50 μm SALL Figure 3. Grasshopper testis with differential staining and viewed under a microscope. Encircle the cell and label the specific stage in the meiosis it displays. Identify as many as you can witha minimum of two cells representing different stages. Make sure to specify whether the stage belongs to meiosis I or II. If you identify a cell at prophase I, then specify the substage.

A cell (2n = 4) has undergone cell division. Daughter cells have the following chromosome content. Has this cell undergone mitosis, meiosis I, or meiosis II?
Match the phase of cell division with the following diagrams. In these cells, 2n = 4. a. anaphase of meiosis I b. interphase of mitosis c. metaphase of mitosis d. metaphase of meiosis I e. metaphase of meiosis II
Figure 13.6 Which of the following statements about nondisjunction is true? Nondisjunction only results in gametes with n+1 or n-1 chromosomes. Nondisjunction occurring during meiosis II results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction during meiosis I results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction always results in four different kinds of gametes.
At which stage of meiosis are sister chromatids separated from each other? a. prophase I b. prophase ll c. anaphase I d. anaphase ll
A cell has a diploid number of 6 (2n = 6). a. Draw the cell in metaphase of meiosis I. b. Draw the cell in metaphase of mitosis. c. How many chromosomes are present in a daughter cell after meiosis I? d. How many chromatids are present in a daughter cell after meiosis II? e. How many chromosomes are present in a daughter cell after mitosis? f. How many pairs of homologous chromosomes are visible in the cell in metaphase of meiosis I?
BPA and Abnormal Meiosis In 1998, researchers at Case Western University were studying meiosis in mouse oocytes (germ cells) when they saw an unexpected and dramatic increase of abnormal events (FIGURE 12.6). Improper segregation of chromosomes during meiosis is one of the main causes or human genetic disorders. The spike in abnormal meiosis began right after the mouse facility started washing the animals' plastic cages and water bottles in a new, alkaline detergent. The detergent had damaged the plastic, which as a result was leaching bisphenol A (BPA). BPA is a synthetic chemical that mimics estrogen, the main female sex hormone in animals. Though it has since been banned for use in baby bottles, BPA is still widely used to manufacture other plastic items and epoxies (such as the coating on the inside of metal cans of food). BPA-free plastics are often manufactured with a related compound, bisphenol S (BPS), that has effects similar to BPA. FIGURE 12.6 Abnormalities in meiosis that occurred after exposure to BPA. Top, the most abnormal meiosis events occurred in mice that were housed in damaged plastic caging with damaged plastic bottles. Damaged plastic releases BPA. Bottom, fluorescent micrographs show the chromosomes (red) and spindle (green) in nuclei of mouse germ cells in metaphase I. A Normal metaphase; BD abnormal metaphase. Which group of mice had the most meiotic abnormalities in their oocytes?
