1
MEIOSIS Object: to study the meiosis through its subsequent developmental stages and discuss its Genetics Significant..
2
Meiosis Meiosis in males is called spermatogenesis and produces sperms. Meiosis in females is called oogenesis and produces ova. Two divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II).
3
MITOSIS Somatic cells MEIOSIS Cells in sexual cycle
1 cell division: 2 daughter cells 2n 2n MEIOSIS Cells in sexual cycle 2 cell divisions: 4 cells product of meiosis n n n 2n n n n n=chromosome number
4
definitions Homologous chromosomes: the members of a chromosome pair that is identical in the arrangement of genes
5
Homologous Chromosomes
eye color locus hair color Paternal Maternal
6
definitions Synapsis: (التشابك)
the intimate association ترابط وثيق)) of homologous chromosomes… Homologous chromosomes
7
definitions Crossing-over: (العبور)
a term describing the process of reciprocal chromosomal interchange by which recombinants arise
8
Crossing over Pairing of homologous chromosomes Chiasma formation
Breakage and joining Recombinant
9
MEIOSIS I Prophase I The longest phase. This phase can be divided into 5 stages; a) Leptotene b) Zygotene c) Pachytene d) Diplotene e) Diakinesis
10
Prophase I 1. Leptotene 2.Zygotene 3.Pachytene 4.Diplotene
5.Diakinesis Prophase I
11
Metaphase I Anaphase I Telophase I Prophase II Prophase I
12
Meiosis 2nd division: like mitosis with haploid set
13
4 Haploid cells Gametes
15
Mitosis vs Meiosis Mitosis Meiosis Results in 2 Diploid Cells (2N)
4 Haploid Cells (N) Cells are Genetically Identical Genetically Different Occurs in Somatic (Body) Cells Sex Cells
16
Slides for Meiosis I & II:

Final result Mitosis : two genetically identical diploid cells
from one diploid parent cell Meiosis : Four genetically different haploid cells from one diploid parent cell
