The cat has a diploid number 2n=38, describe the alignment of chromosomes on the metaphase plate during each phase below and indicate the number of chromosome structures aligned for each phase (single or synapsed structures). In other words, determine the number of structures present at the equatorial plate during metaphase and explain each configuration (the chromosome and chromatid arrangements) composition of each chromatid and if crossing over occurs. a. Mitosis b. Meiosis I c. Meiosis II

illustrate and briefly describe the alignment, pairing, and disjunction ofsister chromatids during mitosis. Include the molecular complexes cohesin and shugoshin and the enzyme separase.
A sexually reproducing organism has the following phenotype DdEeAaTt: The D and E loci are on the same arm of a metacentric chromosome in cis configuration. The A locus is on the long arm of an acrocentric chromosome and the T locus is on a telocentric chromosome. There are no other chromosomes. Using diagrams, show a cell at metaphase of mitosis and show the results of mitosis. Ensure you show the location of the gene loci on the different chromosomes.
Metaphase and Meiosis are distinct cellular processes. Draw and label two cells that illustrate the cell pictured below in Metaphase of Mitosis and Metaphase I of Meiosis. Indicate the position of all chromosomes, centrosomes and microtubules.
In a turtle species, a diploid cell in the G1 phase of the cell cycle contains 22 picograms of DNA (picogram is a measure of the total mass of the DNA present). How much DNA is present in a cell of the same species at prophase II of meiosis (prophase of the second meiotic division)?
Humans cells normally have 46 chromosomes (2n). Specify the number of chromosomes present at each of the following stages. In your answers, determine diploid or haploid number of chromosomes and the count the chromatids as chromosomes. For example: anaphase I of meiosis: 46 (2n) = 92 a. metaphase I of meiosis b. metaphase of mitosis c. telophase I of meiosis d. telophase II of meiosis
consider a diploid cell that contains three pairs of chromosomes designated AA, BB, and CC. Each pair contains a maternal and a paternal member (e.g., Am and Ap, etc.). Using these designations, demonstrate your understanding of mitosis and meiosis by drawing chromatid combinations as requested. Be sure to indicate when chromatids are paired as a result of replication and/or synapsis. You may wish to use a large piece of brown manila wrapping paper or a large cut-up paper bag and work with another student as you deal with these problems. Such cooperative learning may be a useful approach as you solve problems throughout the text. Draw all possible combinations of chromatids during anaphase II in meiosis.
A simple diagram indicating the alterations in genetic content throughout mitosis is shown in the attached picture. Please prepare a similar diagram for meiosis, starting with a diploid cell in G1 (like the picture). Include all of the cells generated at each stage.
In kangaroos, the somatic cells are diploid, having 22 chromosomes. How many chromosomes are present in each cell at metaphase II of meiosis?
