Identify the stages of meiosis described by the following meiotic events/conditions/terms. Write prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, or telophase II. In case the events are found in both stages, write the stages both. 1. Separation of homologous chromosome 2. Four haploid daughter cells are formed.

Write prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, or telophase II. In case the events are found in both stages, write the stages both. 1. Formation of chiasma 2. Each chromatid is considered as full-fledged chromosome. 3. Chromosomes begin to pair off. 4. Spindle microtubules start to attach to the centromere. 5. Tetrads are aligned at the middle of the cell. 6. The sister chromatids separate. 7. Produce 2 haploid daughter cells. 8. The chromosomes line up at the middle of the cell. 9. The sister chromatids move together to the opposite poles. 10. The chromatids reach the poles. 11. The chromosomes in each daughter cell are still duplicated.12. Spindle microtubules attach in the centromere of each haploid daughter cell. 13.
What are chromosomal Defects. List and Explain any 5 of them.
Fill in the cells below showing the process of meiosis of the male's sex chromosomes with non- disjunction occuring during meiosis II. DO NOT show crossing over. Prior to meiosis 44 +XY What are the possible abnormal gametes the male can produce with non-disjunction occurring in Meiosis II? Identify the possible sexual aneuploidy syndrome if these abnormal sperm cells are fertilized by a normal egg cell. Could this man father a Tuner syndrome (XO) child? Could this man father a Klinefelter's syndrome child (XXY)?

a. If cell division during gametogenesis is non-meiotic, what is its consequence to the future generations of diploid organisms? b. How does non-disjunction in meiosis lead to numerical chromosomal aberration?
Shown below are photomicrographs of Rhoeo tradescantia cells undergoing meiosis. Answer the following question for each of the photomicrographs: Identify the cytogenetic abnormality observed (ex. ring, chain, laggard, bridge). Identify the meiotic stage in which these aberrations are observed (as shown in the photomicrograph). Explain how these aberrations are formed and relate to the possible causal mutation(s). Will this result to sterile and/or fertile gametes? Explain.
Fill in the cells below showing the NORMAL process of meiosis of the male's sex chromosomes (XY – the X and Y are representing the entire chromosome, and remember X and Y act like a homologous pair). DO NOT show crossing over. prior to meiosis 44 +XY What are the possible normal gametes produce after meiosis division? Identify the possible sex of the offspring if these normal sperm cells are fertilized by the egg cell.
Having familiarized with the stages of meiosis and the terminologies used to describe this process, identify what is described.1. It is attached to the centromere of the chromosome that aids in the movement of the chromosomes towards the opposite poles 2. The pair of chromosomes inherited from the mother and the other pair from the father 3. It carries identical chromosomes which carry same version of all the genes.
What are the major differences between mitosis and meiosis? Explain this both in terms of the different steps of each event and with regards to the final products of each event. Remember to mention the events which are unique to meiosis and why they are significant.
a. What type of cell division mitosis, meiosis I or meiosis II is shown in this figure? b. What is the diploid number of this organism? c. Provide labels for (i) and (ii)
Are there any factors that can cause an increase in the risk of developing an error in the meiotic division; if so, what are they? The duplication or depletion of a chromosome carries various health risks; what error in the chromosomes would be least harmful and what would be the most harmful for the zygote?
