Meiosis is the cell division which produces the . sex cells . or . gametes. .. Meiosis occurs in the cells of the . reproductive organs. :. Sperm cells – testes. Ova (eggs) – ovaries. Pollen - anthers. Sexual Life Cycles. Which of the following transmits genes from both parents to child, or from one generation of a family to another?. DNA. gametes. somatic cells. mitosis. nucleotides. Which of the following transmits genes from both parents to child, or from one generation of a family to another?. Chapter 10. Overview of Meiosis. 10.1. Overview of Meiosis. Meiosis. - type of nuclear division that reduces the chromosome number from the diploid number to the haploid number.. Gametes. - reproductive cells. Mrs. Stewart. Biology I . Stewarts Creek High School. Objectives:. Differentiate between the process of mitosis and meiosis. Demonstrate the movement of chromosomes throughout meiosis. Analyze how meiosis leads to genetic variation. 1. Introductory Vocabulary. 2. Heredity. .  . t. he . transmission of traits from one generation to the next . Variation. .  when o. ffspring . differ somewhat from their parents and . siblings. Variations on a Theme. Living organisms are distinguished by their ability to reproduce their own kind. Heredity . is the transmission of traits from one generation to the next. Variation . is demonstrated by the differences in appearance that offspring show from parents and siblings. Review of Mitosis. Mitosis is a form of . asexual reproduction. This means that it . only requires 1 organism . (ex. Skin cells dividing). For growth and repair in . somatic. (body) cells!. Results in 2 cells identical to the original (parent) cell. 10.2 – Meiosis Sexual Reproduction Function: creates gametes (sperm, egg, pollen) for sexual reproduction . Meiosis: Cell division for sexual reproduction. Males - testes Females - ovaries Sex Cells Organisms that reproduce sexually are generally diploid: each cell contains two sets of chromosomes—a maternal chromosome set and a paternal chromosome set—one inherited from each parent. . . Google Images. Meiosis is the. . type of . cell division by which . germ cells . (eggs and sperm) . are produced. . One parent cell produces . four . daughter cells. . Daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes found in the parent cell. Cell division / Asexual reproduction. Mitosis. produce cells with same information. identical daughter cells. exact copies. clones. same amount of DNA . same number of chromosomes. same genetic information. Defined. : Gametes from two separate parents unite. Meiosis: Diploid (2n) to haploid (n) cells . Mechanism that allows for . genetic diversity. Many eukaryotes reproduce in this manner. Plants, animals and fungi.
