Q

***** Meisos does 3 things NAME THEM

A
  1. reduce chromosome number (diploid to haploid/ 2n to n)
  2. orderly (makes sure each haploid produces the right set of chromosomes)
  3. creates genetic diversity

Q

**** why is genetic diversity important?

A

gives organism a leg iup in a changing environment
EXAMPLE
if we are all clones and had the same genes IF a deadly disease was to come in and we lack resistance WE ALL DIE
BUT because we are all differently genetically coded @ least ONE of us could SURVIVE the deadly disease
SO we don’t all go extinct

Q

Meiosis 1 takes a ____ cell with replicated _____ and turning it into #__ ____ cells with duplicated _____

A

diploid chromsomes
2 haploid chromsomes

18
Q

After meiosis 1 ______ #__ happens , what happens in this process?

A

meiosis 2
the splitting of the 2 haploid cells….. so the haploid cell divides the sister chromatid to then form 4 HAPLOID CELLS

19
Q

***before meiosis 1 starts the cell goes through a stage called ___ phase where it makes?

A

S
copies of its DNA
so each chromosomes is duplicated so there are 2 identical parts called sister chromatids for each chrosomoe

20
Q

****during meiosis 1 the _____ _______ pairs (1 from mom and 1 from dad) are ______ into _____ cells. (takes diploid cell to haploid cell)
the result of meiosis 1 is #__ _____ cells with ___ the number of OG chromosomes

A

homogoulous chromosomes
seperated separate
2 haploid
half

21
Q

what step in Meiosis is DNA ____ and the _____ start to move to opposite poles

A

early prophase 1
loose
centrosomes

22
Q

in _____-_____ 1 DNA ____ so it is easier to ____

A

mid prophase
condenses
drag

23
Q

what phase in meiosis? does after chromosomes are condensed into packets , the #___ _____ (2 chromosomes) that make up the homologous pair will _____ (come together) to form a ____

A

prophase 1
4 chromatids
snuggle
tetrad

24
Q

**in last prophase 1- pro-metaphase an event happens called _____ ___ so you have #___ ____ chromosomes that formed the _____
**
*During this phase the ____-____ _____ will cross over one another at an area called ___ (gap/space)

A

crossing over
2 homologous pairs
tetrad
non-sister chromatids
chiasmata

25
Q

______ _____ is the exchange of DNA between #__ ____-_____ _____ so that the genetic material of mom and dad EXCHANGE!

A

crossing ober
2 non sister chromatids

26
Q

crossing over means the chrosmomes are ____ longer the ___ as they were before this event ,, this makes them different from their ____ and ______’s ______

A

NO SAME
parents and parent’s offspring

27
Q

so the ____ that have experienced crossing over are now called _____ ____

A

chromatids
recombinant chromatids

28
Q

_______ chromatids are no longer copies of their sisters :(

A

recombinant

29
Q

_____ _____ is the perfect example of the increases of genetic diversity in the products!!!

A

crossing over

30
Q

what phase in meiosis does the pair of chromosomes line up on ____ _____ of the equator [MIDDLE]

A

metaphase 1
either side

31
Q

what kind process is metaphase 1

A

RANDOM

32
Q

during what phase in meiosis do the ______ _______ seperated into separate cells (diploid to haploid) [APART]

A

anaphase 1
homologous pairs

33
Q

the way genetic material is exchanged in 2 chromosomes when they line up is _______ this means the chromosomes are _______ ________

A

RANDOM
independent assortment

34
Q

what does it means when independent assortment allows for chance combinations

A

because homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed into daughter cells when the pairs of chromosomes line up and separate the way one chromosome seperated DOES NOT affect how another pair seperates …. this means each gamete can have mix of chromosomes from both parents leading to genetic divert in offspring

35
Q

what phase in meiosis do chromosomes finish moving, DNA ______, and the ______ ____ reappears and finally _____ finishes it off

A

telephone 1
decondenses
nuclear envelope
cytokinesis

36
Q

at the end of meiosis 1 there are #___ _____ cells and the _____ within these cells are still _____ (so 2 chromatids)

A

2 haploid
chromosomes replicated

37
Q

in Meiosis 2 what happens to DNA

A

DNA DOES NOT REPLICATE

38
Q

in meiosis there is NO ______ between meiosis 1 and meiosis 2

A

interphase

39
Q

in meisois 2 _____ _____ of each chromosome are seperated

A

sister chromatids

40
Q

what is the whole purpose of meiosis 2

A

so that the sister chromatics are seperated so that the DNA is no longer replicated in each cell

41
Q

meiosis 2 allows for more ____ by the chance assorment

A

diversity

42
Q

the final products of meiosis 2 is?

A

4 daughter haploid cells
