Meiosis

2

(Graded assignment) Use a textbook or the pdf at GCR to define the following key terms.  Please include a sketch if possible.

  • Meiosis

  • Gamete

  • Haploid

  • Diploid

  • Zygote

  • Homologous Chromosome

  • Tetrad

  • Crossing Over

3

Standards: H.B.4C.1 and H.B.4C.3

  • H.B.4C.1 Develop and use models of sex cell formation (meiosis) to explain why the DNA of the daughter cells is different from the

DNA of the parent cell.

  • H.B.4C.3 Construct explanations for how meiosis followed by fertilization ensures genetic variation among offspring within the same family and genetic diversity within populations of sexually reproducing organisms.

4

Essential Questions

  • How many sets of chromosomes are there in most adult organisms?

  • How is meiosis different from mitosis?

  • What is a karyotype?

  • How does a cell become haploid?

  • How may I make good choices for my health?

5

Vocabulary Terms, in full.

Meiosis, Diploid, Fertilization, Daughter Cells, Gametes, Sex Cells, Prophase I, Homologous Chromosomes, Sister Chromatids, Centromere, Crossing Over, Metaphase I, Independent Assortment, Anaphase I, Telophase I, Cytokinesis, Haploid, Prophase II, Metaphase II, Anaphase II, Trisomy, Monosomy, Sex Chromosomes

Meiosis: Sexual Reproduction

  • Two parents combine their DNA to make offspring that have unique DNA; not clones of the parent.

  • The offspring have a combination of the genes of each parent.

media

Humans get one chromosome in each pair from each parent.

33

media
  • Female gametes are called eggs, and male gametes are called sperm.

  • They each have only half of the chromosomes (contains genes that code for traits).

  • Eggs and sperm are haploid cells. Meaning, there is one copy of each chromosome.

  • Other cells have two of each chromosome, meaning they are diploid cells.
