meiosis

?
haploid
half the chromosomes (egg and sperm)
1 of 17
diploid
full amount of chromosomes
2 of 17
gametes
haploid made by meiosis
3 of 17
stages of meiosis
prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, telophase 1, prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2, telophase 2.
4 of 17
prophase 1
chromatin condenses; bivalents form; chiasmata; crossing over occurs
5 of 17
metaphase 1
bivalents line up along equator; chiasmata still present, random assortment of chromosomes.
6 of 17
anaphase 1
independent segregation (homologous pairs pulled to opposite poles); centromeres dont divide; chismata seperate.
7 of 17
telophase 1
animals - 2 nuclear envelopes form and cell divides by cytokinesis making 2 haploid cells. plant - skips this stage
8 of 17
prophase 2
nuclear envelope breaks down; centrioles replicate; chromosomes condense; spindle fibres form at right angles to axis in 1.
9 of 17
metaphase 2
random assortment of chromatids on spindle equator
10 of 17
anaphase 2
centromeres divide; chromatids pulled to opposite poles; chromatids randomly segregate.
11 of 17
telophase 2
nuclear envelope reforms creating 4 haploid cells.
12 of 17
4 types of mutation
inversion, deletion, translocation, non-disjunction
13 of 17
inversion
part of the chromosome turns 180*
14 of 17
deletion
part of the chromosome is lost
15 of 17
translocation
a section of the chromosome become attatched to another
16 of 17
non-disjunction
homologous chromosomes fail to seperate propelry during meiosis 1 or chromatids fail to seperate at meiosis 2.
