Antworten
-
Adult eukaryotic cells are diploid.
-
Cells in the ovaries and testes are the only cells which undergo meiosis.
-
Gametic cells are diploid.
-
The ovum or sperm is haploid.

Frage
Choose the correct statements.
Antworten
-
Two gametes which are haploid fuse to make a diploid zygote.
-
Meiosis halves the number of of chromosomes going into gametes.
-
Mitosis creates two haploid daughter cells.
-
Meiosis creates four diploid daughter cells.

Antworten
- True
- False
Frage 4
Frage
Choose the incorrect statement about Meiosis I.
Antworten
-
Crossing over occurs between homologous pairs during metaphase.
-
Four sister chromatids form a tetrad in prophase.
-
Crossing over occurs at a chiasmata, the joining of a locus on each chromatid.
-
In anaphase I, sister chromatids remain attached when the spindles shorten.
Frage 5
Frage

Two haploid cells with doubled chromosomes enter prophase II.
-
Crossing over occurs between sister chromosomes during prophase II.
-
In anaphase II, sister chromatids are pulled apart.
-
At the end of telophase II, two haploid cells are present.

Frage 9
Frage
The structures that move to the spindle poles at
anaphase of meiosis I usually differ from those that
move to the poles at anaphase II with respect to:

gene copy number
-
the ratio of maternal to paternal genes
-
all of the above
Frage 10
Frage
In males, diploid [blank_start]primary[blank_end] spermatocytes undergo meiosis [blank_start]I[blank_end] to produce two [blank_start]haploid[blank_end] secondary spermatocytes. These undergo meiosis [blank_start]II[blank_end] to form haploid spermatids, or, sperm. Tens of [blank_start]millions[blank_end] of these can be produced per day.
In females, 500,000 [blank_start]diploid primary[blank_end] oocytes are present in a six month old fetus. These begin meiosis I but are suspended in [blank_start]prophase I[blank_end] until ovulation. After ovulation, meiosis I [blank_start]finished[blank_end] and produces two haploid cells, one becomes a [blank_start]secondary[blank_end] oocyte and the other becomes the first polar body. The first polar body is suspended in [blank_start]metaphase II[blank_end] until fertilisation, upon which it completes meiosis II and makes two [blank_start]haploid polar bodies[blank_end]. The secondary oocyte undergoes meiosis II to produce the fourth polar body, and the [blank_start]ovum[blank_end], which are both haploid. [blank_start]Less[blank_end] than 500 ovum will be produced in the female lifespan.

Because of sexual reproduction, and because human's haploid number is 23 chromosomes, there are approximately 8 million gametic combinations.
Antworten
