Meiosis

*Gametes are special cells used in sexual reproduction. It is important that these cells contain 1/2 the normal number of chromosomes than the regular body cells.

*When the sperm and egg unite the resulting zygote will contain the normal number of chromosomes for that organism

Mitosis- formation of body cells. At the end of mitosis each of the 2 daughter cells has 46 chromosomes

•These are your body cells, cells that make up tissues, organs, etc

Meiosis-formation of sex cells called gametes. At the end of meiosis each of the 4 daughter cells has 23 chromosomes.

•They contain half the number of chromosomes

Cell division cell type # of daughter # of

cells chromosomes

Mitosis somatic(body) 2 46(diploid)

Meiosis gametes(sex) 4 23(haploid)

Meiosis reduces the number of chromosomes to half the number in body cells. This is called the haploid number.

Reductive division is necessary so that when reproduction occurs, the zygote contains the necessary 46.Egg(23 chrom) + sperm(23 chrom) = zygote(46 chrom)

Meiosis

There are 2 divisions of meiosis- Meiosis I and Meiosis II. It must be this

way in order to end up with the sex cells only having 23 chromosomes.

Meiosis I

During the first meiotic division, chromosomes are replicated.

1. Prophase I- chromatin makes a copy of itself and begins to coil up

2. Metaphase I- homologous pairs of chromosomes line up together at the middle of the cell. This forms a tetrad(meaning 4).

Homologous chromosomes are paired chromosomes. Each contains genes for the same trait.

3. Anaphase I- homologous chromosomes that form each tetrad separate and move to opposite ends. The centromeres do not split.

4. Telophase I- spindle disappears and the cell divides.

Meiosis IIDuring the second meiotic division, nothing is replicated.

1. Prophase II- centriole doubles, spindle forms

2. Metaphase II- chromosomes line up at the middle

3. Anaphase II- individual chromatids move to opposite ends

4. Telophase II- when the 2 daughter cells divide into 4 new daughter cells, each new daughter cell has 23 chromosomes. This is half the number of the original parent cell.

Meiosis

Meiosis occurs in the testes of the male and is called spermatogenesis. 4 sperm are produced.

And in the ovaries of the female it is called oogenesis. 4 cells are produced but only 1 becomes an egg, the other 3 dissolve.

Quiz #2-yes we never had time to take quiz one, skip it, no that doesn’t mean you get

a hundred for it Michael.
