Meiosis Facts
Meiosis vs. Mitosis
100

Number of stages in Meiosis.

What is "8"?

100

Phase in which the cell begins to pinch apart.

What is "Telophase I"?

100

Number of cells created at the end of Meiosis II.

What is "4"?

100

The process by which the chromosome number is halved.

What is "Meiosis"?

100

Type of cell division where genetically identical cells are formed.

What is "Mitosis"?

200

Phase in which tetrads are formed.

What is "Prophase I"?

200

Phase where a full set of chromosomes gather at the poles of the 2 cells.

What is "Telophase I"?

200

Phase not present before Meiosis II.

What is "Interphase"?

200

Placed after the stage of Meiosis to indicate the cycle.

What is a "Roman Numeral"?

200

Process cell would undergo to form a gamete.

What is "Meiosis"?

300

Phase of meiosis where the nuclear membrane reforms in the almost 4 cells.

What is "Telophase II"?

300

Phase in which spindle fibers connect to chromosomes and align them at the cell's center.

What is "Metaphase I"?

300

In the 2 daughter cells, the phase in which the sister chromosomes line up at the equator.

What is "Metaphase II"?

300

Female gamete.

What is an "Egg Cell or Egg"?

300

Process cell would undergo to form a somatic cell.

What is "Mitosis"?

400

DNA is referred to as this in interphase.

What is "Chromatin"?

400

Phase in which chromosomes are pulled to opposite ends of the cell.

What is "Anaphase I"?

400

Phase of meiosis where spindle fibers separate the sister chromatids.

What is "Anaphase II"?

400

A human body cell has 46 chromosomes. Sperm cells contain this many.

What is "23 chromosomes"?

400

Something that occurs in meiosis, but not mitosis.

What is "Crossing Over" or "Homologous Chromosomes lining up"?

500

Phases of the gamete cell cycle in order.

What is "Interphase - Prophase I - Metaphase I - Anaphase I - Telophase I/Cytokinesis  - Prophase II - Metaphase II - Anaphase II - Telophase II/Cytokinesis"?

500

Phase where crossing over occurs

What is " Prophase I"?

500

Phase in which the 2 cells have 23 chromosomes each, which are beginning to re-condense.

What is "Prophase II"?

500

Reasons for genetic variation.

What is "Resistance to disease, resistance to climate change, various valid reasons are acceptable"?

500

Haploid vs Diploid.

What is "Diploid: Containing two complete sets of chromosomes and Haploid: Containing half or one set of chromosomes"?
