PPT-Meiosis (Ch 11.4) Background

Meiosis Ch 114 Background Chromosome package form of DNA in a cell Genes genetically inherited traits Genes normally have two alleles per gene there are some exceptions like ABO blood type. (making sperm and eggs…). We. ’. re NOT talking about making babies, we. ’. re talking about making the CELLS that make babies – eggs and sperm! . Eggs and sperm are GAMETES.. Gamete = sex cells (. Reduction Division. Mike Clark, M.D.. Meiosis. Meiosis is nicknamed reduction division. It is a process where a cell divides (division) but reduces the genetic material to ½ (reduction) . This type of cell division occurs in the gametes (sex cells). Chromosome number. Phases of meiosis. Meiosis and genetics. Gamete formation. Comparing mitosis and meiosis. Chromosome number. A cell in adult . drosphilia. (fruit fly) has 8 chromosomes, 4 of which came from the fly’s male parent, and 4 of which came from the fly’s female parent.. IB Biology. Cell Cycle. Mitosis. Prophase . Metaphase. Anaphase. Telophase. Lung Cancer. Meiosis. Mitosis vs. Meiosis. Crossover . Karyotype. Trisomy. Monosomy. Meiosis. The process that produces haploid sex cells.. Cells go through 2 rounds of division, called meiosis I and meiosis II. Each division has 4 phases (. similar to . mitosis). Creates 4 haploid cells from 1 diploid cell. Chapter 12. Outline. Introduction. Asexual. Sexual Reproduction. The Phases of Meiosis. Division I. Division II. Alternation . of Generations. Introduction. Asexual . Reproduction . - . p. roduction . Take out a piece of paper and write for two minutes what makes you unique . . Human. Cat. Shrimp. Bean. Before Meiosis. Chromosome. number (haploid or diploid?. 46. ?. ?. ?. Number of pairs of homologous. Gametes. ________ are sex cells. . Haploid. The daughter cells produced at the end of meiosis II are considered- diploid or haploid?. Genetically DIFFERENT!. What is the genetic relationship of daughter cells to each other in meiosis?. 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?. Please take out your science journal and outcomes and turn in any missing work to the WIRE basket. Thank you!. . Asexual Reproduction Review. Happens in almost all cells (Somatic cells). 1 parent cell. Image from about.com . meiosis_metaphase_1.jpg. . Mutations. (changes in an organism’s DNA) are the . original. . source of . all. genetic variation. Mutations create different versions of genes called . 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.. DON. ’. T EAT THE CANDY!!!!!! . Yet. Om nom nom.. Lab Procedure. You will be doing a lab which will take you through the phases of . Meiosis, using the candy as parts of the cell!. ! . What are the phases of Meiosis?. 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.
