Using well labelled diagrams create 2‚ 2 fold leaflets outlining the stages of Mitosis and Meiosis. You need to create one leaflet for each (P2). 1b Using well labelled diagrams explain how the behaviour of chromosomes during meiosis leads to variation. In this report you must explain crossing over and independent assortment (P4). (Max 500 words) 1c Create a table comparing mitosis and meiosis (P2). Task 2 2 Carry out practical investigations to record stages of cell division

Title: Mitosis and Meiosis Abstract: There are two types of nuclear division‚ mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is usually used for the growth and replacement of somotaic cells‚ while meiosis produces the gametes or spores used in an organism’s reproduction. Hypothesis: Mitosis occurs in whitefish blastula and onion root tip‚ and it is easily observable. Meiosis and crossing over occurs in the production of gametes and spores. Materials: This lab required prepared slides of whitefish blastula

Kristian Gelfo 1. List and describe the phases of Meiosis 1. A: Metaphase I - Paired homologues move to the center of equator of the cell. Anaphase I - The homologues seperate from each other and get moved to opposite poles by kinteochores. Telophase I - Spindle microtubules dissappear‚ cytokinesis occurs‚ and the nuclear envelope reappears. 2. Describe homologue pairing and crosing over. At which stage of meiosis do they occur? A: When two homologous chromosomes come together before

nucleus in cytokinesis (Simon‚ Reece‚ & Dickey‚ 2010). Meiosis is the splitting up of germ cells‚ with each possessing half the number of & Dickey‚ 2010). Meiosis is sexual and has 2 nuclear and cytoplasmic divisions. However‚ one must remember they both are preceded by Interphase. Meiosis produces haploid‚ diploid‚ and gametes cells. The gamete cells are known as sex cells that occur in the reproductive organs‚ and meiosis has sex cells whereas mitosis does not (Simon‚ Reece‚ & Dickey

Meiotic Mysteries By: Karen Schindler In class we went over the cycle of meiosis‚ the sexual life cycle‚ and its stages. Meiosis has four stages which are‚ prophase I‚ metaphase I‚ anaphase I‚ and telophase I. In an adult before ovulation the oocyte goes back to meiosis forming a meiotic spindle of microtubules to segregate homologous chromosomes. When it reaches fertilization‚ the egg itself undergoes a second round of division segregating sister chromatids. Which is Prophase II‚ Metaphase II

hormones: FSH and LH in the membranes of follicle cells FSH: • Development of oocyte in the follicle • Thickening of follicle wall • Secretion of follicular fluid • Secretion of estrogens by follicle wall LH: • Completion of meiosis in the oocyte • Partial digestion of follicle wall to allow it to open (ovulation) • Growth of the corpus luteum

W4Q1 Meiosis is the process by which cells divide and create living creatures. Without meiosis we cannot have the process of mitosis‚ which is the process by which cells of tissue are created for living creatures. When meiosis occurs 4 daughter cells are created‚ while only 2 are created in mitosis. With the creation of 2 daughter cells the new cells will be similar to the parent cell‚ but will have differences‚ as there more parent cells involved. When mitosis occurs the daughter cells will be

an ascomycete fungus that can be used to demonstrate the results of crossing over during meiosis. Sordaria is a haploid organism for most of its life cycle. It becomes diploid only when the fusion of the mycelia of two different strains results in the fusion of the two different types of haploid nuclei to form a diploid nucleus. The diploid nucleus must then undergo meiosis to resume its haploid state. Meiosis‚ followed by mitosis‚ in Sordaria results in the formation of eight haploid ascospores contained
