Chapter 13: Meiosis Flashcards
1
Q
Meiosis I (reductional division)
A
Homologs pair up and separate, resulting in two haploid daughter cells with replicated chromosomes
2
Q
Prophase I
A
- synapsis
- crossing over
3
Q
synapsis
A
pairing up of homologous chromosomes, aligned gene by gene
4
Q
crossing over
A
nonsister chromatids exchange DNA segments
5
Q
Meiosis II (equational division)
A
Sister chromatids separate ….result is 4 haploid daughter cells with unreplicated chromosomes
