1 AP Biology Lecture #23 Meiosis

2 Preparing for meiosis 1st step of meiosis Duplication of DNA
Why bother? meiosis evolved after mitosis convenient to use “machinery” of mitosis DNA replicated in S phase of interphase of MEIOSIS (just like in mitosis) 2n = 6 single stranded 2n = 6 double stranded M1 prophase

3 Meiosis 1 1st division of meiosis separates homologous pairs synapsis
single stranded 1st division of meiosis separates homologous pairs 2n = 4 double stranded prophase 1 synapsis 2n = 4 double stranded metaphase 1 tetrad reduction 1n = 2 double stranded telophase 1 Repeat after me! I can’t hear you!

4 Prophase I Metaphase I Centrosome (with centriole pair) Centromere
Fig. 13-8b Prophase I Metaphase I Centrosome (with centriole pair) Centromere (with kinetochore) Sister chromatids Chiasmata Spindle Metaphase plate Figure 13.8 The meiotic division of an animal cell Homologous chromosomes Fragments of nuclear envelope Microtubule attached to kinetochore

5 During metaphase, chromosomes line up in PAIRS, but they line up randomly.  This picture shows all the different possible arrangements for an organism with 6 chromosomes. This is called INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT

6 Telophase I and Cytokinesis
Fig. 13-8c Telophase I and Cytokinesis Anaphase I Sister chromatids remain attached Figure 13.8 The meiotic division of an animal cell Homologous chromosomes separate Cleavage furrow

7 4 Meiosis 2 2nd division of meiosis separates sister chromatids
double stranded prophase 2 What does this division look like? 1n = 2 double stranded metaphase 2 1n = 2 single stranded telophase 2 4

8 Telophase II and Cytokinesis
Fig. 13-8d Telophase II and Cytokinesis Prophase II Metaphase II Anaphase II Sister chromatids separate Haploid daughter cells forming Figure 13.8 The meiotic division of an animal cell

9 Steps of meiosis Meiosis 1 Meiosis 2 interphase prophase 1 metaphase 1
anaphase 1 telophase 1 Meiosis 2 prophase 2 metaphase 2 anaphase 2 telophase 2 1st division of meiosis separates homologous pairs (2n  1n) “reduction division” 2nd division of meiosis separates sister chromatids (1n  1n) * just like mitosis *
