HOMEWORK- D UE F RIDAY Take notes over chapter 10 in your STARR text. At least 3 bullet points per section One drawing per section There are 6 sections in this chapter so you should end up with 18 facts and 6 pictures. 2

W HY D O WE N EED M EIOSIS ? It is the fundamental basis of sexual reproduction Two haploid (1n) gametes are brought together through fertilization to form a diploid (2n) zygote Promotes genetic diversity (aka a better gene pool) 3
4
F ACTS A BOUT M EIOSIS Daughter cells contain half the number of chromosomes as the original cell (haploid/1n) Germ Cells- p roduce gametes Makes sperm in the testes in males spermatogenesis Makes eggs in the ovaries in females Oogenesis 4
5
M EIOSIS : T WO P ART C ELL D IVISION 5 Homologs separate Sister chromatids separate Haploid Meiosis I Meiosis II Diploid Haploid
6
F ERTILIZATION : P UTTING IT ALL TOGETHER 6 1n =3 2n = 6
7
R EPLICATION OF C HROMOSOMES Replication is the process of duplicating a chromosome Occurs prior to division Replicated copies are called sister chromatids Held together at centromere 7 Occurs in Interphase
8
A R EPLICATED C HROMOSOME 8 Homologs AKA Homologous pair Same genes, different alleles (versions of genes) Sister Chromatids Same genes, Same alleles Gene X Homologs separate in meiosis I and therefore different alleles separate. Gene: specific region of DNA that codes for a particular protein. Allele: any alternative form of a gene

T HE ORDER OF M EIOSIS Interphase Meiosis I PMAT C Meiosis II PMAT C Number of chromosomes In interphase the chromosome number duplicates 46x2 = 92 Meiosis I the chromosome number divides 92/2 = 46 Meiosis II the chromosome number divides again 46/2=23 9
10
M EIOSIS I: G ENETIC R ECOMBINATION 10 Nucleus Spindle fibers Nuclear envelope Early Prophase I (Chromosome number doubled from interphase) Late Prophase I Metaphase I Anaphase I Telophase I (haploid-only one chromosome type per cell)
11
P ROPHASE I 11 Early prophase Chromosomes condense. Spindle forms. Nuclear envelope fragments. Late prophase Homologs pair forming tetrad. Crossing over occurs
12
T ETRADS F ORM IN P ROPHASE I 12 Homologous chromosomes (each with sister chromatids) Join to form a TETRAD Synapsis = putting the tetrads together
13
C ROSSING -O VER Sister chromatids in a tetrad cross over each other Pieces of chromosomes or genes are exchanged Produces genetic recombination in the offspring These are called homologous chromosomes 13

C ROSSING -O VER 15
16
M ETAPHASE I 16 Homologous pairs (homologs) of chromosomes align along the equator of the cell
17
A NAPHASE I 17 Homologous pairs (homologs) separate and move to opposite poles. Sister chromatids remain attached at their centromeres.
18
T ELOPHASE I AND C YTOKINESIS 18 Nuclear envelopes reassemble. Spindle disappears. Cytokinesis divides cell into two. Each cell is now haploid
19
M EIOSIS II: R EDUCING C HROMOSOME N UMBER 19 Prophase II Metaphase II Anaphase II Telophase II 4 haploid cells
20
P ROPHASE II 20 Nuclear envelope fragments. Spindle forms. DNA is NOT replicated.
21
M ETAPHASE II 21 Chromosomes align along equator of cell.
22
A NAPHASE II 22 Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles. Equator Pole
23
T ELOPHASE II AND C YTOKINESIS 23 Nuclear envelope assembles. Chromosomes uncoil. Spindle disappears. Cytokinesis divides cell into two.
24
R ESULTS OF M EIOSIS 24 Gametes (egg & sperm) form Four haploid cells with one copy of each chromosome One allele of each gene Different combinations of alleles for different genes along the chromosome

26 G AMETOGENESIS
27
S PERMATOGENESIS Occurs in the testes Two divisions produce 4 spermatids Spermatids mature into sperm Men produce about 250,000,000 sperm per day 27
28
S PERMATOGENESIS 28
29
O OGENESIS Occurs in the ovaries Two divisions produce 3 polar bodies that are recycled and 1 large egg Polar bodies aren’t viable because of unequal division of cytoplasm Immature egg called oocyte Starting at puberty, one oocyte matures into an ovum (egg) every 28 days 29
30
O OGENESIS 30 Primary oocyte (diploid) Meiosis I Secondary oocyte (haploid) Meiosis II (if fertilization occurs) First polar body may divide (haploid) Polar bodies recycle Ovum (egg) (haploid) polar body a A X X a X A X a X a X Mature egg A X A X
