Document Summary

Homologous chromosomes - individual chromosomes that have been inherited from each parent and these homologous chromosomes may have different versions (or alleles)of the same genes at the specific loci for specific genes. The only cells in the human body that are not produced by mitosis are the gametes which are derived from specialized germ cells in the ovaries of females and the testes of males. The male parent will produce 4 haploid sperm cells from one sex cell. If gametes were produced by mitosis, offspring will be with double the chromosome number. Meiosis also allows for recombination of parental homologous chromosomes and therefore the production of unique and variable gametes. Meiosis has 2 stages, similar to mitosis, and leads to 2 cell divisions, producing 4 haploid daughter cells. Metaphase 1: bivalents will randomly arrange at a metaphase plate. Anaphase 1: synaptonemal complex breaks down and homologues migrate, homologues separate, but sister chromatids don"t.

Which statements pertaining to genetic variability are correct? Check all that apply (note that wrong answers will be deducted from right answers)!

Crossing over is defined by the exchange of chromosome pieces during metaphase one of meiosis.

If a germ cell (i.e. parent cell before meiosis) had only two pairs of homologous chromosomes (i.e. 4 chromosomes total) there are 2 possible combinations of maternal and paternal chromosomes in gametes.

Siblings produced by sexual reproduction are different because sperms are different from one another and eggs are different from one another, and the combination of an egg and sperm is basically unique.

Random fertilization means that all possible combinations of eggs and sperm are equally likely, i.e. it is pure chance which sperm fuses with which egg.

Individual chromosomes contain thousands of genes. This means that during each crossing over event, more than one gene is exchanged between paternal and maternal chromosomes.
