
what happens in metaphase 2?
chromatids separated and pulled to opposite poles
what happens in anaphase 2?
1.) nuclear envelopes form around each set of chromosomes
2.)spindle breas up
3.) chromosomes relax
4.) New 4 haploid daughter cells (sister chromosomes)
what happens in telophase 2?
1 diploid germ cell ----> 4 haploid sperm
What is produced in spermatogenesis?
1 diploid cell-------> 1 haploid ovum and 2 polar bodies that denigrates
what is produced in oogenesis?
genes in a different combination than parents had
what is genetic recombination?
-crossing over (prophase 1 )
-spindle microtubules align the chromosomes and have a combination of maternal and paternal chromosomes that end up on either side of the equator is random (prophase1 -metaphase 1)
what two points in meiosis 1 allows for genetic recombination?
1.) homologous chromosomes pair up (synapse)
2.) non sister chromatids undergo interaction when both break at the same point and ends are traded
3.) 2/4 chromatids there is a new combination
what is crossing over?
the spindle microtubules attaching to chromosomes pull them to the equator randomly
When chromosomes line up for metaphase 1, how does genetic recombination happen?
Fertilization
When egg and sperm get together randomly is called what?
sex
What allows for a lot of genetic variation among the population?
cell organisms
Alteration of meiosis and fertilization is common to what?
