Chapter 2, Problem 19PDQ

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

That when the crossing over occurs in the first meiotic prophase.

Introduction:

The meiosis is the process of cell division that produces four haploid cells from the single diploid cell. These haploid cells consist of only half the amount of chromosomes that are present in the parental diploid cells. There are two types of meiosis occurs namely meiosis I and meiosis II. The haploid cells produced by this process consists of a unique combination of paternal and maternal chromosomes. This process plays an important role in genetic recombination within species.

(b)

To determine:

That when the synapsis occurs in the first meiotic prophase.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.)   Data Table 1Stage    Totals    PercentInterphase        Mitosis:        Prophase        Metaphase        Anaphase        Telophase        Cytokinesis        Totals    100    100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
