Gamete Formation Genetics

Human Gamete Formation Gametes are the sperm and egg Both haploid (n), meaning they have only one of each type of chromosome Produced through a special cell division called meiosis Somatic cells are diploid (2n) with 46 chromosomes; gametes have 23

Flowering Plant Gamete Production Ovule: a compartment inside the ovary where female gametes are produced Anther: where male gametes (pollen grains) are produced Gametes are always haploid; the zygote is always diploid

Gamete Formation

Meiosis Two divisions: goes through prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase twice In Meiosis I the pairs of chromosomes (and their copies) separate in anaphase In Meiosis II, the individual chromatids separate

Mitosis vs Meiosis

Gamete Formation Spermatogenesis begins with a germ cell called a spermatogonium Two divisions follow (meiosis I and II) End result is four haploid sperm

Spermatogenesis Sperm formation passes through these cell stages: Spermatogonium Primary spermatocyte Secondary spermatocyte Spermatid Mature sperm

Oogenesis Oogenesis begins with a diploid cell called a oogonium Two divisions follow (meiosis I and II) Result is 3 polar bodies and 1 mature ovum (egg)

Oogenesis

Oogenesis Ovum formation passes through the following cells stages: Oogonium Primary oocyte Secondary oocyte Ovum

Oogenesis At birth, a female has all the primary oocytes already formed Frozen in prophase I After puberty, meiosis continues with 1 or 2 oocytes each month Only complete meiosis if fertilized

4 Sperm; 1 Ovum

Variety: arrangement and crossing over

Fertilization

Twinning Dizygotic: two eggs and two sperm No more closely related than any siblings “Fraternal”

Twinning Monozygotic: one egg and sperm The embryo separates at an early stage and each continues normal development Genetically identical

Twinning Conjoined twins: a monozygotic pair that does not separate all the way May or may not share vital organs Most often, if separated, one lives and the other dies

Aging Genes control cell division and apoptosis, so aging is somewhat genetically regulated By about age 30, the body begins to decline Genes control aging both passively (structures break down, cells are not replaced) and actively (causing new activities)

Aging The disease progeria can give clues as to what causes aging In one type, the gene for helicase is altered. Helicase unzips the DNA for repair and replication. This enzyme is missing in progeria
