2B: creating sperm and egg 2D: fertilization creates new genetic combinations 2E: each parent contributes half of their DNA 2F: sex chromosomes determine sex
I will be able to differentiate between gametogenesis and fertilization I will be able to ___that half of my genes come from my ___; the other half come from my ___. I will be able to ___that I am a new combination of my ___ and ___. I will be able to ___that girls have ____chromosomes and boys have ___chromosome
Chromosome - linear DNA molecule Centromere - special region of spindle attachment Homologous Chromosomes Have the same kind of genes in the same order 1 from father, 1 from mother Sister chromatids (Blue, orange)
DNA Replication Chromatids Homologous Chromosomes A chromatid pair has an identical sequence of DNA
Mitosis 2N NNNN Meiosis Replicate Division Replicate Division
Produce 4 haploid gametes through - Interphase – replication of DNA - Meiosis I – separation of homologous chromosomes - Meiosis II – separation of sister chromatids Only occurs in ovary/testis
Differences between male and female Meiosis In Humans
Half of the chromosomes from each parent. Haploid-> Diploid Genetic combination-> Variation Zygote has a new combination ( new genes-> mutation)
Bb BB bB bb b b spermovum 4 Possible combinations BB, Bb and bB= brown eyes bb gives rise to blue eyes 4 possible combinations of genes: B B fertilization
XX= female XY = Male Sperms determine the sex of the zygote If the egg is fertilized by a sperm with an X chromosome, what will be the sex of the zygote? A human male gets his X chromosome from _?
