Document Summary

The costs and benefits of eukaryotic sex: constraints of eukaryotic sex. Necessary: diploid phases of life cycle, meiosis, union of haploid meiotic products ( syngamy or fertilization) Haplontic life cycles only diploid for one meiotic cell cycle. C. 1. a) haploid gametes join (syngamy) to make diploid zygote goes through meiosis becomes haploid spore goes through mitosis to make haplont (1n) Diplontic life cycles only haploid in gametes. C. 2. a) gametes combine (syngamy)into 2n zygote mitosis to form diplont (2n) Meiosis for the rest of the cycle to make 1n gametes. Haplodiplontic life cycle allow for extended periods of either plody alternation of generations. C. 3. a) 1n gametes form 2n zygote mitosis to make 2n diplont meiosis to make 1n spore mitosis to make 1n haplont that then does mitosis to get back to gamete: the origins of male and female. Isogamy same gamete gametes are the entire organism, the same size but often of two mating types.
