Draw a side-by-side comparison of mitosis and meiosis. Include 6 chromosomes in your drawings at the beginning of mitosis and meiosis. Be sure to label the following in each of your drawings where appropriate: chromosomes/chromatin/sister chromatids, mitotic spindle, asters, centromeres, microtubules, centrosomes, kinetochore, and nuclear membrane.
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.
A diploid cell has 4C genetic material and 16 chromosomes at the start of cell division. Identify number of set/s of chromosomes per cell after mitosis, number of set/s of chromosomes at Telophase 1, and number of chromosomes per cell at Telophase 1.
