11012 What can go wrong during meiosis What can go wrong during meiosis Nondisjunction The failure of homologous chromosomes or nonsister chromatids to separate during anaphase I or anaphase II. EQ:. What is the importance of meiosis in providing genetic variation?. . SPECIALIZED CELLS. You have many specialized cells in your body that can be divided into two groups. . 1. . . SOMATIC. = body cells; make up most of your . Dr. . Debbie Payne, Ruth H. Liddell, Shirley K. Scarbrough. Alabama State University, Math, Science Partnership, . Summer 2013. CROSSING OVER. When does it occur?. Why is it important?. Meiosis in Lily. Each organism must inherit a single copy of every gene from each of its “parents.”. Gametes. are formed by a process that separates the two sets of genes so that each gamete ends up with just one set.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJzZ7p-47P8&feature=related. . State that meiosis is a reduction division of a diploid nucleus to form a haploid . nulcei. .. Define homologous chromosomes. Outline the process of meiosis, including pairing of homologous chromosomes and crossing over, followed by two divisions, which . Chapter 12. Outline. Introduction. Asexual. Sexual Reproduction. The Phases of Meiosis. Division I. Division II. Alternation . of Generations. Introduction. Asexual . Reproduction . - . p. roduction . 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?. 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. Alleles segregate during meiosis allowing new combinations to be formed by the fusion of gametes. . Understandings:. One diploid nucleus divides by meiosis to produce four haploid nuclei. . The halving of the chromosome number allows a sexual life cycle with fusion of gametes. . 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. . Mistakes in Meiosis. Many genetic disorders can be traced back to . errors in formation of the gametes . in meiosis.
