PPT-2005-2006 Meiosis & Sexual Reproduction

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. Chapter 12. Outline. Introduction. Asexual. Sexual Reproduction. The Phases of Meiosis. Division I. Division II. Alternation . of Generations. Introduction. Asexual . Reproduction . - . p. roduction . The . disadvantages and advantages of sexual . reproduction. CfE. . Advanced Higher Biology. Unit . 2: . Organisms and Evolution. SQA mandatory key information. Disadvantages of sexual reproduction – males unable to produce offspring, only half of each parent’s genome passed onto offspring. Benefits outweigh disadvantages due to increase in genetic variation in the population. . LECA=last eukaryotic common ancestor as distinct from LUCA (last universal com. . a. nc.). Probably had the ability to reproduce sexually…how do we know this??. Transition to a sexual LECA involved 4 and we will focus on 3 “transitions. Chapter 8. Asexual vs. Sexual reproduction. Asexual reproduction – new organisms/cells are genetically identical to parent cells/organisms . Sexual reproduction – offspring have a combination of genes from both parents. . 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. Chapter . 11. Genes and Development. Fig. 11.1. Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.. Haploid sperm. Haploid egg. Diploid zygote. Fertilization. Meiosis Terms . to Know:. Meiosis. : Cell division that produces gametes (sex cells/sperm & egg). These cells are used for sexual reproduction. They have . half . the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.. Key Concepts:. What happens during the process of meiosis?. How is meiosis different from mitosis?. Types of . Reproduction. Section 11-4. ASEXUAL. SEXUAL. 1. One Parent. 2. Binary fission (in prokaryotes) or mitosis in (eukaryotes).. 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 Where do you come from?. Sex: . Woman, XX. . Man, XY. Gender: Female Male. . Egg, Ovum Sperm. Fertilization – union of sperm an egg to produce zygote . Vocabulary. Somatic Cell. Gamete. Homologous Chromosomes. Diploid Cells ( 2n ). Haploid Cells ( n ). Normal body cell. Sex cell – sperm or egg. Matching pairs of chromosomes. Cells that have homologous chromosomes (somatic cells). 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. Let’s Review!. The cell cycle is when . a cell makes a copy of itself . for:. Growth, Repair, Replacement. BODY (autosomal/somatic) cells reproduce . by . mitosis. s. ome . organisms . do also, . but we will talk about that . 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.
