Imagine that you are a cell with 88 chromosomes undergoing meiosis How many chromosomes would your daughter cells contain?

As two students, who will be designated Student J and Student K, were studying together, they argued about the differences between Mitosis and Meiosis (both Meiosis I and Meiosis II). Student J maintained that it if they were looking at very good slides under the microscope and concentrated on Metaphase, it would be possible to tell the difference between the cells undergoing Mitosis, the cells undergoing Meiosis I, and the cells undergoing Meiosis II. Student K said it would be impossible to tell which nuclear division was occurring. Assume there are three unlabeled sets of very good slides of the cells of the common pea plant with one set showing Mitosis, one set showing Meiosis I, and one set showing Meiosis II. To repeat, the slides are unlabeled so the students don’t know which process is occurring in which set. However, the students know that the common pea plant has 14 total chromosomes (or 7 pairs of chromosomes). Explain carefully what Student J would be looking for at the…

If there are 4 chromosomes in the parent cell,how many chromosomes wil there be in the daughter cells after mitosis?

From this point on, meiosis is very similar (but not exactly similar) to what happened in mitosis.  How many copies of each type of chromosome end up in the daughter cells of meiosis when it is complete?

Assume that cell does mitosis  Assume that cell does meiosis  What is the diploid number of chromosomes in this organism?  Give the number of chromosomes and the number of DNA molecules per cell present at the stages represented.  I tried to solve them, but I'm not sure what I did right and what was wrong. Please correct it for me.  See that attached photo.

If a cell that was 2n-48 underwent meiosis, how many chromosomes would a daughter cell have? Your Answer: Answer

The gamete is called a (n): The process of gamete production is called: The diploid reproductive cell destined to become a gamete is a (n): Gamete production occurs in the: Number of viable gametes produced per meiotic division: MALE 8. Explain how independent assortment leads to genetic diversity. 9. Explain why crossing over is observed in meiosis but not in mitosis. FEMALE

A dog has78 chromosomes . How many chromosomes will a cell have after it goes through mitosis? And how many chromosomes will dog have after going through meiosis?

Can be more than one answer: Select all of the following that are true of MEIOSIS but not of MITOSIS. a) cell division occurs during cytokinesis b) results in two identical daughter cells c) halves the number of chromosomes in a cell d) spindle fibers contract during anaphase e) tetrads line up on metaphase plate
