Meiosis in General
What is a type of cell division that only gametes do?
Meiosis
This is the stage where crossing over happens.
Prophase I
The first stage of Meiosis II
Prophase II
True or False, Meiosis only happens in gametes?
True
Mitosis happens in everything other than gametes.
Is knowing Meiosis helpful being a scientist.
Yes because then you can understand how humans and organisms form from the gametes.
What is the purpose of Meiosis
Growth, Reproduction, Repair
This is where the spindle fibers pull the chromosome pairs apart.
Anaphase I
When the two cells divide into four.
Telophase II
True or false, cells that go through Meiosis look identical.
False
Mitosis cells are identical to the parent.
Meiosis cells are genetically different than the parent.
How many cells does Meiosis produce.
4
This is where the one cell divides.
Telophase I
Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
Metaphase II
true or false, Mitosis and Meiosis are both types of division.
True
Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
Metaphase I
The chromosomes split.
Anaphase II
True or False, in both Meiosis and Mitosis you can see the chromosomes divide through a microscope.
True because in prophase 1 and 2 and prophase you the chromosomes condense.
True or false, Mitosis and Meiosis both produce two cells?
False
Mitosis produces 2 cells
Meiosis produces 4 cells
True or false, Both go through PMAT at least once?
True
