Genetic Variation in Sordaria Finicola Introduction: The purpose of the Sordaria Lab was to explore the affects of genetic variation caused by meiosis and to record how sexual reproduction] affects the amount of crossing over in certain strains of Sordaria Fimicola. These organisms are ascomycetes and are also known as sac fungi. This is because the shape of their asci is in the form of a sac; inside each sac there are structures called ascospores. It is these structures‚ ascospores‚ where genetic

new cells that are made then get destroyed because the number of chromatids is uneven. Also‚ the cell might have a non-disjunction due to wrong number of chromosome in new cell. Part 4: Post- Lab Question When is DNA replicated during meiosis? DNA is replicated during the S phase of Interphase. Are homologous pair of chromosome exact copies of each other? Yes because Homologous chromosomes are two chromosomes. One inherited from the mother‚ one from the father. They have the same length

Effects of Crossing Over in Sordaria fimicola Abstract Sexual reproduction in organisms is a cause for genetic variation. This can be seen through the process of meiosis in Sordaria fimicola because of the effects of crossing over and independent assortment that occur in meiosis I. Before performing this experiment we hypothesized that we would be able to see that crossing over did indeed occur in the S. fimicola. We tested our hypothesis by growing our own culture and observing it under a

Meiosis is a type of cell division that is used for sexual reproduction. It creates the egg and the sperm cells. Meiosis begins with a parent cell (diploid)‚ which contains two copies of each chromosome. The cell then goes through DNA copying and two cycles of cell division‚ also known as Meiosis I and Meiosis II. When the cell goes through this cycle‚ it creates four haploid‚ which means they contain half of the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. Meiosis I begins with Prophase I. In Prophase

The lab experiment examined meiosis and genetic diversity through the model organism‚ Sordaria fimicola. Meiosis is part of the sexual life cycle and occurs in all sexually reproducing organisms. It is a method of cell division that produces gametes. Meiosis has two parts: meiosis I and meiosis II. Both parts undergo the same four stages of prophase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase‚ and telaphase. The process begins with one single parent diploid cell (that contain homologous chromosomes) that divides into

place in their ovaries. About 4 million oocytes have formed in a women body by the time one of the oocyte is created. About 1 million oocytes will linger and the other ones are excluded by apoptosis. Meiosis 1 and Meiosis 2 are secondary oocytes. The first meiosis forms an enormous secondary meiosis‚ and a miniature polar body receives a slight more than a single set of chromosome. There is a matter of chance to determine which chromosome would conclude the egg and the polar body. For females function

D’Juan McPherson May 5‚ 2011 BIO 100 CheckPoint: Mitosis and Meiosis Mitosis and meiosis are both important to a living organism because they represent cell divisions that are very important to every living organism because without cell division all living organisms would fail to reproduce‚ eventually dying out. Cell division plays a very important role in the life cycle of a cell. Mitosis and meiosis are important to living organism because they help living organisms to grow‚ develop‚ and

Jamae Gordoncillo Professor Vacura BIO 101 – Lab 31 October 2014 Cell Division Mitosis Abstract Mitosis and Meiosis: Cells can be divided in unicellular organisms or in multi-cellular organisms. DNA controls the cell division. Bacteria reproduce by a process called binary fission. Bacteria have one chromosome that’s attached to the cell membrane. The chromosome replicates and the two copies separate as the cell grows. Over a period of time this one cell makes two cells. Eukaryotes do the process

North Facing Side (NFS). This extreme sun exposure causes the South slope to have drought and arid conditions whereas the North side has more temperate conditions and is shady and humid. The model‚ Sordaria fimicola‚ reproduces through the process of Meiosis and their chromosomes cross over in Prophase I (Stern). S. fimicola have different crossover frequencies between the slopes in Evolution Canyon; there are higher crossover frequencies on the SFS compared to the NFS. One possible explanation of this
