This occurs when chromosomes don't split properly

What is Nondisjuction

200

True or false, the diploid cell duplicates it's chromosomes before it's first division.

What is True

300

The term for how many chromosomes a daughter cell has.

What is Haploid

300

One of these does not occur in Meiosis A. two daughter cells at completion B. four daughter cells at completion C. two nuclear divisions D. formation of homologous chromosome pairs

What is A?

300

Mitosis and meiosis have this in common: A. both are only done in animal cells. B. all organisms do both mitosis and meiosis. C. they are both involved in cell division.

What is C, they are both involved in cell division?

300

How many individual phases are in Meiosis (including interphase)?

What is 9?

300
If a sperm cell contains 8 chromosomes, it comes from an animal that has ______ chromosomes. A. 4 B. 8 C. 12 D. 16 E. 24
What is D?
400
The overall function of meiosis includes all of the following EXCEPT A. gamete production. B. reduction of chromosome number (from 2N to N). C. providing genetic variation in sexually reproducing organisms. D. growth of the overall individual.
What is D?
400
A cell with a diploid number of 24 undergoes meiosis, this many chromosomes are in each haploid cell.
What is 12?
400

One of these is FALSE. A. In meiosis, daughter cells are haploid. B. In meiosis, there are four daughter cells. C. In mitosis, there are two daughter cells. D. In mitosis, the daughter cells are genetically identical. E. In meiosis, the daughter cells are genetically identical.

What is E

400

In this phase of Meiosis, crossing over occurs A. prophase I B. anaphase II C. telophase I D. prophase II E. anaphase I

What is A?

400
