Document Summary

Chromosome theory of inheritance chromosomes are carriers of genes. Mitosis cell division resulting in 2 identical daughter cells w full genetic information. Meiosis cell division resulting in 2 gametes haploid cells with half genetic information. During metaphase chromosome structure can be observed. Chromosomes consist of 2 identical sister chromatids attached at a centromere. Metacentric connected near middle; acrocentric connected near one end. Homologous chromosomes chromosomes that match in size/shape/banding. In humans f=x m=y; all humans (should) have at least one x from mother, second. Sex chromosomes chromosomes that determine sex of offspring chromosome from father determines sex. Sex chromosomes/determining mechanisms vary greatly between species. Heterogametic sex having 2 different sex chromosomes. Criss cross inheritance male inherit from maternal; female inherit from paternal. Hemizygous individuals have half the number of alleles (ie male has one female has 2) Nondisjunction failure of separation of chromosomes during meiosis. Sex-influence traits traits showing up in both sexes with different effects.

1). Explain the significance of the fact that gametes contain half of the chromosome complement of somatic cells. Tell me something about variation, if you have a sibling (if you don't imagine you do) - how is your sibling's genetic make-up similar and/or different from yours? What about your mom and dad?

2). Explain the terms reductional division and equational division. What is reduced or kept equal? To which nuclear divisions do these terms refer?

3). What is the diploid number (2n = ?) of an organism if it has
a) 12 chromosomes at Anaphase of Mitosis?
b) 12 chromosomes at Anaphase I of Meiosis?
c) 12 chromosomes at Anaphase II of Meiosis?

4). Compare/contrast Metaphase I of Meiosis with Metaphase of Mitosis.

5). What are the two mechanisms of variation in Meiosis, and during which stage(s) does each occur?

6). Draw a diagram of a bivalent and label the following parts: centromere, sister chromatids, non-sister chromatids, homologous chromosomes, chiasma.

7). A diploid cell has 1 pair of acrocentric chromosomes (Chromosome 1) and 1 pair of submetacentric chromosomes (Chromosome 2).
Â· Gene X is on Chromosome 1. Gene Y is on the short arm of Chromosome 2 and Gene Z is on the long arm of Chromosome 2.
Â· The maternal chromosomes have the X, y, z alleles, whereas the paternal chromosomes have the x, Y, Z alleles.
Draw these chromosomes, labeling ALL alleles, as they might appear in Metaphase I of Meiosis.

words: euploidy, primary nondisjunction, nomal, nondisjunction, secondary nondisjunction, homologous chromosomes, abnormal, trisomy, monosomy, sister chromatids, aneuploid

1.During meiosis I, ____________ separate and move towards opposite ends of the poles.

2.During meiosis II, ____________ separate and move towards opposite ends of the poles.

3.During meiosis I, if both members of a homologous pair go into the same daughter cell, ____________ is said to occur and no normal gametes are produced.

4.During meiosis II, if the sister chromatids fail to separate and both daughter chromosomes go into the same gamete, ____________ is said to occur. Half the gametes are aneuploid while the other half are euploid.

5.If an egg that contains 24 chromosomes instead of 23 chromosomes is fertilized by a normal sperm, ____________ is said to have occurred.

6.If an egg that contains 22 chromosomes instead of 23 chromosomes is fertilized by a normal sperm, ____________ is said to have occurred.
