MEIOSIS (textbook section 3.1 pg 74).  Sexual reproduction produces offspring that is genetically similar, but different from the parents. This is accomplished.

Genetics: Class Notes 2- Traits and Chromosomes

I. Where do my traits come from? From your parents More specifically, from the chromosomes your parents gave you.

II. Chromosomes in detail Chromosomes are made of _______. Each chromosome contains many genes.

C. Each chromosome has a partner (homologous chromosome) that contains the same type of genes. D. One chromosome is from your mother, and one is from your father.

III. Chromosome quantities A.Organisms of the same species have the same number of chromosomes: humans=46: 23 pairs goldfish=94: 47 pairs fruit flies=8: 4 pairs

IV. What are the two types of cells? Body cells have 2 sets of chromosomes = diploid cells Reproductive cells (sperm & egg) have one set. These are called gametes =haploid cells

V. How are these cells formed? New body cells are exactly the same as the original and are formed through a process called __________. Gametes have HALF the chromosomes as the original and are formed through a process called meiosis.

Summary What are the two processes that make new cells? What type of cell does each process make?
