How does meiosis make sure that a baby has the same number of chromosomes as a parent? O A. Each parent mixes the DNA of their parents before putting it in an egg or sperm. B. Each parent only puts half of their DNA into each egg or sperm so together they make the same number as one adult has. C. It doesn't. The amount of DNA in a child is always twice the amount as one of its parents because it got DNA from two parents. O D. The number of crossing over events is always an even number.

Question 5 Review meiosis. This is a multiple answers question. Which statement is true about the meiosis? O Meiosis is preceded by the replication of chromosomes O In early prophase I, each chromosome pairs with its homolog and crossing over occurs O In anaphase I, pairs of homologous chromosomes separate O At the end of meiosis 1, the number of chromosomes is reduced by half and genetic variation is produced. O During Meiosis II, the number of chromosomes is reduced by half and genetic variation is produced.

Od. Sodium ions O e. Carbon dioxide molecules The diploid number of chromosomes in a certain animal is 8 (2n 8). How do the four pairs of homologous chromosomes align and separate during meiosis? O a. They align and assort independently to form any of 16 different combinations O b. All 16 chromatids move together O c. Exactly two maternal and two paternal chromosomes always move to each of the two poles O d. The first to move influences all the others O e. All of the maternal chromosomes always move to one pole, and all the paternal chromosomes always move to the other pole e here to search

Only some cells derive from a mitosis event.. 1. Which statement is most correct regarding the difference between mitosis and meiosis? O Meiosis can produce any cell type, while mitosis can only make gametes (sperm/egg cells) * Mitosis essentially clones a cell (makes an identical copy), while meioisis is a ma O complex process that divides up a cell's set of chromosomes into gametes (sperm/egg cells) ODNA replication is required for mitosis but not for meiosis ODyads are seen in mitosis but not meiosis 2 What distinguichon hon
