Textbook Question
Chapter 13, Problem 9TYU
SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY The diagram in quest ion 6 represents just a few of the chromosomes of a meiotic cell in a certain person. Assume the freckles gene is located at the locus marked F, and the hair-color gene is located at the locus marked H, both on the long chromosome. The individual from whom this cell was taken has inherited different alleles for each gene ("freckles" and "black hair" from one parent, and "no freckles" and "blond hair" from the other). Predict allele combinations in the gametes resulting from this meiotic event. (It will help if you draw out the rest of meiosis and label the alleles by name.) List other possible combinations of these alleles in this individual’s gametes.

Sketch a comparison of Metaphase Mitosis and Metaphase I Meiosis (diploid:8 chromosomes n=4)
- Be sure to number the chromosomes and use a “P” for paternal and “M” for maternal.
The drawings below represent four possible cells produce by meiosis in a cell pf the genotype AaBb. Examine the figures below and answer the questions that follow:
1. How many different types of cells are produced at the end of Meiosis I? A *Write your answer as a word, not a number
2. Is there any other way you could have arranged the chromosomes? For example,
a. Could A and a be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I (Yes/No)? B
b. Could B and b be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I (Yes.No)? C
c. Could A and B be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I (Yes/No)? D
d. Could A and b be arranged so that both go to the same cell after Metaphase I?(Yes./No) E
3. Are the daughter cells haploid, or diploid? F
4. Do the daughter cells have the same genetic composition as the original cell (Yes/No)? G
5. Focus on the four daughter cells…

- Metaphase and Meiosis are distinct cellular processes. Draw and label two cells that illustrate the cell pictured below in Metaphase of Mitosis and Metaphase I of Meiosis. Indicate the position of all chromosomes, centrosomes and microtubules.arrow_forwardFill in the blanksarrow_forwardThough the stages of meiosis have the same names as the stages of mitosis, they exhibit fundamental differences. What are the main differences between the two processes? Meiosis differs from mitosis in that the number of chromosomes is halved and genetic variation is introduced in meiosis, but not in mitosis Meiosis differs from mitosis in that the number of chromosomes is halved and genetic variation is reduced in meiosis, but not in mitosis. Metaphase and telophase portions of meiosis and mitosis are the same. Meiosis and mitosis are also the same, except for the number of chromosomes. Anaphase I and anaphase are different. Prophase and telophase portions of meiosis and mitosis are the same. Meiosis II and mitosis are also the same and have the same number of chromosomes. Anaphase I and anaphase are different.arrow_forward
