wk5?+Mutation, Genetic Variation, Gametogenesis, ERRORS IN CELL CYCLE Flashcards
- are the original source of genetic diversity
- create different versions of genes called alleles
- reshuffling of alleles during sexual reproduction produces genetic variation
MUTATION
True or false? hays pagod na ba kau? same p
Homologous pairs of chromosomes orient randomly at metaphase I of meiosis kaya may genetic variation
TRUE SO MUCH!!!
in ___________ __________, each pair of chromosomes sorts maternal and paternal homologs into daughter cells INDEPENDENTLY(clue toh) of the othe pairs
INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT
the number of combinations possible when chromosomes assort independently into gametes is 2^n (n is the haploid number)
so for humans 2^?
2^23!! so more than 8 million possible combinations of chromosomes
- produces recombinant chromosomes which combine genes inherited from each parent
- begins every early in prophase I as homologous chromosomes pair up gene by gene
CROSSING OVER
contributes to genetic variation by combining DNA from two parents into a single chromosome
CROSSING OVER
homologous portions of two nonsister chromatids trade places
CROSSING OVER
adds to genetic variation because any sperm can fuse any ovum
RANDOM FERTILIZATION
_______ _________ results in the accumulation of genetic variations favored by the environment
NATURAL SELECTION
means formation of gametes (sperm and ova)
GAMETOGENESIS
the process of development of spermatids from the male primordial germ cells and their differentiation into spermatozoa
SPERMATOGENESIS
- formation of female gametes
- differentiation of female primordial germ cell (oogonium) into mature ovum
OOGENESIS
3 MAIN PHASES OF SPERMATOGENESIS AND OOGENESIS
- Period of MULTIPLICATION
- Period of GROWTH
- Period of MATURATION
the primordial germ cells multiply by mitotic cell division giving rise to OOGONIA(females) and SPERMATOGONIA(males)
PERIOD OF MULTIPLICATION
During these phase, both oogonia and spermatogonia grow into primary oocyte or primary spermatocyte
PERIOD OF GROWTH
in females, the primary oocyte undergoes two meiotic cell divisions:
1. gives rise to secondary oocyte + polar body
2. gives rise to mature ova and secondary polar body
PERIOD OF MATURATION
- male sex gland, located in scrotum
- produces sperm and androgens
TESTIS
sperm storage, complete of sperm maturation
EPIDIDYMIS
duct that transports the sperm from the scrotum to the prostate gland
VAS DEFERENS
secretes fluid rich in fructose to semen
SEMINAL VESICLE
