Q

what happens in the first cell division (MEIOSIS I)

Q

what happens in second cell division(meiosis II)

Q

What are the 4 phases of MEIOSIS I?

A

PROPHASE I
METAPHASE I
ANAPHASE I
TELOPHASEI

18
Q

which stage of meiosis I occupies 90% of the meiosis?

A

PROPHASE I

19
Q

what happens in PROPHASE I

A

Chromosome condenses, synapsis ,crossing over, tetrad formation

20
Q

how Many chiasmata does each tetrad has?

A

one or more

21
Q

what happens in METAPHASE I?

A

tetrads lined up along the mid-region (metaphase plate)

22
Q

In what phase of meiosis I does homologous chromosome separate?

A

Anaphase I

23
Q

What happens in ANAPHASE I of meiosis I?

A

homologous chromosome separate, move to the opposite poles with the help of spindle apparatus

24
Q

what happens at beginning of telophase 1?

A

each half of cell-haploid set of chromosomes, each chromosome still has 2 sister chromaticds

25
Q

how does cytokinesis occurs in meiosis I?

A

simultaneously of telophase 1: forming 2 haploid daughter cells

26
Q

formation of what takes place in animal and plant cells during cytokinesis?

A

animal cells-cleavage furrow formation
plant cells-cell plate formation

27
Q

no __________ occurs b/w end of meiosis i and beginning of meiosis ii because the chromosomes are already ______?

A

chromosome replication, replicated

28
Q

PLOIDY?

A

Number of set of chromosomes
Haploid=n
diploid=2n=homozygous chromosomes

29
Q

haploid number of chromosomes in the human body?

A

gametes

30
Q

when is a replicated chromosome formed?

A

when.a single chromosome undergoes DNA synthesis

31
Q

What is a genotype?

A

genetic makeup of an individual cell or organism

32
Q

is DNA duplicated during meiosis I?

A

no, interphase

33
Q

where does meiosis occurs in animals or humans?

A

production of gametes
ovary or testes

34
Q

What happens in prometaphase II?

A

Nuclear envelope starts disntegrating,spindle microtubules attach to the centromere

35
Q

what processes take place in TELOPHASE I?

A

replicated chromosomes arrive at pole and begin to uncoil,nuclear envelope reappears, spindle apparatus disappears, cytokinesis begins.

36
Q

Does DNA replication occurs in MEIOSIS II?

A

no

37
Q

is their s phase between meiosis I AND II

A

NO

38
Q

What is interkinesis

A

interphase like stage that occurs between meiosis I and II unlike interphase it has no DNA replication and is for a very short period of time.

39
Q

are the sister chromatid in metaphase II genetically identical or variable?why or why not?

A

genetically variable because of crossing over in MEIOSIS I

40
Q

What is the end result of meiosis II?

A

4 daughter cells, each with a haploid set of unreplicated chromosomes

41
Q

what are the 3 events unique in meiosis than mitosis?

A

1.synapsis and crossing over in prophase I-physically connect and exchange genetic info
2.at the metaphase plate their are homologous chromosomes(tetrads) instead of individual replicated chromosomes(sister chromatids)
3.at anaphase I, homologous chromosomes instead of sister chromatids that are separated and carried out to diff poles.

42
Q

what is meiosis II similar with?

A

Mitosis
