1 Meiosis

2 The Diploid Cell Cell with ___ sets of chromosomes
Contains chromosomes for each _________ pair __________ = Body Cells: Diploid All human cells except ___________ are diploid Where does the diploid number come from? ____, where n is the number of chromosomes an individual has What is n for humans? ______ 2n? ______

3 The Haploid Cell Cell containing ___ of each kind of chromosome
Examples: ___________________ ___ set of chromosomes _____ the number of chromosomes of diploid ___ Sperm + Egg = Zygote

4 Haploid = one of each kind Diploid = two of each kind
2n = diploid n = haploid + or

5 Mitosis vs. Meiosis Mitosis: t = two: Diploid n=46 Meiosis: o = one: Haploid n = 23

6 Meiosis __________ are produced in specialized body cells
Sperm and Egg Cells __ divisions: _______________________ Meiosis occurs in ____ cells, not _____ cells __ daughter cells Each cell has ____ the chromosomes of the parent

7 Meiosis I Interphase occurs: the cell grows and DNA replicates
Meiosis I begins Original cell produces two new cells Like Mitosis

8 Prophase I DNA Coils tightly into chromosomes Spindle fibers appear
Each chromosome lines up next to the homologue Synapis occurs: pairing of homologous chromosomes Tetrad: Each pair of homologous chromosomes

9 Crossing Over Crossing Over: why we do not look exactly like our parents. Portions of the ___________ breaks off and attaches to _______________ on the _____________ chromosome Permits __________________________ between maternal and paternal chromosomes Occurs during _____________

10

11 Genetic Recombination
Crossing over produces a new mixture of genetic material

12 Causes of Variation Chromosomes are assorted randomly
Crossing over may occur Cells do not have identical genetic info as each other or the parent + ____________________________ - _____________________________

13 Metaphase I Tetrads line up randomly along the mid-line
Spindle fibers attach to centromeres

14 Anaphase I Homologous chromosomes move to the opposite poles
Random separation or Independent Assortment results in separation of maternal and paternal chromosomes.

15 Telophase I Chromosomes reach opposite ends of cell Cytokinesis begins
Cell is now haploid

16 Meiosis II Occurs in each cell formed in Meiosis I
Interphase does not occur again

17 Prophase II Spindle fibers form and move the chromosomes to the mid-line of the dividing cell

18 Metaphase II Chromosomes move to the mid- line of the dividing cell facing opposite poles of the dividing cell

19 Anaphase II Chromatids separate and move to opposite poles of the cell

20 Telophase II Nuclear membrane forms around the chromosomes in each of 4 new cells

21 Cytokinesis II __________ divides ____________________ closes off

22 End Result: ____ new cells that contain _____ of the original cells number of chromosomes Creates _________ = _________

23 What exactly is a gamete?
Formed by ________ ___________________ cells In humans, meiosis occurs in the testes and ovaries

24 Meiosis Animation Meiosis Animation

25 Why do we need haploid gametes?
EGG 23 Female gamete Male gamete 23 SPERM

26 Fertilization restores the diploid number
meiosis 1n fertilization 2n 2n Mitosis and cell growth 2n

28 Mitosis vs. Meiosis Mitosis vs. Meiosis Animation Notes:

29 Nondisjunction Failure of ___________________ to ___________ properly during meiosis. __________________ of a homologous pair move to the ____________ of the cell. 1 gamete has ___________________ Or 1 gamete is ______________________

30 Nondisjunction Animation
Notes:

31 Chromosome Pop Quiz! What is a chromosome? Where do we find them?
What do they look like? How many pairs of chromosomes do humans have? What determines if someone is male or female?

32 Trisomy: Extra Chromosomes
Trisomy 13: Patau’s Syndrome Trisomy 21: Down’s Syndrome XXX: Trisomy X XYY: Jacob’s Syndrome XXY: Klinefelter’s Syndrome

33 Monosomy: Missing Chromosomes
Most do not survive. Turner XO : develop as girls, but infertile OY: lethal
