Meosis And Genetics Flashcards
Meiosis
Creation of generic variety and begins with a diploid cell
Prophase 1
Cross over genetic exchange of chromosomes
Metaphase 1
Chromosomes line up at the equator middle two x’s
Anaphase 1
Chromosome are pulled away by spindle fibers on the needs of outer cell
Telophase 1
Ending with the separation of two new cells or cytokinesis
Prophase 2
Spindle fibers begin to form, but no exchange
Metaphase 2
Chromosomes line up in the middle in one single file lime
Anaphase 2
Chromatids are chromosomes pulled away by spindle fibers
Telophase 2
Ending meiosis, two cells divide into four cells or haploid cells
Dominant allele
Capital letter (L)
Recessive allele
Lower case letter (l)
Homozygous dominant
Two capital letters
Homozygous recessive
Two lower case letters
Phenotype
Physical characteristics
Heterozygous
One upper case, one lower case letter
