Meiosis Meiosis Meiosis Meiosis • Defined: Process where the chromosome number is reduced by half • Gametes created (egg & sperm) • End Result: Four Haploid Cells
Interphase • Same process (G1, S, G2) • Chromatin duplicated
Prophase 1 • Similar as mitosis, except… • Two Events: • 1) Synapsis: Pairing of homologous chromosomes • Dad’s #1 chromosome pairs with Mom’s #1, etc… • The four paired chromatids equals a TETRAD • 2) Crossing Over: Exchange of genes
Metaphase 1 • Homologous chromosomes (tetrads) align along cell equator
Anaphase 1 • Homologous chromosomes are pulled apart to opposite ends • Tetrads separated
Telophase 1 • Cytokinesis divides the cells • Each cell contains 1 of the homologous chromosomes (23 total)
Prophase 2 • Same as mitosis • Note: No new DNA was created (no 2nd interphase)
Metaphase 2 • Remaining chromosomes are aligned at cell equator
Anaphase 2 • Chromatids are pulled to opposite ends
Telophase 2 • Nucleus reforms on the four new cells • Cytokinesis divides the cytoplasm • Chromatids uncoil • End Result: Four haploid cells
Spermato- genesis • Defined: Production of sperm cells • in male testes • Meiosis produces four haploid sperm cells at a time
Oogenesis • Defined: Production of the egg cell (ovum) • In female ovaries • During meiosis I: Cytoplasm distributed unequally • After meiosis II: • 1 cell matures • 3 “Polar Bodies” dissolve
Division of somatic cells Ex: Blood cells, skin cells, nerve cells… End Result: 2 Diploid Cells Importance: Replaces aging cells Importance: Form of asexual reproduction Division of gametes Ex: Sperm and Egg cells End Result: 4 Haploid cells Importance: Reduces the gamete chromosome number by half Mitosis Meiosis
