- 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.arrow_forwardAfter telophase I of meiosis, the chromosomal makeup of each daughter cell is _____. diploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of a single chromatid haploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of a single chromatid diploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of two chromatids haploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of two chromatidsarrow_forwardThe pairing up of duplicated homologous chromosomes during prophase I of meiosis is called ____ and results in the formation of ______ chromatids consisting of fourarrow_forward

- "Meiosis, oh meiosis, let me tell you what it means. It's a special kind of cell division with some funny little genes. It starts with a cell splitting in two, just like mitosis would; but from there, things get wild and wacky, and I'll tell you if I could. Instead of dividing once more, the cells each split again; creating four brand new cells, not just two like back then. And here's where the magic happens, with chromosomes all pairing up, then swapping bits of info, a dizzying process that can't be summed up. When all is said and done, those four new cells are not quite the same; they've got half the number of chromosomes, and a whole new genetic game. Meiosis, oh meiosis, it's a puzzle that's so much fun. And if you study it like I have, you'll see how it all gets done!"arrow_forwardUnder normal conditions, the members of a pair of homologous chromosomes separate from each other __________________. during anaphase of meiosis I and meiosis II during anaphase of mitosis, meiosis I, and meiosis II only during anaphase of meiosis I only during anaphase of meiosis II only during anaphase of mitosisarrow_forwardIn meiosis _______ are separated during anaphase I, and _______ are separated during anaphase IIarrow_forward
