Chapter IV Part 2 Reproduction of EUKARYOTIC cell By Pn. Aslizah Binti Mohd Aris 06-4832168
Overview: Variations on a Theme Living organisms are distinguished by their ability to reproduce their own kind Genetics is the scientific study of heredity and variation Heredity is the transmission of traits from one generation to the next Variation is demonstrated by the differences in appearance that offspring show from parents and siblings Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Sets of Chromosomes in Human Cells Human somatic cells (any cell other than a gamete) have 23 pairs of chromosomes A karyotype is an ordered display of the pairs of chromosomes from a cell The two chromosomes in each pair are called homologous chromosomes, or homologs Chromosomes in a homologous pair are the same length and carry genes controlling the same inherited characters Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

The sex chromosomes are called X and Y Human females have a homologous pair of X chromosomes (XX) Human males have one X and one Y chromosome The 22 pairs of chromosomes that do not determine sex are called autosomes Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
A diploid cell (2n) has two sets of chromosomes Each pair of homologous chromosomes includes one chromosome from each parent The 46 chromosomes in a human somatic cell are two sets of 23: one from the mother and one from the father A diploid cell (2n) has two sets of chromosomes For humans, the diploid number is 46 (2n = 46) Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

For humans, the haploid number is 23 (n = 23) A gamete (sperm or egg) contains a single set of chromosomes, and is haploid (n) For humans, the haploid number is 23 (n = 23) Each set of 23 consists of 22 autosomes and a single sex chromosome In an unfertilized egg (ovum), the sex chromosome is X In a sperm cell, the sex chromosome may be either X or Y Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Behavior of Chromosome Sets in the Human Life Cycle Fertilization is the union of gametes (the sperm and the egg) The fertilized egg is called a zygote and has one set of chromosomes from each parent The zygote produces somatic cells by mitosis and develops into an adult Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
At sexual maturity, the ovaries and testes produce haploid gametes Gametes are the only types of human cells produced by meiosis, rather than mitosis Meiosis results in one set of chromosomes in each gamete Fertilization and meiosis alternate in sexual life cycles to maintain chromosome number Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

The Variety of Sexual Life Cycles The alternation of meiosis and fertilization is common to all organisms that reproduce sexually The three main types of sexual life cycles differ in the timing of meiosis and fertilization Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Gametes are the only haploid cells in animals In animals, meiosis produces gametes, which undergo no further cell division before fertilization Gametes are the only haploid cells in animals Gametes fuse to form a diploid zygote that divides by mitosis to develop into a multicellular organism Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Meiosis reduces the number of chromosome sets from diploid to haploid Like mitosis, meiosis is preceded by the replication of chromosomes Meiosis takes place in two sets of cell divisions, called meiosis I and meiosis II The two cell divisions result in four daughter cells, rather than the two daughter cells in mitosis Each daughter cell has only half as many chromosomes as the parent cell Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
The Stages of Meiosis In the first cell division (meiosis I), homologous chromosomes separate Meiosis I results in two haploid daughter cells with replicated chromosomes; it is called the reductional division In the second cell division (meiosis II), sister chromatids separate Meiosis II results in four haploid daughter cells with unreplicated chromosomes; it is called the equational division Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

Prophase I Prophase I typically occupies more than 90% of the time required for meiosis Chromosomes begin to condense In synapsis, homologous chromosomes loosely pair up, aligned gene by gene Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
In crossing over, nonsister chromatids exchange DNA segments Each pair of chromosomes forms a tetrad, a group of four chromatids Each tetrad usually has one or more chiasmata, X-shaped regions where crossing over occurred Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Metaphase I In metaphase I, tetrads line up at the metaphase plate, with one chromosome facing each pole Microtubules from one pole are attached to the kinetochore of one chromosome of each tetrad Microtubules from the other pole are attached to the kinetochore of the other chromosome Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings

You should now be able to: Distinguish between the following terms: somatic cell and gamete; autosome and sex chromosomes; haploid and diploid Describe the events that characterize each phase of meiosis Describe three events that occur during meiosis I but not mitosis Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Spermatogenesis is production of mature sperm The timing and pattern of meiosis in mammals differ for males and females Gametogenesis, the production of gametes by meiosis, differs in females and males Sperm are small and motile and are produced throughout the life of a sexually mature male Spermatogenesis is production of mature sperm
Spermatogenesis and oogenesis in an animal cell
Spermatogenesis In diploid animals, the only haploid cells are gametes produced by meiosis and used in sexual reproduction. Gametes are produced by specialized cells. In males, spermatogenesis produces spermatozoa within the testes. Primordial germ cells (primary spermatogonia) undergo mitosis to produce secondary spermatogonia. Secondary spermatogonia transform into primary spermatocytes (meiocytes), which undergo meiosis I, giving rise to two secondary spermatocytes. Each secondary spermatocyte undergoes meiosis II, producing haploid spermatids that differentiate into spermatozoa.

Oogenesis In females, oogenesis produces eggs (oocytes) in the ovary. Primordial germ cells (primary oogonia) undergo mitosis to produce secondary oogonia. Secondary oogonia transform into primary oocytes, which grow until the end of oogenesis. Primary oocytes undergo meiosis I and unequal cytokinesis, producing a large secondary oocyte, and a small cell called the first polar body. The secondary oocyte produces two haploid cells in meiosis II. One is a very small cell, the second polar body, and the other rapidly matures into an ovum. (5) The first polar body may or may not divide during meiosis I. Polar bodies have no function in most species and degenerate, so that a round of meiosis produces only one viable gamete, the ovum. Human oocytes form in the fetus, completing meiosis only after fertilization.
Oogenesis Eggs contain stored nutrients and are much larger Oogenesis is development of mature oocytes (eggs) and can take many years

Spermatogenesis differs from oogenesis: In oogenesis, one egg forms from each cycle of meiosis; in spermatogenesis four sperm form from each cycle of meiosis Oogenesis ceases later in life in females; spermatogenesis continues throughout the adult life of males Oogenesis has long interruptions; spermatogenesis produces sperm from precursor cells in a continuous sequence
