Q

Sypnasis occurs: homologous chromosomes come together to form TETRAD

18
Q

homologous chromosomes come together to form?

19
Q

Two chromosomes or four chromatids (sister and non sister chromatids)

20
Q

Pag pinagsama yung 2 sister chromatids anong mabubuo?

21
Q

Pair of chromosomes (maternal and paternal) that are similar in shape and sizes

A

Homologous chromosomes

22
Q

Homologous pairs

23
Q

Human have __ pairs of homologous chromosomes

A

23
22 pairs of autosomes
01 pair of sex chromosomes

24
Q

A method of organizing the chromosomes

25
Xx chromosomes
Female
26
Xy chromosomes
Male
27
In humans the sex chromosomes are the __ set
23rd
28
May occur between non sister chromatids at the chiasmata
Crossing over
29
Are the sites of crossing over
Chiasmata(chiasma)
30
Shortest phase
Metaphase 1
31
Tetrads allign on the metaphase plate
Metaphase 1
32
what is the formula in metaphase 1
n 2
33
In terms of independent assortment- how many different combinations of sperm could a human pale produce?
Human chromosomes: 2n= 46 n=23 2²³= 8 million combinations
34
Homologous chromosomes separate and move towards the poles
Anaphase 1
35
Sister chromatids remain attached at their centromere
Anaphase 1
36
Each pole now has haploid set of chromosomes
Telophase 1
37
Cytokinesis occurs and two haploid daughter cells are formed
Telophase 1
38
No more DNA replication
Meiosis II
39
Four haploid daughter cells produced
Telophase
40
What are the 3 sexual sources of genetic variation?
1. Crossing over (prophase 1) 2. Independent assortment (metaphase 1) 3. Random fertilization
41
VARIATION IS GOOOOD!!
omsim
42
Important to population as the raw material for?
Natural Selection
