The second phase of Meiosis I
What is Prophase I?
On the board, draw and label the fourth phase of Meiosis II
Telophase II
The process by which a germ cell undergoes division twice to produce 4 gametes in which the chromosome number is halved.
What is Meiosis?
The longest phase of the cell cycle
What is interphase?
The number and type of cells at the end of Meiosis II
What is 4 haploid cells?
The first phase of Meiosis I
What is Interphase I?
On the board, draw and label the third phase of Meiosis II
What is Anaphase II?
Meiosis in male animals is called
Spermatogenesis
Is meiosis I or meiosis II more similar to mitosis?
What is meiosis II?
The purpose of meiosis.
What is: to produce 4 gametes that have half of the number of chromosomes than the parent cell?
The fourth phase of Meiosis I
What is Anaphase I?
On the board, draw and label the first phase of Meiosis II
What is Prophase II?
The process in Meiosis that ensures more genetic variation (occurs in Prophase I)
What is crossing over?
The three phases of Interphase.
What are G1, S, and G2?
Types of chromosomes that line up in the middle of cell during Metaphase I and are separated during Anaphase I
What are pairs of homologous chromosomes?
The fifth phase of Meiosis I
What is Telophase I & Cytokinesis
On the board, draw and label the second phase of Meiosis II
What is Metaphase II?
Meiosis in female animals
Oogenesis
2 chromosomes that are similar is size, shape and genetic content are referred to as…
What are Homologous Chromosomes?
Types of chromosomes that line up in the middle of cell during Metaphase II and are separated during Anaphase II
What are chromosomes and sister chromatids?
The third phase of Meiosis I
What is Metaphase I?
The last part of Meiosis II (after PMAT)
What is cytokinesis?
A reproductive process that involves two parents that combine their genetic material to produce a new organism, which differs from both parents
What is Sexual reproduction?
A type of reproduction in which only one parent creates offspring that is genetically identical
What is asexual reproduction?
This phenomenon during meiosis ensures that offspring inherit a random combination of maternal and paternal chromosomes, significantly contributing to genetic diversity (happens during Metaphase I)
What is the Law of Independent Assortment?
