All of the following cells, shown in various stages of mitosis and meiosis, come from the same rare species of plant. a. What is the diploid number of chromosomes in this plant? b. Give the names of each stage of mitosis or meiosis shown. c. Give the number of chromosomes and number of DNA molecules per cell present at each stage.
For a species with a diploid number of 22, how many chromosomes will be present in the somatic nuclei of individuals that are haploid, tetraploid, trisomic, and monosomic.
Consider a diploid organism that follows the XX-XO mode of sex determination. Normally, there are 7 chromosomes in its somatic cell. The chromosomal composition is as follows:
Chromosome I is a large acrocentric chromosome
Chromosome II is a large telocentric chromosome
Chromosome III is a small telocentric chromosome
Chromosome IV (X chromosome) is a medium submetacentric chromosome
Aneuploidy was observed in a particular individual wherein there are three copies of Chromosome III.
Illustrate the source of aneuploidy if it occurs in Meiosis I. Diagram spermatogenesis starting with the primary spermatocyte up to spermatozoa, making sure to distinguish between chromosomes and the different phases of meiosis I (prophase I*, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I). Indicate the respective chromosome equation and chromosome number of the primary spermatocyte, secondary spermatocyte, spermatid, and spermatozoon.

Meiosis is involved in the production of gametes, unlike mitosis. c. Crossing over occurs in meiosis I but not in meiosis II or mitosis. d.

- In the plant, Haplopappus gracile there is one long pair and one short pair of chromosomes. In the diagrams below, anaphase of individual cells in meiosis or mitosis in a plant that is heterozygous for the genes, A and B (which are on separate chromosomes) are shown. The lines represent chromosomes or chromatids and the points of the "V" are the centromeres. For each case, indicate if the cell represents meiosis I, meiosis II, mitosis, or impossible situation. Provide a brief (one sentence) reason for your decision. 1. A A a В a B 9. A a B A a 2. а В В a A a B 9. B. a A 3.arrow_forwardThe diploid chromosome number of an organisms is 8. How many of each of the following are present in each cell at the stage of mitosis and meiosis indicated?arrow_forwardOne reason that worker bees forgo their own reproduction to help their sister (the queen) reproduce is that female bees are more closely related to their sisters than they are to their own offspring. This quirk of genetics results from the fact that bees have haplodiploid sex determination, in which females are diploid, with a mother and a father, but males are haploid, developing from unfertilized eggs. Because males are haploid, they produce sperm by mitosis. Explainwhy haplodiploid sex determination causes females to be more closely related to their sisters than to their offspring.arrow_forward
