Miosis and gentics

Question 1

Interphase

Answer 1

Chromosome replicate and chromatin condenses

Question 2

Prophase

Answer 2

the pairing of homologous chromosomes which condenses, they are bound together in a process called synapsis, which allows crossing over

Question 3

Crossing over

Answer 3

Chromosomal segments are exchanged between pairs of homologous chromosomes, producing an exchange of genetic information

Question 4

metaphase

Answer 4

chromosomes centromere attach to spindle fibers, homologous chromosomes line up as a pair at the equator

Question 5

Importance of Meiosis

Answer 5

It provides variation

Question 6

Asexual Reproduction
