Explain mechanisms by which two homologous chromosomes are tied with each other in metaphase I (metaphase in the first meiosis) and by which this tie is lost at the onset of anaphase I (anaphase in the first meiosis). In your answer include an explanation of the mechanism by which sister chromatids are held together during anaphase I.
Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
