mitosis
1. involves two successive nuclear and cell divisions
2. yields haploid daughter cells
3. results in production of four genetically different daughter cells
4. involves chromosome movement and distribution to daughter cells
5. preceded by replication of chromosomes during interphase
6. results in the production of gametes
7. involves pairing of homologous chromosomes and crossing-over
8. results in the production of two genetically identical daughter cells
Meiosis
The process of meiosis
Meiosis is a special type of cell
division necessary for the production
of sex cells (gametes) for the
purpose of sexual reproduction.
2N cell (diploid). N is
the haploid number of
chromosomes. Each
chromosome is replicated.
DNA replication precedes meiosis.
If genetic mistakes (mutations)
occur here, they will be passed on
(inherited by the offspring).
Crossing over
has occurred.
Meiosis involves a single
chromosomal duplication followed
by two successive nuclear divisions,
and it halves the diploid chromosome
number.
Homologous
chromosomes pair up.
The pairs are separated.
An overview of meiosis is shown on
the right. Meiosis occurs in the sex
organs of plants and animals.
An intermediate
cell forms with a
replicated copy of
each chromosome.
Meiosis produces variation
During meiosis, a process called
crossing over may occur when
homologous chromosomes may
exchange genes. This further adds to
the variation in the gametes.
Chromatid
The chromosomes
line…
Prophase I of meiosis is different from prophase in mitosis because
The homologous chromosomes pair up and crossing over occurs in meiosis not
mitosis.
The nuclear envelopes do not disappear in meiosis as it does in mitosis.
DNA replication occurs and the chromosomes condense in meiosis, but not in
mitosis.
OHomologous chromosomes are pulled apart in mitosis, but not in meiosis.

- "Meiosis, oh meiosis, let me tell you what it means. It's a special kind of cell division with some funny little genes. It starts with a cell splitting in two, just like mitosis would; but from there, things get wild and wacky, and I'll tell you if I could. Instead of dividing once more, the cells each split again; creating four brand new cells, not just two like back then. And here's where the magic happens, with chromosomes all pairing up, then swapping bits of info, a dizzying process that can't be summed up. When all is said and done, those four new cells are not quite the same; they've got half the number of chromosomes, and a whole new genetic game. Meiosis, oh meiosis, it's a puzzle that's so much fun. And if you study it like I have, you'll see how it all gets done!"arrow_forwardA normal diploid cell from a chimpanzee has 48 chromosomes. How many chromosomes will be in a chimpanzee cell just before meiosis begins, after meiosis I, and after meiosis II? After which of these stages will the chromosomes have two chromatids?arrow_forwardMeiosis DrawingIn this assignment you will track and draw the chromosomes of a diploid organism through all the stages of meiosis. Make sure you label the alleles for genes on the chromosomes the whole way through - every chromatid should have labeled alleles. For meiosis, both crossing over and independent assortment can occur. For the purpose of this exercise, assume that there is a single crossover event on the long chromosome between the A and D genes. Only show crossing over after its fully occured. There are no crossover events on the short chromosome. Regarding independent assortment, there are two possible outcomes in meiosis if there are two homologous pairs of chromsomes. Include both independent assortment possibilities - one on the left side and one on the right. Fill in the possible gamete genotypes for each outcome. If you do this correctly you should end up with 8 different types of gametes.arrow_forward
