Question
Think about human cells that have 46 chromosomes. Now consider human cells that are undergoing Mitosis vs human cells that are undergoing Meiosis I. Explain very specifically what is lining up at the metaphasic plate in each process (Mitosis vs Meiosis I). (What is lining up, how many, and what is each made of?

How many chromosomes are expected at metaphase II of meiosis?arrow_forwardAs 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…arrow_forwardwhat is in the nucleus at the end of Mitosis and cytokinesis vs what is in the nucleus at the end of Meiosis I and cytokinesis.

- Fill in the blanksarrow_forwardMeiosis is an important cellular process for organisms that reproduce sexually. Two lab partners (A and B) are shown this diagram of a meiotic cell and asked to identify its phase. Partner A believes that this cell is in prophase of the first meiotic division. Partner B believes that this cell has moved past prophase of meiosis I and is in a later phase of meiosis. Which partner is correct, and what evidence accurately would defend their belief? Partner A is correct. The chromosomes have clearly replicated during interphase and are beginning to decondense into chromatin. O Partner A is correct. The nuclear membrane is beginning to re-form and centrioles are beginning to migrate to opposite poles of the cell. Partner B is correct. Homologous chromosomes are no longer paired together, so the cell must be in first phase of meiosis II, not meiosis I. O Partner B is correct. The cell plate is beginning to form between the two centrioles, indicating the cell is actually in later phase of…arrow_forwardI need help with a biology question, please see the image below, thanks Answer the following from the image with letters A,B,C, or D For an organism with a diploid number of 6, how are the chromosomes arranged during metaphase I of meiosis?
