DO NOW 11/29/17 How many cells are produced during mitosis? Are they genetically different or identical? 3. What type of cells are produced during mitosis? (somatic body cells or sex cells) 4. List the phases of mitosis in the correct order. 5. What occurs during each phase of mitosis? 6. Define cytokinesis.
Division That Produces Sex Cells Meiosis – Division That Produces Sex Cells Why do you share some but not all characters of each parent? What are the rules of this sharing game? At one level, the answers lie in meiosis.
Reduction-Division Genetic Recombination MEIOSIS Reduction-Division Genetic Recombination
Meiosis The form of cell division by which GAMETES or sex cells are produced. GAMETES are sperm or egg cells. Gametes have HALF the # of chromosomes. Haploid- contains half the amount of chromosomes Diploid- contains full set of chromosomes
Meiosis Continued DIPLOID (2n) HAPLOID (n) Meiosis is involved in SEXUAL reproduction. TWO divisions (MEIOSIS I and MEIOSIS II).
Interphase Cell grows and DNA replicates Occurs before meiosis I, but not meiosis II Cell grows and DNA replicates
Meiosis I Cell division that reduces the chromosome number by one-half.
Homologous Chromosomes Pair of chromosomes (maternal and paternal) that are similar in shape and size. Homologous pairs (tetrads) carry GENES controlling the SAME inherited traits. Humans have 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes: First 22 pairs are autosomes 23rd pair is sex chromosomes
Homologous Chromosomes eye color locus hair color Paternal Maternal
Sex Chromosomes XX chromosome - female XY chromosome - male
MEIOSIS I Homologs separate Meiosis I
Prophase I Nuclear envelope disappears/Chromosomes coil Synapsis (pairing) occurs Tetrads form & Crossing over occurs centrioles spindle fiber aster fibers TETRAD
Genetic Recombination Tetrad nonsister chromatids chiasmata: site of crossing over variation
Metaphase I Homologous chromosomes line up in the middle. Independent assortment occurs – chromosomes separate randomly
Anaphase I Homologous chromosomes pull apart. Sister chromatids remain attached
Telophase I Each nucleus has haploid set of chromosomes. Cytokinesis occurs & two haploid daughter cells are formed.
Sister Chromatids Separate MEIOSIS II Sister Chromatids Separate Meiosis II
Meiosis II No Interphase II No DNA Replication Meiosis II is similar to mitosis
Prophase II Same as Prophase in mitosis Chromosomes condense & Spindle forms
Metaphase II Same as Metaphase in mitosis Chromosomes line up in the middle
Anaphase II Same as Anaphase in mitosis SISTER CHROMATIDS pull apart
Telophase II Same as Telophase in mitosis. Nuclei reform CYTOKINESIS occurs. Final product of meiosis: FOUR HAPLOID daughter cells that are all genetically different Called GAMETES (eggs and sperm)
