What type of cells are produced through the use of meiosis?

an individuals gamete cells (sperm or egg cells).

an individuals white blood cells

How would you be able to tell if two chromosomes were homologous?

Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes that are the same. These chromosomes cross-over during prophase I, within which the chromosomes share genetic information (DNA).

Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes that are the same. These chromosomes cross-over during anaphase I, within which the chromosomes share genetic information (DNA).

Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes that are the same. These chromosomes cross-over during metaphase I, within which the chromosomes share genetic information (DNA).

Homologous chromosomes are chromosomes that are the same. These chromosomes cross-over during prophase II, within which the chromosomes share genetic information (DNA).

Which of the following events occurs in both meiosis and mitosis?

interphase - this occurs only one in both meiosis and mitosis

prophase I - the major event is crossing-over.

anaphase I - this is where the homologous chromosomes are separated.

metaphase I - This is where homologous chromosomes line up in pairs in the middle of the cell.

Which of the following processes occurs only in meiosis, but not in mitosis?

Prophase I - Crossing-over occurs, within which the chromosomes are sharing their DNA with identical genes.

Interphase - this is where the cell performs cellular processes essential for life.

Metaphase I - This is where the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

there is no alikeness between meiosis and mitosis.

How can the cells that result from a meiotic division II be genetically described?

Four new genetically different cells

Two new genetically identical cells

Four new genetically identical cells

Four genetically identical & different cells

According to the image, what percent of the cell is in mitosis?

10 Percent of the cell is in mitosis

50 Percent of the cell is in mitosis

90 Percent of the cell is in mitosis

The cell is always conducting mitosis.

All cells must undergo mitosis to reproduce new cells?

False - Brain and nerve cells do not undergo mitosis to create new cells.

True - All cells within living things must undergo mitosis to create new cells.

In general, what causes cancer within living things?

Cancer can be caused by the uncontrollable cell growth within a living thing. This uncontrollable cell growth goes undetected, and is too late when cells find the cells that are reproducing uncontrollably.

Cancer can be caused by cells that have not fully grown within living things. In turn, these cells tend to stay stuck together creating tumors in living things.

Cancer is usually inherited by your parents, thus cancer cells are already in living things that have similar genetics as their parents that have cancer.

Looking at the image provided on quizizz, the homologous chromosomes are performing an important process. What is the process that is occurring between the homologous chromosomes?

the chromosomes found within the cell are aligned in the nucleus so they can further cell division.

The chromosomes found within the cell are pairing up with other chromosomes that are similar and unalike within gene combination.

The chromosomes found within the cell are pairing up with other chromosomes that are alike, and are performing a process called crossing-over.

During this phase of mitosis I, the homologous chromosomes (example: homologous chromosomes = alike pairs) are crossing-over within which they are sharing the genetic material (DNA). This process allows for genetic diversity, which allows a person to have the same hair color as their grandparents, but not their parents.

Crossing-over is an important process in meiosis cell division in that:

it allows for genetic recombination within gametes found in an individual. This is why you may have blonde hair, but you mom or dad does not have blonde hair.

it allows for the chromosomes to split apart during prophase I, within which they are able to pair up and design the DNA that makes up an individuals gametes.

it allows for people to have many different cells that provide the structure to form new somatic cells.
