Find someone with the opposite color paper.
Use your notes to come with anything you remember about mitosis: Purpose What you start with, what you end up with Are the daughter cells identical to or different from the parent cells? 4 phases? What happens in them (keep it simple) Mitosis Review First!
2
Meiosis
3
What differences do you notice?
Asexual Sexual 46 23 46 46 46
4
2 Types of Reproduction 1. Asexual
One parent produces genetically identical offspring Ex: Body cells (during mitosis) & bacteria No genetic diversity! 2. Sexual Two parents produce genetically different offspring through fertilization Uses meiosis – type of cell division used to create gametes (egg & sperm) Produces genetic variation
5
Budding Binary Fission
6
Genetic Variation (diversity)
Differences in DNA = differences in our traits Need variation If habitat changes, populations are more likely to survive if traits/skills are varied
7
Haploid (n or 1n) Haploid (n) – cell that has 1 set of chromosomes
n = # of chromosomes Gametes/sex cells (egg & sperm) are haploid chromosomes Meiosis- type of cell division used to make haploid cells
8
Haploid
9
Haploid vs. DIploid
10
Haploid vs. diploid Diploid (2n)
- cell that contains 2 sets or pairs of chromosomes (1 from mom and dad) Referred to as 2n 2x haploid #
11
Contains homologous pairs of chromosomes Analogy- like pairs of shoes
Somatic (body) cells are diploid 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs Contains homologous pairs of chromosomes Analogy- like pairs of shoes
12
DIploid
13
Homologous Chromosomes
Pairs of chromosomes that are the same size, shape and gene pattern Made of 2 chromatids They are NOT identical one from each parent Ex: 2 Chromosome 10’s
16
C4U
17
Why Meiosis? Purpose: Sexual reproduction (make gametes) and to create genetic diversity/variation Location: Reproductive organs/cells Produces: 4 genetically unique, haploid (gametes) Variation from crossing over (prophase I) & independent assortment (metaphase I)
18
Process of Meiosis Meiosis occurs in 2 rounds- Meiosis 1 and meiosis 2
Before Meiosis I, DNA replication occurs Human cell: Normally 23 pairs 46 pairs before Meiosis starts (92 total) McGraw Hill Animation
19
Meiosis I Purpose: To create genetic diversity variation and reduce chromosome number in half
20
Meiosis I – Prophase I Synapsis occurs – when homologous chromosomes line up next to each other forming tetrads Tetrads- pair of homologous chromosomes ( 4 chromatids) (2n)
21
Remember! Chromatid = ½ of a chromosome
22
Meiosis I – Prophase I Crossing over occurs – exchange genetic info by exchanging matching sections of chromatids This produces genetic diversity and unique chromatids (2n) Crossing Over CC 4-6:30
24
Tetrads vs homologous chromosomes
X Homologous chromosome - 2 chromatids
25
This again causes genetic diversity
Metaphase I Independent assortment occurs – when the tetrads line up randomly at metaphase plate This again causes genetic diversity Independent assortment
27
Tetrads separate to opposite ends of cell
Anaphase I Tetrads separate to opposite ends of cell
28
Telophase I Cell splits into 2 diploid cells
Remember we started with 46 pairs (92 total) chromosomes now we have 23 pairs (46 total) in each cell The cells are NOT identical – Why??
29
Why do we still need meiosis II?
Because the chromosomes are still replicated sister chromatids (46 chromosomes) . We need individual chromatids in gametes
31
Answer these questions in notebook
1. What’s the purpose or result of meiosis? 2. When does independent assortment occur? 3. When does crossing over occur? 4. How does meiosis introduce genetic diversity? 5. What has to happen before meiosis can occur?
33
Meiosis II The 2 diploid cells are divided- like mitosis
Produces: 4 haploid cells, each containing a single copy of each chromosome Those haploid cells are the egg & sperm cells
34
Meiosis II – Prophase II
No crossing over Sister chromatids are still replicated Nuclear membrane disappears again
35
Metaphase II Sister chromatids line up at metaphase plate
36
ANAphase II Sister chromatids separate
37
TeloPHASE II McGraw Hill Animation Cells split, producing 4 genetically unique haploid daughter cells
38
Meiosis I vs. Meiosis II During Meiosis I _____________________
divide. During Meiosis II _____________________ divide Metaphase 1 Anaphase 1 Homologous chromosomes Sister chromatids Metaphase 2 Anaphase 2
39
Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
40
Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis C4U
Produces identical daughter cells, produces unique daughter cells, occurs in eukaryotic cells, two round of cell division, one round of cell division, occurs in multi-cellular organisms, produces haploid cells, produces diploid cells, produces body cells, produces gametes, is a multi-step process, involves crossing-over and independent assortment
41
Produces identical daughter cells, (MT)
occurs in multi-cellular organisms, (B) produces haploid cells, (MS) produces diploid cells, (MT) produces body cells, (MT) produces gametes, (MS) is a multi-step process, (B) involves crossing-over and independent assortment (MS) Produces identical daughter cells, (MT) produces unique daughter cells, (MS) occurs in eukaryotic cells, (B) two round of cell division, (MS) one round of cell division, (MT)
42
Mutations in Meiosis Do mutations in body cells have an effect on the offspring? How about in sex cells? Explain. Body cells only affect cells produced from mitosis from this cell Sex cells Used to make offspring; mutations are passed on
43
Are most of the genetic differences in the world attributed to mutations or shuffling DNA in meiosis?
44
This picture shows a type of mistake that can occur during meiosis.
On your paper write down what you think is happening.
45
This can result in gametes that have too many or too few chromosomes.
Non-disjunction is an error during meiosis in which the chromosomes fail to separate properly. This can result in gametes that have too many or too few chromosomes. Step-through Mistakes in Meiosis Animation
46
Nondisjunction can be detected through a Karyotype.
A Karyotype is - a picture of one’s 46 chromosomes. It allows us to detect abnormal numbers of chromosomes as well as chromosomal mutations.
47
Healthy Female: 46 chromosomes XX
Healthy Male: 46 chromosomes XY
48
Down Syndrome Trisomy 21- 3 copies of the chromosome 21
47 total chromosomes instead of 46 Caused by nondisjunction Effects: Characteristic facial features, heart defects, susceptibility to leukemia & Alzheimer’s Varying degrees of intellectual disability
49
Klinefelter’s Males with extra X chromosome Reduced facial & body hair
Breast enlargement Infertility Some learning disabilities and difficulty with speech
50
Jacob’s Syndrome Males with extra Y chromosome Taller than average
Learning or speech difficulties Weaker bones or muscles
51
Turner’s syndrome Female with only 1X chromosome Short height
Lack hormones for menstruation and breast growth Infertility Drooping eye lids, low hair line Kidney & heart problems, diabetes
53
Mitosis Meiosis Purpose Takes place in… Produces how many cells?
What happens to chromosome number? How do parents and daughter cells differ genetically? Variation between daughter cells?
