Which of the following is not a property of homologous chromosomes? They pair physically during prophase of meiosis I. They segregate to opposite poles at anaphase of meiosis I. They carry alleles for the same genes at the same chromosomal position. They are attached to the same centromere during G₂ of the cell cycle. They exchange genes by crossing-over during meiosis.
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:
When a mother cell divides into two or more daughter cells, a parent cell has undergone the process of cell division. Typically, cell division happens as part of a wider cell cycle. Two types of cell division exist mitosis and meiosis. When people say "cell division," they typically mean mitosis, the process of creating new body cells. Meiosis is the process by which egg and sperm cells are produced. Mitosis is a key life mechanism.
