23
Q

24
Q

Phases of Meiosis

A

Prophase, Metaphase, Telophase, Anaphase - P-MAT

25
Stages in prophase
Leptotene, Zygotene, Pachytene, Diplotene.
26
Resting phase of Prophase -
Diplotene
27
Unequal division of cytoplasm is seen in
Oogenesis - Meiosis 1
28
A cell without cytoplasm
Polar body
29
Meiosis 2 is arrested in
Metaphase
30
Meiosis 1 is arrested in
Prophase - Diplotene stage
31
Corpus luteum persists for
12-14 days
32
Shrunken Corpus luteum is called
Corpus albicans
33
Polar bodies are not formed in
Males - spermatogenesis
34
Polar bodies are formed in which division
Meiosis 1 and 2
35
Spermiogenesis
Rearrangement of organelles - formation of tail, acrosomal cap, Shedding of Excess cytoplasm
36
Rearrangement of organelles of Spermatid - formation of tail, acrosomal cap, Shedding of Excess cytoplasm
Spermiogenesis
37
Spermatid to spermatozoa is called as
Spermiogenesis
38
one primary spermatocyte forms
4 spermatids
39
One Spermatogonium forms how many Spermatozoa
64-512
40
Time taken for spermatogenesis to complete
74 days
41
IN males meiosis occurs in
Seminiferous tubules
42
Sperm maturation and motility is attained in
Epididymis
43
Capacitation of sperms occurs in
Female genital tract
44
Conditioning of sperms is called as
Capacitation.
45

46
Pluripotent cell - Example
PGC
47
Multipotent cell - Example
HSC, NSC, MSC.
48
Oligopotent cell - Example
