Meiosis
Think about it
100
when you flip a coin, what is the probability that it will come up heads
What is 1/2
100
how many different allele combination would be found in the gametes produced by a pea plant whose genotype was RrYY?
What is 2
100
what principle states that during gamete formation genes for different traits separate without influencing each other's inheritance
What is principle of independent assortment
100
these cells are produced by meiosis
What is gametes
100
what might happen if the gametes of a species had the same number of chromosomes as the species' body cells?
What is when gametes fused during fertilization, the offspring would have more chromosomes in their body cells than their parents have. the species chromosome number would not be constant
200
organisms with 2 identical alleles for a particular trait are
What is homozygous
200
if a pea plant RrYy is crossed with RRYy how many phenotypes are the offspring expected to show
What is 2
200
situations in which one allele for a gene is not completely dominant over another allele for that gene
What is incomplete dominance
200
the tetrad forms during
What is crossing over
200
how many chromosome sets are in a diploid cell?
What is 2 sets of chromosomes
300
R= round, r= wrinkled Y= yellow, y= green what is the phenotype for RrYY
What is round yellow
300
the number of chromosomes in a gamete is represented by the symbol
What is N
300
which phase can the tetrad be found
What is prophase I
300
what are homologous chromosomes
What is the 2 sets of chromosomes found in a body cell--one set inherited from the male parent and the other inherited from the female parent
400
what assorts independently
What is chromosomes
400
if the diploid number is 12, what is the haploid number
What is 6
400
what happens between meiosis I and II that reduces the number of chromosomes?
What is replication does not occur
400
what happens to the number of chromosomes per cell during mitosis
What is the number of chromosomes is cut in half
500
these cells have one allele for each gene
What is gametes
500
meiosis results in the formation of
What is 4 genetically different cells
500
contrast the cells produced by mitosis with those produced by meiosis
What is mitosis produces diploid cells, whereas meiosis produces haploid gametes
