    Causes of Variation. Variation is a result that leads to a difference or deviation (for example‚ structure‚ form‚ function) from the recognised norm or standard. It is a modification in structure‚ form or function in an organism‚ deviating from other organisms of the same species or group. There are two types of variation: interspecific variation and intraspecific variation. Interspecific variation is when one species differs from another like mammals differ from fish. These differences are explained

    Interphase Prophase I Early Prophase I D.N.A coils tightly and individual chromosomes become visible as single structures Homologous chromosomes become associated in synapsis. Each pair of chromosome is called a bivalent. Centrioles divide and move to the opposite poles of the cell‚ and spindles start to form Late Prophase I The bivalents duplicate to form tetrads (four-chromatid groups).The nuclear membrane disintegrates. Chromosomes join at points called chiasmata where crossing over

    Mitosis and Meiosis I. These two processes function to pass chromosomes from one cellular generation to the next in a very carefully controlled manner. II. Mitosis and Meiosis are both correctly described as nuclear division; they are never correctly called cell division‚ or any kind of reproduction. It is possible (and often quite normal) for nuclei to divide when cells don’t. And organisms reproduce; nuclei and cells divide. III. Mitosis A. Mitosis is the division of a nucleus

    Mitosis and Meiosis When going over the cell cycle‚ mitosis and meiosis are two major components. Mitosis is the division of the cell’s nucleus‚ and is followed by cytokinesis. Cytokinesis is the division of cytoplasm. Mitosis is only one phase that a cell goes through in the cell cycle. Also the mitotic phase is one of the shortest phases. Mitosis can be broken down into five different stages; prophase‚ prometaphase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase‚ and telophase. In prophase the nucleoli starts to disappear

    Mitosis and Meiosis Purpose To understand the cell cycle and mitosis and how these two processes function within an organism. To understand meiosis and how this process produces gametes. Mitosis All cells in your body complete a cell cycle in which they grow‚ divide and‚ eventually‚ die. The cell cycle consists of four phases: G1‚ S‚ G2‚ and M (Figure 1). Each phase is associated with a specific cellular function: typically growth‚ synthesis‚ and division. The G1‚ S‚ and G2 phases comprise

    Prophase 1 of meiosis When prophase I occurs the chromosomal condensation enables the chromosomes to be looked at under the microscope. Then during late prophase I the homologous chromosomes laterally pair or usually side by side which is then known to be in synapsis this is when cross connections form from Breakage and re-joining between the chromatids which can occur between the pair homologous chromosomes which then lead to genetic combination between the strands which are there. Chiasma occurs
