Introduction
Haploid Versus Diploid
Overview
Meiosis 1
Meiosis 2
100

The number of chromosomes you get from each parent.


LOWEST 2 GROUPS

What is 23 chromosomes?

100
The number and letter combinations used to describe haploid and diploid.
What are n (haploid) and 2n (diploid)?
100
This is what Meiosis is divided into.
What are Meiosis I and Meiosis II?
100

This is the number of cells present at the end of Meiosis 1.

What are 2?

100

One of these is NOT part of the chromosome. spindle, centromere, or chromatid

What is the spindle?

200

The term used to describe body cells made during MITOSIS.

Lowest 2 groups

What is a somatic cell?

200

This is what a sperm is (haploid or diploid).


Lowest 2 groups

What is haploid?

200
This must happen before Meiosis begins.
What is DNA replication?
200

This is a process that occurs during Prophase 1, only during Meiosis. It creates extra genetic diversity. 

What is crossing over?

200

This is the number and type of cells made at the end of Meiosis 2.

LOWEST 2 GROUPS

What are 4 genetically unique haploid gametes?

300
The term used to describe the diploid cell created after the egg and sperm fuse.
What is a zygote?
300

A cell with 2 sets of chromosomes. Example: fertilized zygote. 

What is a diploid cell?

300

What are the 8 stages of meiosis


EXCLUDES TOP 2 GROUPS

What are Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I, Telophase I, Prophase II, Metaphase II, Anaphase II, and Telophase II?

300
This is what happens during crossing over.
What is the exchange of DNA between homologous chromosomes?
300
A cell with a diploid number of 24 undergoes meiosis, so this is the number of chromosomes in each daughter cell.
What is 12?
400
The type of cells made during meiosis.
What are gametes?
400

In Meiosis I, cells are haploid or diploid?

What is diploid?

400
This is the cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.
What is cytokinesis?
400

This is the number of cell divisions during all of meiosis.

TOP 3 GROUPS SIT OUT

What are 2 divisions?

400

After meiosis, are gametes genetically identical or different. Explain why. 

What is genetically different because the chromosomes have crossed over and independently assorted. 

500
The term used to describe a pair of chromosomes.
What are homologous chromosomes?
500

In Meiosis II, cells are haploid or diploid.

What is haploid.

500
The stage in the development of a cell following mitosis or meiosis, during which the nucleus is not dividing.
What is Interphase?
500

This law describes the fact that chromosomes are separated into chromatids randomly and separately for each chromosome. 

What is the Law of Independent Assortment?

500

How are Anaphase I and Anaphase II different?

Anaphase I separates homologous chromosomes, Anaphase II, the sister chromosomes are separated.
